The Canna Curious Podcast: Conversations on Cannabis, Wellness & Women’s Health

When pain is constant, medicine becomes sacred. So what happens when the system takes it away?

Sharna lives with fibromyalgia, a condition that brings relentless, widespread pain. Through trial and error, she found relief with legal medical cannabis—until she enters the hospital. Each time she’s admitted for care, her cannabis is confiscated and she’s put back on opioids, a medication that makes her violently ill. In this deeply personal conversation, Sharna shares the physical and emotional toll of being denied the medicine that works for her. 

It’s a story of resilience, and the ongoing battle for patient rights in a system that still hasn’t caught up with the science—or the humanity. I’m grateful to Sharna for her time today so lets spark up this conversation

Sharna can be contacted @fibroadvocate1

In this episode we chat through Alice’s journey with Cannabis. We hear how Alice used medicinal cannabis when she got pregnant with her second child. 

Alice Davy is a single mother to two young boys and a medicinal cannabis
patient who navigates life with endometriosis, multiple sclerosis and ADHD.

She is a passionate advocate for cannabis reform including women’s and
children’s health. She has been a part of the 'Let Patients Drive' campaign in
Victoria with the Legalise Cannabis Party and works tirelessly to address
the impact of current driving laws on medicinal cannabis patients. She has
also been an active participant of the LCP in order to promote the
legalisation of the use of medicinal cannabis and driving, including the
importance of her diseases impacting her quality of life as a single mother
on a daily basis. Alice’s advocacy began several years ago when she was
discriminated for her use of cannabis as a single mother and more importantly a woman.
