The Canna Mom Show episodes

  • Nurse Julie Battel and Post Vegas Excitement

    The Canna Mom Show went to Vegas in December to attend the Women of Cannabis Conference. Wow! So before introducing today's guest, Nurse Julie Battel of CED Clinic in Brookline, Massachusetts, Amie and Joyce tell what happened in Vegas. They share not just their introductions to amazing women like Hash Queen Mila Jansen , Business Entrepreneur Stormy Simon, and Nichole West (who shared her remarkable story falling into the rabbit hole of cannabis regulations and losing her way), but stories about all the women from across the country who gathered at the powerful event.

    Then they introduce their guest, Julie Battel, who has a background in public health, obstetrics and was a mid-wife for thirteen-years. When she was diagnosed with an auto immune disease that left her with tremors  she had to pivot professionally and started down the path in cannabis care at CED Clinic in Brookline, Massachusetts with Dr. Benjamin Caplan.

    Julie shares her own cannabis health story and then explains the process for medical card certification, which can feel intimidating but is really quite easy. So if you've been thinking about getting a medical card in Massachusetts, this is a show for you.

  • Bongs On The Beach with Doreen Sullivan of My Bud Vase

    The spark of Doreen Sullivan's big idea, a vintage bong business, was lit on the day she was trying to hide a bong from an unexpected visitor. When Doreen placed it on a shelf next to her decorative flower vases she realized they were twins!

  • Cannabis Friendly Weddings!

    On today's episode Amie and Joyce are on location at the Cannabis Wedding Expo in Cambridge, Massachusetts, Joyce's hometown. They sit down with Madlyne Kelly who, along with her partner Bec Koop, founded Irie Weddings and Events in Denver, Colorado in 2016.

    Bec and Madlyne both arrived in Denver from the West Coast in 2014 just as cannabis legalization was introduced. The idea for Irie Weddings and Events was sparked when Bec was running a floral business while working at a medical marijuana dispensary. In just five short years Bec's spark of an idea is now a multi-state event business and the first cannabis catering business with liability insurance. Very important!

    Madlyne shares insights from her work in medical marijuana compliance and how that influences her work in recreational cannabis event planning. And she explains how her passion for compliance and responsible social consumption impact her mission to make all couples feel accepted and celebrated on their wedding day.

    Joyce and Amie are especially excited to share this story with their Boston listeners because Irie Weddings and Events is now up and running for Boston!

  • Curated Self-Care with CBD Products

    Marie Evan's motto for her mail-order CBD company, Get Colette, is Define Your Shine! Not only is she a powerhouse for her own CBD business, but she is empowering other women owned businesses in the CBD space. Marie's idea to introduce New England women to the potential CBD can have in their lives sprang from a survey she conducted a few years ago, and her own mother's experience using CBD to sleep.

    As the daughter of a police officer, her personal transition into the legal cannabis world is only the beginning of the cannabis story she shares with Joyce and Amie. Marie explains how she is incorporating her corporate work experience in the wild-west world of CBD, the creation of her website which launched on November 4, 2019, and how she is creating positive CBD experiences for all her customers.

    Amie and Joyce talk with Marie about the many amazing products she is supporting and the stories of the women behind the brands. Marie talks about  how she explains to her six-year old what cannabis and CBD are and, of course, Marie reveals her favorite way to consume after Amie shares one of her favorite things.

  • Breaking Barriers and Building Up Women Businesses with Ladyjane Branding

    On this episode of The Canna Mom Show, Joyce and Amie speak with Jennifer Whetzel, a cannabis entrepreneur who is at the center of breaking barriers and building up women businesses. She founded Ladyjane Branding in 2018 to empower her canna-sisters in the emerging cannabis industry. Jennifer shares her story of creating the cannabis archetypes she uses to help Ladyjane Branding clients find their brand and their audience. Her story includes illness and triumph and a professional purpose to help women entrepreneurs  stand out and sell more. . Jennifer is also a sponsor of the upcoming @women_of_cannabis_conference in Las Vegas on December 10, 2019, founded by Stacy Thompson and Annie Epley. At that event Jennifer will be co-hosting an exclusive one day master class titled Brand, Biz and Bucks, which is just one part of a full day of networking, collaboration and empowerment for women in the cannabis industry.

    As if that weren't enough, Jennifer also shares how Ladyjane Branding and Wolfe Research & Consulting are coming together for an ambitious longitudinal study about women’s experiences in the cannabis industry — why they enter, their hurdles and opportunities, their successes and failures, and why some ultimately leave. Wow! . Lastly, listen to the end to learn Jennifer's favorite way to consume,  Amie 's favorite thing, and to uncover what brand archetype The Canna Mom Show is. Can you guess??
