In this episode of the Willy's World Podcast, Will chats with cannabis guru Lance C Lambert. Lance has spent years cultivating brands and telling stories, formerly in the mainstream digital media and marketing space prior to making the jump to the cannabis industry. Lambert joined the Denver Post team in 2013, just as they were launching their cannabis industry-specific news site, The Cannabist. It was a natural fit for him to focus on digital media operations for the niche site. He has since stayed firmly in the cannabis industry lane and went on to head up media at WeedMaps, taking their content global before being tapped to run business development on the herbal side at Boveda, focusing on international growth and diversification. Subsequently he worked with Green Flower Media to expand and strengthen their position as the worldwide authority in cannabis education. Lambert brings his varied knowledge and passion-first attitude to GreenBroz, where he's been tasked with growing the company's footprint with an eye toward moving into emerging markets around the globe. As a cancer survivor, and having grown up in Northern California, he has seen firsthand the benefits of cannabis, and how it can be an integral part of a healthy lifestyle. Having spent the last few years speaking at expos and conventions around the world, he enjoys connecting with others who are interested in the many different facets of the industry. When not on the clock or on a motorcycle, Lance can be found hosting Cure to Consumption on Haze Radio Network, or Seed to Social with the Future Cannabis Project. He also enjoys writing a monthly column for MG Magazine on the international movement around cannabis.

**Ready to sign-up for the 2020 Hormone Summit? You can do so here** Without a doubt, you've heard about the many benefits of CBD, considering it's everywhere these days. But do you know how supportive CBD or THC, or best yet, the *combination* of the two can be for reproductive and autoimmune issues? In today's interview, I sat down with Dr. Michele Ross, a neuroscientist that studied addiction who fell into using cannabis after debilitating illness struck her and nothing else would help. Once wheelchair bound and on oxygen after surviving deadly bloodclots, Dr. Ross found her way to plant medicine after deciding she couldn't live a life using opiods to just get through. She found her way to thriving. We have a powerful discussion about how the proper use of cannabis can not only help the extreme pain of fibromyalgia, but also period pain, menopause, and chemically-induced menopause. We dive into how cannabis suppositories may even help with fibroids and ovarian cysts, plus other issues in the uterus. I was blown-away with what I learned, and I'm sure you will be too. This is information that *everyone* should be aware of. And we definitely chat about her time on Big Brother 11! Dr. Michele Ross holds a doctorate in Neuroscience and an Executive MBA. As both a patient with multiple chronic illnesses including fibromyalgia and a scientist, she has been a leader in drug policy reform, patient advocacy, and cannabis education. Dr. Ross is the author of five books including Vitamin Weed: A 4-Step Plan to Prevent and Reverse Endocannabinoid Deficiency and the upcoming CBD Oil For Health. She has created educational courses on multiple platforms including the Holistic Cannabis Academy, Green Flower Media, and her own sites including fibrouniversity.com and drmicheleross.com. Dr. Ross is known for breaking boundaries as the first scientist to star on a reality television series in the world, finishing 4th place on the hit CBS series Big Brother 11. She has been featured on the Today Show, the Doctors, Vice, and many other media outlets, and now lives in Las Vegas.

What training does the new cannabis workforce need to succeed?This week we welcome Max Simon to the show, who is the founder and CEO of Green Flower Media, a cannabis education platform based from California. We're super excited to have Max on the show! In this episode, we discuss cannabis and education - exploring the barriers faced when educating about the plant, how important it is to understand how to use cannabis properly, and Green Flower Media's plans for the future. Max left us with some incredible quotes, so do check out the show notes here: https://www.cannabis-conversation.com/blogs/episode33You can also: ⠀→ Listen to the episode on our website http://bit.ly/2Wc9aiW → Review us on iTunes http://bit.ly/reviewthecannabisconversation→ Listen on Spotify http://bit.ly/listenonspotifytcc→ Follow us on Twitter http://bit.ly/twittertcc→ Follow us on Instagram http://bit.ly/instagramtcc→ Like us on Facebook http://bit.ly/facebooktcc→ Subscribe on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCj0nd0-r_GAZ7snWk39yCYA/?sub_confirmation=1Episode SummaryMax has been a cannabis patient in California for decades and uses it to control his ADD. He is an advocate for the benefits of the plant.In the early 2000's, Max came across a unique opportunity to work with Deepak Chopra, developing the products side of his business where he created around 50 products, worked on his digital strategy, online channels and developed his brand. He reached hundreds of millions of people through online and offline methods. This gave him the opportunity to bring an idea (mind body principles and meditation) to the masses which was previously misunderstood and not necessarily backed by science. Max sees cannabis in the same way, and draws parallels between the two experiences.One of the reasons that cannabis has become so popular is that the benefits have continued to gain momentum and traction as an effective tool for pain, sleep, anxiety, depression, and stress.Secondly, cannabis is starting to become preferable over alcohol due to its positive properties. Alcohol only has one delivery method (drinking), it has been shown to cause health problems, addictions and it is a neurotoxin. Whereas cannabis  can be consumed in multiple ways, has neuro protective qualities, can be used both socially and medically.Green Flower Media serves a number of audiences with different cannabis education products including a streaming subscription service, and an online training platform for different sectors of the space including medical application trainings and cultivation trainings.Max is incredibly fascinated by the health and wellness benefits which cannabis brings and believes that a lot of the world is suffering due to stress, lack of purpose or pain. He believes that these ailments can be ‘almost entirely' solved by cannabis once how to use it properly is understood. The Green Flower Academy's biggest success stories come from people who have come into the cannabis industry from other professions. Their sector specific learning facilitates this.The Green Flower Academy are also working with colleges in the USA to power cannabis curriculums around the topics of law and horticulture which will launch in 2020.Due to the different ways in which cannabis markets have developed throughout the world, Max estimates that 80% of Green Flower

With the amount of big money flowing into the cannabis industry, inclusion is becoming a larger topic for those advocates and the people whose livelihoods were made from this plant long before it was “safe” to operate. It is becoming clearer that indeed, the playing field is NOT EVEN. Many in the industry are finding that despite having been in the industry for years, even decades, they are losing jobs to those with formal degrees and coming from conventional industries. Inclusion goes beyond social equity, where the focus is righting the wrongs of the drug war and giving those that served time for doing what former politicians and police officers are now profiting off of. Inclusion is about keeping everyone that got the industry to where it is now IN the industry, instead of being left behind by those with deep pockets and a focus on profit.    Topics covered Social equity Inclusion from an investors perspective The importance of data in the bigger scheme of things Are industry lobby groups lobbying for inclusion or the interests of businesses  How can investors and bankers impact inclusion What we, the original cannabis advocates and activists, can do to remain relevant in the face of big money with opposing interests Strategies we can learn from traditional industries to employ in our favor  Ways we can play the game like the politicians and big money/big businesses do through utilizing things like opportunity zones to further our cause and lift our people up The importance of staying in the game, despite the challenges How a unified voice and a strong community is the only way to fight money and outside influence   3 important takeaways: Stop trying to reinvent the wheel. Learn from other industries and use their tactics to our advantage We need to learn to deploy institutional money in a positive way. Doing good is not mutually exclusive from making a profit.  Be wary of what data you're sharing, and who you're giving your data to. Before signing up for a cultivation app - think of how that data can be used if big AG were to purchase it. Sometimes something that seems easy and efficient in the short term may not be helpful in the long run   Guest Bio and Social Media Links: Colby is a 22 year veteran of the financial services industry working with many of the largest institutional and private investors.  As CEO of Quiver Holdings, LLC Colby has provided strategic guidance to private companies throughout their capital raising campaigns.
