Is Cannabis A Boy's Club? The Importance of Women in Cannabis
Manage episode 322387302 series 3019564
Did you know that at 8% cannabis actually has a higher rate of female CEOs than most other industries? In a 2019 study, nearly 37% of executive-level positions in the field were held by women, whereas the national average for other industries is only 21%.
In this episode, we talk with Rachelle Gordon, a journalist and copywriter focused on cannabis and psychedelics. We dive deep into what’s happening in the cannabis and psychedelics industry, pain points, potential solutions, and how women can find their place in this market.
Rachelle has been featured in several outlets including High Times, Cannabis Now, Beard Bros, MG Retailer, Cannabis & Tech Today, and many more. She was also part of the The Women in Cannabis Study Report recently released on March 3rd. It's a culmination of over two years of research and helps guide the narrative of a more equitable industry. Check it out at https://www.womenincannabis.study/.
