A Trusted Nurse Healing with Cannabis
Megan Mbengue is the CEO and Founder of Trusted Canna Nurse, which she founded when she realized there were very few medical professionals who were well versed in cannabis and CBD – an issue we discuss so often on The Canna Mom Show. Megan has been a nurse for over ten years, specializing in oncology, labor delivery and most recently hospice & palliative care. She has received national certifications in all three specialties and is currently working towards a Masters of Science in Medical Cannabis Therapeutics.
Megan is an active member of the -Society of Cannabis Clinicians-Cannabis Nurses Network and -American Cannabis Nurses Association.
Joyce and Megan talk about her work with seniors, her team at Trusted Canna Nurse, her own experience with psychedelics and why her wonderful videos on Instagram are banned on TikTok.
Joyce also speaks with the Betty Crocker of cannabis brownies mixes made right here in Massachusetts! Sabrina Clebnick is the founder of Clebby’s, she is a young entrepreneur and is now focusing her business passion and baking skills on building a very unique cannabis business.
The Culture Corner:
The new Julia Louis-Dreyfus movie – You Hurt My Feelings. A story of the way we speak to the people we care for and how we can still hurt each other even if intentions are otherwise.
