Michigan Hemp and CBD Regulations with Kelly Young
Joyce met today's guest at the MJBiz Conference in Las Vegas this past December, and today Kelly Young joins The Canna Mom Show from her home in Central Lake in Northern Michigan. Kelly's cannabis story includes her journey to heal from personal trauma, and her work healing others through her non-profit organization Free Relief. She has pursued several different paths in the cannabis industry that were all built upon her experience in her family's Michigan grocery business.
Kelly is passionate about her professional pivot into cannabis healing and has persevered despite numerous set-backs and road blocks. Although the constantly changing cannabis regulations required her to reconsider her original idea of mobile oil extractions, she is now focused on helping Michigan farmers and businesses through consultation at 7 Leaf Consultants, in addition to her advocacy and a line of CBD products sold through MyTCBD. For a 20% discount please use the code cannamom, good through 3/2/2020.
