Please Explain CBD and Cannabis

Ok friends, we're diving into CBD, cannabis, THC, anxiety, inflammation, stress, addiction and lots of things in between. CBD is having a moment right now - BUT WHAT IS IT? What does it do? Is it legal? Will it make you high? Is it just a gimmick? And what about pot? Should we Just Say No or is there more to the story?

Luckily, our special guest, Ashley Kingsley co-founder of Ellamenta.com, is well versed in the weed-o-sphere and just so happens to believe women, in particular, can benefit immensely from all the amazing properties of hemp and cannabis.

We ask her allllll the questions, and to be honest - we get a bunch of mind-blowing answers. We can't wait for you to listen and share your thoughts with us! We learned SO MUCH.

Here's some links from our conversation:

Shayna and Tracey have been friends since the 8th grade – that’s over 25 years. After college, they each moved to separate coasts for a decade. They were reunited when they decided to leave big city life and settle down with their families in Denver, Colorado and Facebook told them their daughters are 3 weeks apart. After several play dates, some more childbirth, some unsuccessful pumping, and the overwhelming nature of mommy community boards, The Pump and Dump Show was born.

The show launched in 2012 in a bar in Northwest Denver and quickly grew to a bi-monthly, local staple for new moms to have a night out. In 2014, Shayna and Tracey took The Pump and Dump Show on its first national tour and continue to perform every month to audiences nationwide.
