In honor of Women's History Month and International Women's Day, we're celebrating with Chil CEO Ana Hory, who is dedicated to ensuring women everywhere are empowered to integrate cannabis into their lives.'


Her thoughts:

“The new cannabis consumer is mostly female 45+ years of age. They’re becoming aware of how the plant can benefit them in so many ways — from pain relief, to better sleep, to anxiety/stress management, to improved intimacy experience, and so much more. This inspired me to join the movement. I’m determined to spread the word and hopefully clarify some of the confusion that might exist around this incredible medicinal herb. To all the amazing women (YOU) out there, Happy International Women’s Day!”

Landmark PTSD Cannabis OK

For years, military veterans suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) have sought alternative treatments beyond traditional pharmaceuticals. Now, after years of regulatory hurdles and advocacy, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved a groundbreaking Phase 2 clinical trial to study the effects of smoked marijuana on veterans with moderate to severe PTSD. Funded by tax revenue from Michigan's legal cannabis sales, this research represents a monumental step toward validating cannabis as a legitimate treatment option for PTSD.

PTSD affects millions of veterans, with many turning to medical marijuana for relief. Anecdotal evidence from veterans suggests that cannabis can alleviate anxiety, improve sleep, and reduce the emotional intensity of traumatic memories. Yet, despite its inclusion in many state-level medical marijuana programs, rigorous clinical data supporting its efficacy has been sparse.

Three proposed license types include “Supplemental” for existing Marijuana Establishments, “Hospitality,” and “Event Organizer”
