Season 3 Episode 03: Smokers vs Non-smokers- can we still be friends?
This week I had the pleasure of sitting down with not just one, but two wonderful guests- Amanda and Annie came over and we chatted about the boundaries they’re breaking with their podcast called Highladies- a female led conversation that discusses all things cannabis. Their aim is to reduce the stigma around cannabis, but specific through the female lens. We chatted about the muted influence and presence of women in the cannabis community, and we addressed the negative stigmas that surround its use. We got into the importance of language and how we can use it so we can better understand each other and create conversations of respect and compassion, rather than judgement. We talked about the challenges we've faced from family and friends about life choices, mental health, and motherhood.
For me, talking to both Amanda and Annie, was informative, genuine and it felt… easy; proving that we do not have to mirror our lifestyles, have the same opinions and views, in order to find connection and commonality between each other- its not about the choices we make that is an issue, its the judgments that we are told we should have, that creates the divide.
