Have you ever wondered where the cannabis plant originated from or who named the plant, claiming its species and medicinal properties? Did you know that burned cannabis seeds were found in tribal burial mounds in Siberia, dating back to 3000 BC? Up until the early 1900s, cannabis was a very common pharmaceutical used for so many different purposes. So what happened? How did this ancient, well-known, helpful plant go from being widely used and accepted for centuries transition to an illegal substance and stigmatized weed? In today's episode, Stacy and Steph break down the history of the cannabis plant, one of humanity's oldest cultivated crops.

Stacy and Steph share their story of accessing medical cannabis as breast cancer patients. As co-founders of EduCanNation, a Canadian nonprofit organization that provides evidence-based cannabis education and supports certified cannabis educators, Steph and Stacy share the knowledge they have learned as certified cannabis educators to help advocate for the patient and the plant.  Their stories of staying positive and hopeful despite the hardship of a breast cancer diagnosis, helps to remind us that we are always stronger than we think we are.
