148. One in 10 Women Suffer From Endometriosis - Here's Why Cannabis Helps with Painful Symptoms
One in 10 women suffer from Endometriosis, yet it takes an average of 10 years for women to receive a diagnosis. Read that again. Endometriosis, a debilitating disease that so many women suffer from — one that can cause infertility, painful periods, GI issues, and countless other symptoms — is among the hardest to diagnose. It can even take undergoing a surgery to discover the source of years-long suffering. That’s why talking about Endometriosis and the unpredictable pain that comes along with it is so important. Thankfully, cannabis has proven to be an incredible tool for women who are struggling with painful Endo symptoms, and in this emotional episode, we hear from women who found that relief.
Thank you to our guests Jessica Murnane and Kerrigan Behrens.

150. Get To Know Our Host, Ellen Scanlon: Part 1
In today’s show, our host Ellen Scanlon trades in her interviewer hat for a spin in the hot seat with journalist and podcaster Skye Pillsbury. As Ellen walks us through some of her interests and early career moves, she opens up about the terrible accident she suffered that completely changed the trajectory of her life. While very challenging, this accident is what led her to discover the health benefits of cannabis — and it’s the reason why she does what she does each day to help more women benefit from the plant’s healing properties. Tune in for part one of this series!
