This week on Let’s Be Blunt with Montel, we’re diving deep into the world of medical cannabis advocacy with a true pioneer, Steph Sherer. As the founder, Board President, and Executive Director of Americans for Safe Access (ASA), Steph has spent over two decades championing patient rights, shaping policy, and driving progress in the medical cannabis movement.
In this two-part conversation, Montel and Steph explore her journey from founding ASA in 2002 to leading groundbreaking advocacy campaigns that have transformed the landscape of medical cannabis in the U.S. and beyond. From tackling federal barriers and shaping international drug policy to ASA’s “second act” of integrating cannabis-based medicines into the U.S. healthcare system, Steph shares her unparalleled insights and experiences.
Part 1 delves into the origins of ASA, the challenges of early advocacy, and the organization’s most significant achievements over the past 20 years. Steph also breaks down the potential impact of new hemp regulations and what they mean for patients and businesses.
This is a must-listen for anyone passionate about patient rights, cannabis policy, and the future of medical cannabis. Tune in to hear Steph’s incredible journey and learn how you can get involved in the fight for safe and legal access to cannabis-based medicine.
