Imagine you’re in an auditorium full of 1,200 women united around the same cause. You hear excitement in everyone’s voice. Your skin tingles with anticipation. As the lights dim, one of the Founding Mothers takes the stage and you know you’re in for a wild ride.

The 2016 Women Grow Leadership Summit drew the largest group of women ever assembled to lead the cannabis industry.

We were lucky enough to interview 16 of them for “Mary Janes: The Women of Weed”. Here are some snapshots of what happened behind-the-scenes:
