Mental Health for (Cannabis and Non-Cannabis) Entrepreneurs
Event Information
Description
BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND!! MENTAL HEALTH FOR ENTREPRENEURS! All Cannapreneurs and Entrepreneurs Welcome!!
#F❤CKTHESTIGMA #ENDTHESTIGMA
Canada is a country of small businesses, and also the first G20 nation to legalize Cannabis federally. These factors have combined to create an explosion of Canadian Cannabis Entrepreneurs, many of whom touch and don’t touch the plant as part of their offerings but face additional barriers and adversity.
Discussions about the mental health and well-being of entrepreneurs are markedly absent here in Canada. Our goals with this talk is to bring Canadian Cannabis Entrepreneurs together to educate, collaborate, and discuss mental health together.
Learn about the mental health issues entrepreneurs report, the impact of these concerns on business and personal lives, the strategies that can be used to manage these issues, and how to overcome the barriers faced in accessing services and support.
Develop practical tools and gather resources to help improve work-life balance, at both the personal and organizational levels. Learn how being clear on core values can provide the "glue" to coping and thriving as a cannapreneur, as well to avoid overwork and burnout, and develop resilience in the face of stress and adversity.
Knowing you’re not alone is the first step, developing knowledge, skills, and the connections needed to prevent or reduce existing issues is the next. Join us as we create an opportunity for Canadian Cannapreneurs to learn about your mental health and connect with others in the space.

Pinche Back: Help Sami's Spine Heal
We are also welcoming donations to Pinche Back: Help Sami's Spine Heal, a GoFundMe campaign to support our co-organizer and host Sami Sallo. Sami has been battling a degenerative spinal disease on her own for a long time and she needs your help! Her diagnosis is a Stage 5 (Advanced!) Protrusion in her Sacral/Lumbar area, protruding into her spinal cord. You can donate when you register for this event or head over to our GoFundMe page.
Looking forward to seeing you there and thanks for your support!
