In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Chanda Macias of Women Grow to discuss the challenges and opportunities for women—especially Black women—in industries where they are underrepresented. We explore the power of expansion through networking, the importance of connecting women with resources for equitable participation, and the impact of healthcare policies on research capabilities. With rescheduling changes on the horizon and safe banking still a barrier, how can women-owned businesses secure more access to capital—when less than 3% receive funding from banks? Dr. Macias also shares her decision to feature Brittney Griner as a keynote speaker for Women Grow, highlighting the importance of resilience and representation. Tune in for critical insights and strategies on moving forward in an evolving landscape.Hosted by Michael "PoppaDukes" Serrano SPONSORED IN PART BY PROTEUS420 & NEW YORK CITY CANNABIS EXCHANGE.THE OG SOCIAL NETWORK PODCAST PROMOTES CULTURAL, ECONOMIC, & POLITICAL CONVERSATIONS IN THE NEW YORK CANNABIS COMMUNITY AND BEYOND.
