Dr Callie Seaman has a unique voice in the cannabis industry. Diagnosed with epilepsy as a teenager, it was Callie's dad who suggested she try cannabis as an alternative to the prescription meds that were wrecking her academic career.
This started a life long relationship with cannabis which included Callie working in the local grow shop as a Saturday girl while finishing her degree.
And yet, Callie never considered herself a medical cannabis patient and spent most of her life in denial she had epilepsy at all.
However, the reality soon dawned on Callie when she stopped smoking cannabis recreationally during her PhD and her seizures came back.
Callie went on to be founding director of Aqua Laboratories – a formulator and producer of specialist hydroponic nutrients - and yet she still felt a sense of shame about using cannabis to treat her epilepsy.
Thankfully, Callie has now embraced both her epilepsy (now called George) and is a passionate advocate and educator for the medicinal use of cannabis.
