Breaking Barriers: Jeanette Ward on Cannabis, Capital, and Community
In this episode of CashColorCannabis, we sit down with Jeanette Ward—founding member of the Minority Cannabis Business Association and the powerhouse behind the Nu Project. From her early days helping build one of the nation's first equity-focused cannabis organizations to now leading efforts to fund and elevate Black and Brown cannabis entrepreneurs in the Pacific Northwest, Jeanette shares a journey rooted in purpose, policy, and progress.
We dive into how NuLeaf is bridging the funding gap, the legacy of MCBA, and the businesses she’s most excited about supporting right now. Whether you’re an aspiring entrepreneur, investor, or someone passionate about equity in cannabis, this is a conversation you don’t want to miss.
