040: MJ Unpacked Part 2 – Featuring Carrie Mapes and Patty Papas from Hello Again

Welcome to part two of our MJ Unpacked experience! In this episode, we take some time to reflect and share some final thoughts on our trip to the MJ Unpacked conference. We’ll discuss our biggest takeaways and highlight some of our favorite moments and products. We also have another special interview for you. Our guests today are Carrie Mapes and Patty Papas, founders of Hello Again. They have created a cannabis-powered vaginal suppository with soothing botanicals to provide relief from the physical and emotional symptoms that come with menopause. It’s a highly innovative product for women who can’t get relief in other ways, and it’s given them the opportunity to share their wisdom and support women like never before. For those that have never experienced menopause, imagine having your hormones change while going through puberty, but dealing with those symptoms for a period of time that can be three times as long. Increased anxiety, sweatiness, lack of sleep, body pain, headaches and memory loss, these are all symptoms that women struggle with and why this product is so unique. In today’s episode, Carrie and Patty talk about how they created a product with the medicinal benefits from cannabis, how the THC aspect works without making you feel high, and why they’re focused on helping other women continue to live vibrant lives. KEY TAKEAWAYS How Carrie and Patty first became interested in creating their cannabis product. The potential use cases for cannabis suppositories. The symptoms that they are trying to help alleviate for women. Why some women might not even realize they’re in menopause, and why there is a lack of awareness on this topic. How Hello Again is spreading awareness of their product.
