This episode of Let’s Be Blunt with Montel dives into an inspiring story of resilience, innovation, and breaking boundaries in the cannabis industry. Montel talks with Holly Roeder, an extraordinary entrepreneur who has accomplished what many believe to be impossible.

Holly is the founder of Illinois’s first on-site cannabis consumption lounge, Luna Lounge, and the newly opened Ash & Ivy Dispensary—both female-owned and entirely self-funded.

Holly shares how she taught herself technical law to independently secure an IL cannabis infuser license and later pivoted to creating a groundbreaking consumption lounge.

Against all odds, she also won one of the coveted 55 dispensary licenses out of 2,700 applications, building her dispensary from the ground up with the help of a supportive community.

Listen as Holly and Montel discuss entrepreneurship, challenges as a woman in the cannabis sector, and how her inclusive vision is redefining cannabis culture in underserved areas.

If you're looking for inspiration and insight into the future of cannabis, this is one episode you won’t want to miss. Tune in now to hear Holly’s remarkable story!
