Summary

If you struggle with sleep, pain, or anxiety, you've probably tried many medications and sleeping pills only to end up frustrated by side effects, poor results, and thinking that you're treating symptoms instead of actually feeling better.

That's why I'm excited to welcome back Joe Sheehey, founder of Cured Nutrition and a former aerospace engineer who left his corporate career at Lockheed Martin to improve the lives of millions of people. Joe's path to entrepreneurship was influenced by his own mental health battles, a life-saving turning point in college, and a growing conviction that there has to be a better, more holistic approach to healing than the medications most doctors prescribe.

Joe breaks down what cannabinoids like CBD, CBN, and low-dose THC actually do in the body and why the proper dosage is the difference between improving versus feeling anxious and turned off. We talk about how the stigma that clouds people's minds about the health benefits from cannabis keeps people from exploring options that could genuinely help them, and why responsible, non-intoxicating products are creating an alternative path for millions of people.

And make sure you listen until the very end, because Joe explains why the government has become a major threat to the full-spectrum hemp industry, why responsible brands are being swept up in unregulated high-dose products, and what Joe is doing to protect access through a new advocacy effort to save the industry.

If you're cannabis curious or simply looking for a better way to support your physical health, mental health and optimize your sleep, this episode will be an eye-opener and hopefully give you the confidence to try it for yourself.

I'm going to share my story of how at the most painful moment of my life,

1:14.8

1:24.8

how a tiny bit of cannabis completely eliminated my pain, gave me
