"Every conversation I have with women revolves around their need to be a part of something greater than themselves," Patterson said. "And that's what we're offering with MyJane. Women are natural caregivers and connectors. By decoding cannabis education for women and offering them discreet access to vetted products, we're helping them take better care of themselves, their families and their communities."
