Our friends at Weed Reader published yesterday The 10 Most Interesting Females in Cannabis, a list which takes a deeper dive into the diversity and quality of some of the most inspiring leaders in the cannabis industry.

What makes these females* stand out is their passionate commitment to cannabis at a time when, as their exceptional credentials and backgrounds indicate, they could be involved in any number of industries without cannabis' hassle and risk.
