Meet Debbie Waddell
Certified: Cannabis Coach
Graduated: 2021
Location: The Villages, Florida
Background and Qualifications: I am a retired environmental Scientist and acupuncturist. Currently, I also hold a certificate in plant-based nutrition and now plant medicine!

Why are you a Cannabis Coach?
My why is that I’ve always been holistic, and just as plant-based foods heal people, so does plant-based medicine!
I’ve had personal experience with the healing cannabis can provide. I used to have leg surgery every 4-6 months for six years! I started Cannabis 4 years ago and haven’t had leg surgery since!
It’s my passion to help heal people without doing harm. It’s an oath I took when I graduated from Acupuncture school!
Why did you join the Cannabis Coaching Institute?
I flunked retirement! LOL! I missed helping people heal, and one could only do so much partying while being retired!
If you’re on the fence about joining, I can tell you I learned so much, and the support is amazing!

What sticks out to you as you look back on your training?
The most impactful part of my training was learning the science behind this amazing plant.
Now that you’re certified, what are you doing professionally?
I am currently a small equity owner of a CBD store called The Pharm Stand (stand against big pharma). I love teaching, so I run their education program, retail store, and compliance!
We do private consultations at The Pharm Stand as well as virtually. All consultations can be booked online at: ThePharmStandco.com.
