CANNABIS PIONEER SAVING LIVES WITH CBD: EPISODE #07 w/Anthony Mijares

Episode 07: Anthony MijaresIt might sound obvious, but setting up a rewarding business in a (predominantly) infamous industry is no small feat. But whoever said it said it right that when your purpose serves the community, the results just come by. Anthony Mijares had a strong vision in mind when he founded Old Manchester Hemp Co, his established hemp business – to help people hop the negatives of cannabis (and related drugs) and see how those are an effective treatment for people battling PTSD. His vision was an outcome of his personal experience with the disorder as an army veteran, which when clubbed with his undying entrepreneurial spirit, led to his revolutionary business. In this episode of Success Leaves Clues, he joins me to talk about his life’s journey, exploring new ventures, discovering the dosage, benefits, and regulations around ethical usage of CBD, his entrepreneurial spirit, and how to break the unnecessary stigma around essential drugs.Tune in to the episode to learn how to face challenges, break out of the ordinary, fight failures, and unapologetically chase your purpose!Shoutout to our Sponsor, Morgan and Co.: https://www.morganandcorealty.comAbout Anthony!Anthony Mijares is a US Army Veteran and the Founder of Old Manchester Hemp Co.
