Founder and CEO of The Training Academy for Medical Cannabis. 

When medical cannabis and CBD started becoming more prevalent in the United States, she realized that there was a lack of education in the medical community.

Lisa has spent most of her 25 year nursing career as an educator. She has been recently awarded "Clinical Educator of the Year" at a global meeting in Las Vegas.  When Lisa identifies a need for education, she is not afraid to go after and find the best resources to ensure her audience gets the best training possible.

Lisa Hedin, RN is a cannabis nurse who trains nurses to become cannabis nurse consultants. She now tours the US helping other nurses to get in on the ground floor of this cannabis evolution.

Lisa started her career as a nurse and due to major losses of loved ones in her life from painful diseases,  she searched for ways to help others in pain.  In her search for alternatives to pain medications, Lisa discovered the beneficial properties of cannabis. 

As a cannabis nurse, Lisa leverages the expertise of her own practice and the network she has built to help new cannabis nurse consultants to bring in clients quickly.  She also trains cannabis nurse consultants on the best practices that is constantly evolving in cannabis education through live events.

​

She is constantly studying and starting the conversation about cannabis because she feels strong about the plant with all the medicinal benefits it can bring to the patient. Lisa recently became a member of the American Cannabis Nurses Association, the Medical Cannabis Institute and the Nurses Cannabis Network.  She is currently on the "Education and Research Committee" for the American Cannabis Nurses Association.  Lisa is a graduate of the Cansoom Medical Cannabis Consultant certificate program in Los Angeles, California. She is originally from Pittsburgh, PA, and now resides in Charlotte, NC with her teenage son.

WHY MEDICAL CANNABIS?

Since 1994, Lisa has been dedicated to nursing care in the field of nephrology. She has traveled all over the world learning and educating the kidney disease population.  For several years, she has been researching what cannabis can do for our bodies.  When she learned about the Endocannabinoid System in our bodies proven by science in 1992, it made complete sense to learn more.  Lisa is passionate in getting the proper education out there to medical professionals because she knows without a shadow of a doubt, many family members would still be alive if cannabis was available. THAT is her

Think Better. Feel Better. Live Better. ™

Being a caretaker of people (and the occasional earthworm) since she was a little girl, it is no wonder Heather became an EMT, a paramedic, and went on to become an ICU nurse. Although she truly wanted to be a veterinarian, severe allergies and asthma prevented her from fulfilling that dream. So, since allergies to people doesn’t really exist, she went on to become a highly regarded and respected Trauma/Neuro/Medical Critical Care Nurse.

Even though Heather loved being an ICU nurse, she felt a much stronger calling towards helping people heal at a deeper spiritual and emotional level. While helping families and patients in the ICU to cope and deal with heart-wrenching situations, coaching friends and family through difficult times, Heather found her true calling and passion in coaching. 

It would take some time for her to realize her dream as alcoholism almost robbed her of that. One night in December, she found herself sobbing on the bathroom floor, ready to commit suicide. She was hopeless, disgusted, lost, and shattered. 

That was the night she died. And that was the night she was reborn. She got sober a few months later and began to do the work. She cried, laughed, grieved, forgave, and learned how to unconditionally love herself. It was through her own healing journey, that she discovered her voice, her strength, her courage, and her true purpose. She realized her mess had now become her message and her purpose was to help others begin their own healing. Out of necessity during her sobriety and healing, she created The ROAR Method™ which she now uses to help others heal, discover the power of emotional mastery, and develop unshakeable confidence, so they too, can finally be free to Unleash Their ROAR™!

 Financial Health Expert

My name is Tiffoni and I am a middle school Science teacher (I like to live on the wild side). However, about 4 years ago I was introduced to trading currency in the foreign exchange market. It was like learning another language; paying attention in Economics 101 would have come in handy. But what started as hobby, quickly turned into a passion. A passion to educate others on how to tap into this trillion dollar industry.

 But adulting just doesn’t allow enough time in the day to spread the knowledge to everyone. So rather than teach others to trade, I began to introduce opportunities that would enable them to grow, save, and invest their money; putting their money to work for them. FINANCIAL HEALTH is very important - and It is equally rewarding to educate adults about creating generational wealth as it is to teach a middle schooler that Pluto is no longer a planet, no matter what their parents say. It’s the best of both worlds and I heart it! 

  Two-time Super Bowl champion and former placekicker for the Pittsburgh Steelers, Health Advocate. 

Jeff grew his roots and found his love for sports in Charlotte, North Carolina. By the age of five, he was already playing soccer, which became the center of his attention for the next 13 years. In his junior year of high school, while being the captain of the varsity soccer team, the head football coach at East Mecklenburg High School saw his football potential and gave him a brochure for a kicking camp. Since switching into football, he broke his high school’s record for longest field goal with a 54-yarder, later joining the University of North Carolina Tar Heels as a walk-on. Despite only getting playing time for his last two years of college, he was the Team Captain for the Tar Heels.

Reed first entered the National Football League in 2002 as a part of the New Orleans Saints. After 7 tryouts in 9 weeks in that same year, he was signed by the Pittsburgh Steelers, where he was active for the next nine years. In that time, he had a career field goal percentage of 82.2%, and he’s second in team history in points scored by a Steeler. He played in Super Bowl XL in Detroit and Super Bowl XLIII in Tampa, both of which the Steelers walked away from with a world championship ring. 

Since becoming a free agent in 2011 after Reed was released by the Seattle Seahawks, he has coached several successful kickers & punters, is an entrepreneur changing lives in the cannabis (hemp)/nutrition industries, is a motivational speaker, and appears on the radio and on television frequently. 

Reed has a passion for people, with a large focus on children, as he is a huge part of the culture and community locally and around the world. His parents, Morris and Pam, attended Wichita State University. Pam was a cheerleader, and Morris was a college basketball player. His sister, Kristen, attended the University of North Carolina at Charlotte where she played 4 years of soccer. She went on to play professionally.
