Evelyn LaChapelle is full of feelings in this episode. A symbol of resilience, advocacy, and the entrepreneurial spirit Evelyn was incredibly powerful as she walks us through her journey and her work to destigmatize cannabis and both the seen and invisible punishments imposed on those incarcerated for it.
MEET EVELYN
Evelyn LaChapelle’s transformative journey began in 2013 when she faced adversity, leading to her conviction on three charges related to a minor role in a marijuana distribution operation. Despite enduring an 87-month prison sentence during this challenging period, Evelyn emerged stronger and more determined than ever to make a positive impact.
Today, she stands as a driving force in the legal cannabis industry, leveraging her professional position to advocate for restorative justice. As the proud owner and founder of The Weed Lady gift shop and lifestyle brand, Evelyn is on a mission to normalize cannabis consumption and create opportunities for the formerly incarcerated to find their path in this evolving industry.
Evelyn’s story is a powerful narrative of both defeat and victory. Committed to propelling her brand, The Weed Lady, forward, she focuses on luxury cannabis essentials, apparel, cannabis delivery, and soon-to-be-released cannabis beverages. In addition to her entrepreneurial ventures, Evelyn co-curates CannaKick-it, the Bay Area’s premier cannabis day party, and is a founding member of Ladies Loving and Living, a non-profit organization dedicated to serving women post-incarceration.
In 2023, Evelyn expanded her passion for empowering others by launching her own podcast, “Grind Time” This podcast provides a behind-the-scenes look at becoming an entrepreneur, offering valuable insights and practical advice.
Evelyn LaChapelle is not just a name; she is a symbol of resilience, advocacy, and entrepreneurial spirit.
