    What happens when your perfectly timed, booming consulting niche suddenly goes bust? Dr. Sherry Boodram and Dr. Lucas McCann, co-founders of the cannabis consulting firm CannDelta, join Michael to share their incredible journey of navigating a volatile industry. They launched their firm from a kitchen table during the "green rush" of Canadian cannabis legalization, quickly growing to a profitable, 20-person team with phones ringing off the hook.

Sherry and Lucas detail their strategic and risky pivot into the complex, state-by-state U.S. market.
