Blunt Brunch was founded to create empowering spaces for women in cannabis and champions entrepreneurs, executives, and advocates, helping them connect, grow, and thrive. From intimate networking events to impactful community initiatives, Blunt Brunch 2024 is excited to announce a game-changing collaboration with MJBizCon. Together, they’re bringing a unique energy to the Women’s Leadership Forum luncheon, delivering a bold and inspiring experience about resilience, connection, and redefining success.
Join the Women’s Leadership Forum luncheon on December 3 at MJBizCon and be part of the conversation redefining failure, resilience, and women’s leadership in cannabis.
Blunt Brunch 2024 Spotlight: Redefining Failure
“Redefining Failure: Turning Setbacks into Stepping Stones for Success” This candid conversation brings together powerhouse voices in cannabis:
- Kaila Strong, Regional Director of Marketing, Curaleaf West
- Kim McNab, Senior Director of Wholesale Marketing, Curaleaf
- Dawne Morris, CEO/Co-Founder, Proteus420
These industry leaders will share personal stories about turning career challenges into powerful lessons, shifting the narrative around failure, and leveraging resilience as a cornerstone of success.
“This conversation is about embracing vulnerability and celebrating the tough moments that shape our journeys,” says Blunt Brunch Co-Founder Parisa Mansouri-Rad. “When women hear that even the people they admire have faced—and overcome—setbacks, it creates a profound sense of connection and possibility.”
But this isn’t just a sit-back-and-listen kind of experience. After the panel, attendees will dive into “Action in Asking,” an interactive activity designed to create immediate value. Here’s how it works:
Each attendee will share an “ask” at their table—a challenge they’re facing or a resource they need. In response, the women at their table will brainstorm ideas, offer support, or share connections. This isn’t just networking; it’s about fostering collaboration and ensuring everyone walks away with something meaningful.
Why This Blunt Brunch 2024 Partnership Matters

“We couldn’t be prouder to partner with MJBizCon,” says Adelia Carrillo, Co-Founder of Blunt Brunch. “This opportunity allows us to extend our vision of inclusivity and empowerment to an even wider audience, creating a space where women can truly connect and grow together.”
