Shanna Perry is the owner of Shannabis, a media and news company within the cannabis industry in Las Vegas, Nevada. She feels that power plays are worse than sexism in the space, stating, “Power harassment is the mental and career confinement of women in business.”
Perry feels she was personally held back and demeaned like a child by men in the industry, for speaking her mind. There’s an old adage when men speak out they are assertive; when a woman speaks out, she’s being bossy.
