Meg Sanders is in her third year as CEO of Gaia Plant Based Medicine, a Colorado medical marijuana company with an indoor industrial grow and three dispensaries throughout Colorado. These days, she splits her time between managing the day to day operations of a thriving medical marijuana company and traveling the country fighting for medical marijuana law reform. She is helping hundreds of thousands of patients and building a strong, socially responsible and profitable company in the meantime. "I truly believe in the amazing powers of this plant. I've seen it with my own eyes," 47 year old Megan Sanders ("Call me 'Meg'!") of Boulder, Colorado passionately states. "Across the country people are really getting it. Most Americans, a huge majority know of marijuana 's preventative, palliative and curative powers already, but there are so many more reasons for providing safe access to reliable medicine for patients."
