74: Marie Henein: Resilience and Self-Confidence
If you have followed any of her high-profile cases, you know a little bit about Marie Henein, the prominent criminal lawyer. But there’s probably a lot you don’t know. In this episode of Digging Deep, Marie shares her fascinating life story, including her experiences as an immigrant and her special relationship with her uncle. We talk about her mother's fierce belief that women's lives and opportunities should be no different from men's. We discuss the harsh reaction she often gets for defending people accused of sexual assault and other crimes, and Marie's strongly held and thought-provoking views about the justice system. And as Marie says, we are all more than one thing. Beneath a tough, resilient, self-confident exterior, Marie also has a silly side and loves not just her work, but clothing and Christmas cartoons.
