JUSTICE KETANJI BROWN JACKSON Opens Up About Her Journey to the Supreme Court | IMO

Описание: This week on IMO, Michelle Obama and Craig Robinson welcome Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson for a thoughtful and inspiring conversation about the experiences that shaped her journey to becoming the first Black woman to serve on the United States Supreme Court. Justice Jackson reflects on growing up in a family of public servants, finding confidence as a young student, and the mentors who encouraged her to dream big. She shares the story behind her decades-long love story with her husband, the challenges of balancing two demanding careers while raising a family, and the lessons she hopes young people take from her memoir. Michelle and Craig also ask Justice Jackson to break down how our judicial system works, why an independent judiciary matters in a free society, and why understanding the role of judges is so important. Plus, the three offer advice to a listener navigating a difficult relationship with a new boss and discuss how to find mentors who will help you grow. Whether you're interested in public service, leadership, career advice, or simply hearing the personal story behind one of the nation's most influential voices, this is a conversation you won't want to miss.
