Marcia Clark, best known as the lead prosecutor in the O.J. Simpson trial, has become a trailblazer for women in law and beyond. Her journey from courtroom to bestselling author reflects her resilience and determination to redefine herself amidst intense public scrutiny. On this episode of Worth Knowing, Clark dives into her latest book, *Trial by Ambush*, which examines the 1953 Barbara Graham case—a story that highlights gender bias, media sensationalism, and the notion that all cases are subject to societal, cultural, and political winds. Clark shares how her experiences during the Simpson trial shaped her perspective on societal pressures and the role of women in high-stakes professions. Her reflections on how media, forensic science, and legal practices have evolved over decades offer valuable insights into the intersection of law and culture. This conversation is a compelling exploration of true crime, personal growth, and how Clark’s groundbreaking career continues to inspire a new generation of women to challenge norms and forge their own paths. Marcia Clark is a bestselling author and a criminal lawyer who began her career in law as a criminal defense attorney and went on to become a prosecutor in the L.A. District Attorney's Office in 1981. She spent ten years in the Special Trials Unit, where she handled a number of high-profile cases, including the prosecution of stalker/murderer Robert Bardo, whose conviction for the murder of actress Rebecca Schaeffer resulted in legislation that offered victims better protection from stalkers as well as increased punishment for the offenders. She was lead prosecutor for the O.J. Simpson murder trial. In May of 1997 her book on the Simpson case, "Without a Doubt," was published and reached #1 on the New York Times, Wall St. Journal, Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, and Publishers Weekly bestsellers lists. In February 2016, Clark re-released the book with a new foreword.

513. Expand, Don't Shrink: Living Bigger in the Second Half of Life with Kristin Andrus 54:06

54:06

Disclaimer: this episode touches on mental health, addiction, and suicide. What if the most meaningful chapter of your life hasn't even begun yet? Many women think their most important work is behind them once their children are grown. However, my guest this week believes this mindset is not only limiting but potentially harmful to our relationships, our families, and our communities. In this eye-opening conversation with inspiring philanthropist and mother of six Kristin Andrus, we explore why women should be expanding rather than contracting in the second half of life. As someone who has built a life around contribution rather than duty, Kristin offers refreshing insights on finding purpose beyond the traditional roles we've been assigned.

512. Clean Pain and Dirty Pain 34:37

Have you ever noticed how some emotional pain seems to help you grow, while other types just keep you stuck in a cycle of suffering? I've been fascinated by this distinction for years, and after mentioning it briefly at a recent speaking engagement, I realized I needed to dedicate an entire episode to exploring this powerful concept. Join me this week to learn how to recognize the difference between clean pain and dirty pain in your own life and why making this distinction matters so much. You’ll hear personal examples of both clean and dirty pain, why we often choose dirty pain to avoid the necessary clean pain, and practical guidance on how to process emotions in a way that leads to growth rather than stagnation.

Have you ever caught yourself thinking something negative and then immediately defending it with "but it's true"? Join me this week as I explore why "true" thoughts can still be optional, and how focusing on certain thoughts—even if they might be accurate—could be holding you back. I'll show you how our brains naturally seek evidence for what we already believe, and how this creates a self-fulfilling cycle that either empowers or limits us.
