“It just takes some guts to stick your neck out there and say I’m gonna serve.” Barbara McQuade
Denise talks to lawyer and Detroiter Barbara McQuade, who is most proud of being appointed U.S. Attorney by President Barack Obama, the first woman to serve in her position. When faced with tough decisions in her career and in her life, Barbara believes in being honest and delivering the hard news herself, being careful to say things the way she herself would like to hear them.
Everyone has had to face adversity. Barbara draws from a deep well of past experiences to give her the confidence to face new challenges, knowing she’s been successful before. Detroit, a resilient city, resonates with her tenacity. Her advice? “Don’t eliminate yourself,” let someone else tell you no, but don’t take yourself out of the race.
Her resolution for the new year is to promote hope. Most recently she’s co-hosting a podcast, #SistersInLaw, with other legal analysts from MSNBC where she enjoys teaching listeners how the law works, fighting corruption and sharing her wisdom on the current events in politics, law, and culture.
