This week Andrew talks with Marion Jones. In 2000, Marion became the first woman to win five track and field medals at a single Olympics — when she won 3 gold medals & 2 bronze medals at the summer games in Sydney, Australia. Then, in 2007 Marion’s world came crashing down. She confessed that she had lied to federal investigators when, a few years prior, she denied using Performance-Enhancing Drugs. Marion was sentenced to six months in prison and the International Olympic Committee vacated all of her Olympic medals & performances. In this conversation, Marion talks candidly about her life & career — and many of the difficult lessons she’s learned along the way. This episode is a powerful reminder about the ripple effects of decisions, the journey of redemption, & that we are all capable of overcoming our biggest mistakes.
