"people":[
"name":"John Smith",

data=json.loads(people_string)
print(data)

Answer 1

There is a missing opening { in the first element of people.

{ 
   "people":[
      {
          "name":"John Smith",
          "phone":"615-555-7164",
          "emails": [
              "johnsmith@boguseemail.com",
              "john.smith@work-place.com"
          ], 
          "has_license":false },
      { 
          "name":"Jane Doe",
          "phone":"560-555-5153", 
          "emails":null,
          "has_license":true
       }
   ]  
}

Answer 2

There are syntax errors in your Json, here is the version correctly formatted:

import json

people_string = '''
{
    "people": [
        {
            "name": "John Smith",
            "phone": "615-555-7164",
            "emails": [
                "johnsmith@boguseemail.com",
                "john.smith@work-place.com"
            ],
            "has_license": false
        },
        {
            "name": "Jane Doe",
            "phone": "560-555-5153",
            "emails": null,
            "has_license": true
        }
    ]
}
'''

data = json.loads(people_string)
print(data)

Answer 3

For debugging purposes, you can use a JSON viewer such as this one to validate your JSON and also to visualize it a little better.

Pasting the JSON above I run into the following issue which gets highlighted:

Parse error on line 3:
{"people":["name":"John Smith""phone
-----------------^
Expecting 'EOF', '}', ',', ']', got ':'

The fix seems straightforward enough: you can add a { - open brace to signal the start of a map object - after the initial start of the list at [ . Once I did this, the JSON seems to be valid and am able to load and visualize the data as expected.
