The Catch 22 of our Time.

In this episode, we delve into the concept of being "qualified" in the workplace, examining who gets labeled as such, who doesn't, and the underlying reasons. We explore "competency checking"—the practice of scrutinizing individuals' abilities—and how it disproportionately affects underrepresented groups, often going unnoticed or unchallenged. Our discussion aims to redefine qualifications in a fair, equitable, and actionable manner. Our guest, Shari Dunn , is an accomplished journalist, former attorney, news anchor, CEO, university professor, and sought-after speaker. She has been recognized as Executive of the Year and a Woman of Influence, with her work appearing in Fortune Magazine, The Wall Street Journal, Ad Age, and more. Her new book, Qualified: How Competency Checking and Race Collide at Work , unpacks what it truly means to be deserving and capable—and why systemic barriers, not personal deficits, are often the real problem. Her insights challenge the narratives that hold so many of us back and offer practical solutions for building a more equitable future. Together, we can build workplaces and communities that don’t just reflect the world we live in, but the one we want to create. A world where being qualified is about recognizing the talent and potential that’s been overlooked for far too long. It’s not just about getting a seat at the table—it’s about building an entirely new table, one designed with space for all of us.

If we stop printing money the economy collapses. If we continue social upheaval will surely follow.

This is the Catch 22 of our time.

Talking about my Last Article: https://theartoftomas.wordpress.com/2021/11/26/bitcoin-city-the-beginning-of-the-new-macro-political-landscape/ The new project by El Salvador to build "Bitcoin City", I believe this is the first step in a new landscape for countries. For the first time in human history they will have to compete to attract the best people. This puts the commonly known "developing" countries in an advantage over the "developed ones". Something to be aware of for our future, Hope this helps :)…

Talking about my last article: https://theartoftomas.wordpress.com/2021/11/19/the-making-sense-project/ I am adding a new section to my website called "Making Sense" where I'll add all the resources that are helping me understand our current environment. I think one of our greatest problem is that we don't understand what is happening in the world. There are too many distractions and misinformation. Without having a clear understanding of our situation it will be very difficult to make the right decisions. I'll upload this new section as regularly as I can :) I hope this is helpful to some of you. Have a great day!!!!…

Talking about my last article: https://theartoftomas.wordpress.com/2021/11/17/starve-the-beast-how-to-fight-back-against-the-dying-state/ All the problems we see today stem from one major factor, our structures are crumbling and we stand in a transition period. Bitcoin will defund the state, and with it political power will matter every day less. Those who see it coming will benefit massively, those who don't will, unfortunately, be left behind…

Talking about my last article: https://theartoftomas.wordpress.com/2021/11/12/starting-the-inflation-bitcoin-conversation-with-a-loved-one/ The best way I found to start this very complicated yet highly important conversation is with Lawrence Lepard on the "What Bitcoin Did" show with Peter McCormack. is very important to take it slow and answer all the questions that may arise during the show, I know is difficult. Yet we are getting to the stage where we can't afford to ignore what is going on. link to the Peter and Lawrence's show: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8QqreUTIZbM…
