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.

I love magic and yet when it comes down to it, magic is an illusion. However, success in our own life can be achieved like a magician. I talk about how to use your own "magic" to create success. Magic is just a set of precise steps that lead to an end goal.

Do you ever find yourself stuck in a rut and have trouble getting in the zone? When this happens, do you seize new experiences or do you push them away in the hopes of getting more work done?

Those of us who are driven and passionate move fast, and we always have our eye on the prize, but that can actually be a hindrance. If we don’t stop to ‘smell the roses,’ so to speak, what will stand out to us at the end of our career is not our accomplishments, but our setbacks.…
