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.

Seeing the Positive in the Negative 7:08

This is one of those "I don't know who needs to here this, but..." type of episodes, so if you need some encouragement in your life, you're going to want to listen in. When things are tough, or you're in a fund where you seem like nothing is going right, it's hard to see the positive in it all. That's exactly where I was this week, and on today's quick pep talk I share a little bit of what's going on in my life, and how I'm trying (really hard!) to build a positive mindset through it all. I share some easy questions you can ask yourself to see the opportunity no matter what you're going through, and stop fixating on what's not going right in your life. Know someone struggling? Send them this episode and let them know you're rooting for them, too.

I also dive into why the words you use to describe your brand are so important and how it can hurt or help your customer experience, and a super easy exercise you can do TODAY to see if the way you're positioning your brand aligns with your vision for your business, and how to tap into your clients or community to see if they feel similarly. +++ If you love this episode, but need some help with your branding and marketing strategy, then my Brand Clarity Coaching program is the perfect solution.
