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.

303:// Naturally Occurring Foods That Act Like GLP-1: Can They Help Control Hunger? 25:18

4 дні тому25:18

25:18

GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) receptor agonists have been gaining attention for their role in weight loss and appetite control. Medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro work by mimicking the GLP-1 hormone, which regulates blood sugar, slows gastric emptying, and reduces appetite. But what if you could support your body’s natural GLP-1 production with food? Let’s explore naturally occurring foods that can enhance GLP-1 levels and whether they can help with food noise the way medications do.

301:// Insulin Resistance in Perimenopause and Menopause: What You Need to Know 36:29

18 днів тому36:29

36:29

As women transition through perimenopause and menopause, they often notice changes in their weight, energy levels, and overall health. One key factor that can contribute to these changes is insulin resistance—a condition where the body’s cells don’t respond efficiently to insulin, leading to blood sugar imbalances and increased fat storage. Understanding insulin resistance and how to manage it can be crucial for maintaining health and well-being during this stage of life.

Episode Description: Changing your health habits isn’t just about following a new meal plan or committing to a workout routine—it’s about breaking old patterns that have been ingrained for years. For women, especially those navigating midlife changes, the process can feel overwhelming, frustrating, and even discouraging at times. The truth is, transforming your health will feel hard before it gets easier. But that doesn’t mean it’s impossible. If you’ve ever started a new habit with excitement, only to feel stuck or unmotivated a few weeks later, you’re not alone. The key is understanding why this happens and knowing how to push through the discomfort so you can reach the other side—where real change happens.

Our emotions are powerful forces that influence nearly every aspect of our lives—including our weight.

As women, we’re often praised for our ability to juggle countless responsibilities—caring for our families, excelling in our careers, and supporting our communities.
