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.

Episode 15 - In this episode, we explore The Success Trap —the feeling of emptiness that lingers even after checking all the traditional boxes of success. We’ve been conditioned to believe that achievements, money, and status equal happiness, yet many high achievers find themselves disconnected, restless, and unfulfilled.

More importantly, we explore how to break free from this cycle, shifting from achievement to alignment . True success isn’t about doing more—it’s about feeling more. By redefining success in a way that resonates with your soul, celebrating the present moment, and focusing on impact over accolades, you can move from striving to thriving.

Sages are revered as enlightened beings who have accumulated profound knowledge through years of contemplation and experience; being in their presents opens the door to their wealth of wisdom, impacting one's spiritual journey and personal growth. However, the fascination lies in the idea of saging, which extends beyond perceiving someone as an all-wise figure. It involves immersing oneself in life's mysteries and experiencing wisdom firsthand, prompting a reflection on what one truly pays attention to in life and how.

Each chapter of our story in this grand adventure becomes a testament to the resilience and wisdom gained.
