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.

572 - Interview with Katherine Stewart, author of "Money, Lies, and God" 1:02:33

Patreon supporters who give $5 a month will get an ad-free version of the show! Join our private Facebook group and Discord server ! Katherine Stewart has long been the canary in the coal mine when it comes to Christian Nationalism. In 2020, just before the presidential election, she published "The Power Worshippers," all about the threat of that movement. It even inspired the documentary "God & Country." Her new book is even scarier, in part because she is so good at knowing what's coming down the pipeline. It's called "Money, Lies, and God: Inside the Movement to Destroy American Democracy," and it reveals the connection between Christian Nationalism, wealth, and the death of American democracy.
