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.

It has been a while that I moved from Berlin and it has even been a few years more that I started my journey to minimalism. There was a time when I could not let go of excess stuff. While my income was increasing I purchased new stuff every once in a while but I did not let go of the old. I used to have closets full of clothes, most of them I never wore. After I found out that less could actually mean more, I reduced and got rid of most things I didn‘t use. But still...when we started our 8 month journey with our old school camper-van Emma a lot of stuff didn‘t fit and stayed in Berlin. Some in friends basements, some stayed in the apartment with the friends who live there now. A lot of the stuff were books and it is a serious discussion, wheather it is really worth keeping books that you are not reading. After all, could you look up the information elsewhere once you need it. What has been a huge relief to me though was clearing out these friends place. Decluttering is not only important for physical stuff but also mentally. By getting these things done, I reduced mental clutter because I don’t need to worry about when and how we’ll take care of it. Freeing up your unconscious mind creates potential to deal with... e.g. creativity. What is it that you could reduce to free up your mind?

It's the end of the year, a time for personal episode again. 2023 hasn't been an easy journey for me, and I believe it's crucial to discuss struggles, fears, and losses. Life isn't defined by the absence of problems but by how we deal with them. Everything in life has a flip side of the coin. You can't choose 'no problems,' only the price you're willing to pay. By sharing that I also confront my demons, I hope to encourage you to do the same and strive for the life you love.

So often, people need to have a reason to take action. It can become difficult to chose between investment and return, especially when helping others? Does there really need to be a return or is it about how we feel ourself doing it in the first place? A while ago, I had the chance to help a friend who found himself in a difficult situation. All I did was asking others, including my newsletter subscribers to help me and him out. I was blown away by the help we received for my friend and it made me proud that I did it. Although… looking closely I did not do much. I just asked others for help, simply because I could. That kept me thinking. Aren‘t these always the most amazing things? Those we do, just because we can but don‘t have to? What is it that you do, just because you can? What is it that you would like to do just because you can? Maybe we should aim for that more often.

Introvert or Extrovert. Most of us heart these terms before, but who can recall any business training, strategy or job motivation that did not seem to be for the extroverts. I belief that this is more on the behavioral site than a real character trade and this behavior being caused by different intrinsic motivations. Nevertheless it occurs in each one of us. Jon Bakers, todays guest specializes in training and coaching for introverts and people leading introverts in their team. Being an introvert himself it is a wonderful insightful conversation with him. He gives a lot of tips about living and introvert life or dealing with one.

While working on this podcast episode, I stumbled upon this text: F–– You Money Back in the 1920s, the actor Humphrey Bogart used to keep a $100 bill in his nightstand at all times. That’s the equivalent of over $1,200 today. He referred to it as his ‘f–– you money’, because it meant he’d never be forced to take a part he didn’t want. He once said that the only good reason for making money was so you can tell anyone in the world to go to hell. What’s your number? How much money would you need to happily turn down opportunities that you don’t want? And what if you could turn them down before you hit that number…? Then it hit me, because what Chris Mamula, todays guest did was not to retire, he just saved enough f—- you money, to become free enough to only choose what he is doing. If you want to know what that means to him and how he actually managed to have that amount of money by 41 listen to the episode or find out more about him directly at: https://twitter.com/caniretire_yet or https://www.caniretireyet.com/ Until then, take care my friend.

I met Carlos and Susanne when they interviewed me for their podcast life design and there I had the feeling there is more to discuss in further details.

But, there is more to it and it did not go as expected and they had to take some unconventional turns. Let me not spoil it all but listen in and find out how they managed to fix their realtionship and become a truly remarkable couple and what they have to share with all the other couples of this world.

Is a minimalist life possession free? No, it is well curated! Things that minimalists own, fulfill a purpose and often you will find a lot of high quality items in their daily life. That is because they don‘t like trash in their life and things that are used regularly are therefor higher quality. You see, being a minimalist is not about saying no. It is about saying yes to the right things. Owning is fine, as long as you use it or is at least bringing value to your life. Less distraction, more focus! Less clutter, you don‘t need in the first place. Maybe that could be a reason why minimalists make up such good coaches. Because they got rid of the clutter in their mind as well. I had the honor to have a conversation with an amazing woman with a minimalist approach. Yana Stockman who originally comes from Ukraine, started travelling the world and realized the more things you leave behind that you don‘t need in the first place, the more liberated you are to go and to do what you really love. By now she is settled in the US and helps her client in their „Life Transitions“ You can find out more about Yana at: https://www.yanastockman.com Until then, take care my friend.

I am a great fan of Mike Mandel and the work he does. Together with his co-host and business partner Chris Thompson he runs a wildly crazy podcast called Brain Software where they offer tons of value and deep insides into coaching and NLP. In his podcast Mike often gives people numbers and refers to the Enneagram. Since I enjoy talking to Mike so much I saw this as a good opportunity to have Mike back on the show and share his view on the Enneagram with you. We will go into the history of the Enneagram, take about archetypes and get a description of all the 9 different Enneagram types. As well as some inside on the Enneagram type 8 of Mike and wether I fit in there or not… If you want to take a glimpse of the Enneagram yourself you might want to have a look at one of the following free tests: https://lonerwolf.com/enneagram-test/ https://www.eclecticenergies.com/enneagram/test https://www.truity.com/test/enneagram-personality-test Until then, take care my friend.

Often I am addressing those of you, to whom happiness is a choice. I include myself into this category. No matter how much we think that life is fooling us, it is on us to choose what we make of it. Basically we close to unlimited options and often that is a reason for our misery. As soon as we take a decision for something, we have to say no to everything else that we could possibly do. Because… there is only room to do one thing at once. But there are people within our society that face constant discrimination and is on us to do something against it. Today I talk to Anna Michaela Cox, who is fighting for rights of so called „disabled children“ in the US. Being blind herself, she suffered from a discriminating school system herself and I ask her, what everyone of us can do to make this a better world and include everybody, no matter what the circumstances are.

I am finally sharing an episode with you that I recorded a while ago. As you may now, am I a a fan of John Lee Dumas of Entrepreneurs on Fire (https://www.eofire.com ) and admire him for what he did with his podcast and most of all for the Podcast community all together (https://podcastersparadise.com). Some of my best inspirations came from him and I enjoyed my conversations with him as he is, always of service. One reason for his success might be exactly that, not only grow the own business but also being of help to others. Even a person like John who seems to be a high achiever stills sometimes struggles and/or doesn’t reach his own goals. Therefor we set up this call and you can hear, that in oder to change, you first needs to be vulnerable at some point, to accept a change that you can then implement in everything you do. If there is something to learn from this episode, then, no matter how successful (or unsuccessful) you are in something that you do. Put all your achievements aside, be vulnerable and ask yourself what you could do different. What brought you here, won’t get you there! Let go and add something new to the mix ;-) You’ll be surprised where you might end up! Until then, take care my friend.
