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.

Fear, worry, and anxiousness will come against us, but that is not the sin. What do we do when those feelings and emotions come upon us? 2 Chronicles 20 gives us an example on what we should do when we become fearful or worried about a situation. God is with us just like He was with King Jehoshaphat. Philippians 4, Matthew 28:16-20…
God calls His children to things that may seem impossible for us, but He wants us to know that He is with us. It is not about us and what we cannot do, but it is about what God can do through us.
Ephesians 4 tells us that the Lord has given gifts unto men and they are gifts that are appointed and ordained by the Lord. There is a purpose for these gifts and that purpose is described by the Apostle Paul. Oftentimes Christians believe the purpose of the church is evangelism, but let's see what the Bible says. Evangelism is not the purpose of the church by is a by product of a healthy church.…
Being merciful is not optional for the Christian and is a test for true Christianity. Matthew 5:7 "Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy." Matthew 23;23, James 2:13, Luke:27-36, Matthew 18:21-35
Matthew 5:4 "Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted" Isaiah 61:1-3, James 4:17-21, Ezra 9:1-6, Ezra 10:1-61 Corinthians 6:9-12, Revelation 21:1-4
The Bible shows that we are going to be imitators. When we hear the word imitator as a Christian we automatically think about being imitators of Christ which the Bible clearly shows that is Who we are to imitate. The Bible also lets us know that we will be imitators of those who have gone before us. We as Believers in Christ should be imitators of Christians who are spiritual and mature and not those who are carnal and immature. Philippians 3:12-21…
