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.

The Just Cruzing Podcast: Week 7 Rams Review 11:22

il y a un an11:22

11:22

What a great week to come back to. This week and moving forward every game is a playoff game, if we want to make the playoffs which I think we totally can, the division is closer than people think and a loong season ahead. I love this roster we are young but we need to execute in the red area, if we convert we wouldn't be in this position. But we are in it, and I think this is a great matchup we have to be able to build some confidence for the younger guys. The Raiders offense isn't the scariest and is trying to find its way still. I love this matchup its a huge opportunity. Lets Rush the QB and get home!! Keys to the Game: Keep them in 2nd and 3rd and Long, TACKLE TACKLE TACKLE Run that ball... w/ Kyren and Blake Stay the course, Keep scratching and clawing till the end.…

The Just Cruzing Podcast #49 My Current State 22:32

il y a un an22:32

22:32

The big thing to understand is that you and I, are human at the end of the day. The emotions that we feel are because we are looking at them in a negative view instead of a positive and I am guilty of it as well. I've been a bit off lately and I have to see it as an opportunity of growth. As hard as it may seem seeing things through a positive lens will help you understand that's not to say that you won't feel the impacts of those outcomes, but remember its about the journey not the results... However, that is easier said than done at during some instances on our journeys. On this episode I go into my own state of mind, what I'm aware of in my own life and how I have fallen, yet using my tools that have helped me get this far is what I reflect on to encourage and motive me to press on! I hope you enjoy the podcast! Peace.…

My own perspective of Life that I learned from the Stoics, Rastafari, and Buddistist for myself to sustain my happiness and confidence in myself. Life contains fear, but fear only lives in our minds. A lot of things exist because of our minds. In reality, they don't even exist. Its like the big hairy 8 eyed 4 arms 5 leg monster than lives under our bed that was never their. I hope you enjoy this podcast and hopefully I'm able to talk you into exploring yourself more. Have a great day... Peace.…

The Just Cruzing Podcast #43 Rams 2024 Draft Convo 20:23

il y a un an20:23

20:23

THE DRAFT IS HERE! - I love the Organization not the players - I go into depth about the aggressive nature the Rams have paved ever since 2016. - Talk about needs to address in the draft.. not in any order! (1LB, 1RB, 1WR, 1QB, 2DE, 1DT, 2CB, 1MLB, & 1TE) My Predictions for the 1st round pick - Trade back (hopefully with Was or KC or NE) getting an early second, third possible F. 1st. We'd have two 2s two 3s in a draft that will be Offensive heavy leaving a lot of the better defensive players, gain more capital to fill out defense bc a lot of offensive will be drafted leaving a lot good/great Defensive players for us. _ Trade up to Draft Bo Nix**, Penix, Dallas Turner**, Rome Odunze**, Brian Thomas, Brock Bowers** we have enough capital to give away as well. - I will happy either way. I believe we will be involved in a trade either up or down, I'd be shocked if we just took the pick as is. Just an excited time to be a Rams Fan! Thanks for Listening! Go Rams!…
