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.

Meg Nelis has spent her life advocating for positive mental wellbeing amongst young people. She draws on the very best 'book' knowledge, with practical tips and weaves them together in her own journey of mental wellbeing. We do touch on our own experiences of mental wellbeing so this is a trigger warning for those who struggle with depression, anxiety, or eating disorders. We don't go into depth on these subjects, but it's worth noting.

I love Liam's approach to comms, marketing and life. He's walking that line of reach and relevance in a manner that taps into what is happening in our world. Sometimes that can be considered 'off-brand' in some marketers' minds, but it works for him and his brands. Hear him talk about how he engages, how he decides what's 'too far' and what he things the future of this industry needs to allow brands to be unapologetically authentic.…
