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.

11 | When Paradise Isn't | A Story of Surviving the Camp Fire 1:30:36

1:30:36

A woman and her family rise above the ashes after watching everything they knew growing up go up in flames. --- In 2018, the world watched as Paradise, California, and its surrounding towns in Butte County, lit up in flames, taking the lives of 85 people and displacing 50,000 more. Cell phone videos of the fear and devastation appeared all over the internet, giving the rest of us only a terrifying glimpse of what it must have been like to flee a burning city. And among those videos was one that stood out to many -- a woman, surrounded by flames beating down on her moving car -- calming praying for safety. In this episode, we interview Brynn Chatfield, the woman behind that very personal-turned-public prayer, and hear how that day unfolded -- from the casual early morning to hours later when she thought this was her last moment on earth. Brynn shares not only the details of how her day unfolded, but how she managed to pick herself up after losing everything, with others helping her along the way. We also talk to Sgt. Daron Wilson, Chief Information Officer at the Camp Fire, about the many ways he saw everyday people step up to the plate to help others in crisis, and what both of them feel that means for humanity.
