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.

Tom Simek, a 72-year-old Navy Submarine veteran, homebuilder, husband, father of 3 and grandfather of 2 inspires with his journey of resilience and determination. Like many of us, he has had his ups and downs with nutrition and fitness, but Tom embraced fitness seriously at 59 and hasn’t looked back. From track and field events to competing on American Ninja Warrior as its oldest competitor on season 16, Tom's pursuits are fueled by his love of challenges. He was a 2024 Senior Planet Sponsored Athlete by AARP, and he excels in senior track and field in the 50m, 100m, 200m, and long jump, with national rankings in his age group.

Tom’s granddaughter, a track star herself, remains his greatest inspiration, motivating him to stay active and lead by example. He values consistency, clean eating, and daily training, combining bodyweight exercises, weightlifting, yoga, and sprints at high altitudes.
