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.

How do you actually know when you've gone TOO FAR in your quest to get healthy? Is there really such a thing as being TOO healthy?

And this is actually not an easy question to answer, because one thing I had to deal with, and something I know a lot of my clients have had to deal with also, is the disapproval of other people when you actually starting seeing some success with your health and weight loss goals.

I had lots of people tell me, "you're too obsessive," "can't you take a break," "you've lost too much weight," "this can't be healthy" and so on and so on. And I know many women in my program have heard those same kind of remarks, when in fact they're finally just taking control of their life and their health in a really positive way.
So where is the line between a determined health journey and an unhealthy obsession?

That's exactly what we're going to talk about today.

The One Thing You Need To Do To Avoid Weight Loss Failure (And It's Probably Not What You Think!) 29:55

28 days ago29:55

29:55

I know I talk a lot about the science of weight loss on this podcast. A LOT. And the reason I do that is because honestly, I think it's the most important piece of the puzzle—understanding how your body works, and why you've struggled to lose weight in the past. But that doesn't mean that there's not a lot of other factors that can play into your ability to actually LOSE weight and keep it off. And today, I want to talk about one of those other factors—the one thing that I've seen time and time again that can be the difference between success and failure in your weight loss journey. Because the truth is that even when you know EXACTLY what you need to do to lose weight, it's not always as easy as just flipping a switch and making it happen. And if you've been struggling to lose weight, or if you've lost weight in the past only to gain it all back, then you probably already know exactly what I'm talking about. It's not a lack of knowledge that's holding you back. It's what's going on inside your head. It's your mindset. And that's what we're going to be diving into today. ---------- Want to learn more about how our program can help you lose weight and get healthy FOR LIFE without dieting or drugs, then I'd love to invite you to join me for my FREE training!

Why I'm Excited About the MAHA Movement (and You Should Be Too) 29:09

6 weeks ago29:09

29:09

It's Inauguration Day—the dawn of a new era in the United States. For better or for worse, the next four years in this country are going to look very different than the last four years. And while the goal of today's podcast isn't to get all political on you, I did want to spend a little time talking about one particular aspect of the incoming administration that I'm pretty excited to see in action—the MAHA movement, also known as the Make America Healthy Again movement. Because whether you love President Trump or can't stand the guy, if you're listening to this podcast I'm going to assume you care about health. And if you've listened to this podcast for any amount of time, you probably already know that I'm not a huge fan of Big Food or Big Pharma, and that I firmly believe that the unchecked power and greed of those two mega industries is the primary cause of the current health and obesity epidemic in this country. But MAHA is promising to change all that, and that gets me VERY fired up. So let's talk about it. And maybe by the end of this episode, you'll be fired up too. ---------- If you're feeling fired up and ready to make a real change in your own life, our TAS program is the perfect place to start.

Have you ever wished someone would just hand you a plan for whatever it is you want to accomplish so that you knew EXACTLY what steps to take? Whether it's building a house, or figuring out how to organize your life or starting a brand new business, there are a million different situations in life where sometimes the thought of getting started becomes SO overwhelming that you end up getting totally paralyzed by indecision.
