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.

I'm stoked to be hanging out with one of my dearest friends Pastor Steve McCarty. And for this episode, we find ourselves chilling in Pastor Steve's truck—escaping a blazing 95-degree heat and the relentless leaf blower buzz we didn't expect near our initial meeting place. But that's what we're all about—improvising and going with the flow here on Off The Cuff! :)

Pastor Steve's story is one of the most engaging I've encountered to date. We chat about his time in Costa Rica—where he and his family began their journey as missionaries. We discuss language hurdles; cultural experiences; and some of the things that we Americans often take for granted. We also dive into the beginnings of Faith Community Fellowship, the church he founded back in 2006—which is still going strong today with a local and global impact!

As promised, here is the follow-up episode from Sonya's garden three months later! The In The Moment series allows us to stray from our traditional format to bring you an intimate conversation that captures the essence of spontaneity. Sometimes, the most incredible discussions occur in brief moments that don't quite fill the duration of a full episode. But why should that stop us from sharing these captivating moments? This is a collection of episodes where we embrace the beauty of unfiltered conversation. Much like our main show, the conversations in this series are completely off the cuff but offer a much more raw take on events happening almost in real-time.…

I'm joined by my new friend Sonya Blankenship—a true veteran in the world of home loans—which we talk a ton about. Though, what I found most interesting about one of my first conversations with her was her love of gardening, hunting, fishing, and anything outdoors! And appropriately enough—the great outdoors is where we are recording for this episode. We met at Sonya's lovely country home surrounded by greenery and a beautiful and oh-so-cozy back patio that made me feel right at home.
