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.

In this Episode I speak with Jon Katz. Jon started NYC Food Ways where he helps set up food rescue programs in New York City. Jon shares how he has used to work in the service industry and he realized that a third of our food is thrown away. He shares how he started taking food that would otherwise be wasted and give it to food insecure people.

This eventually resulted in Jon becoming a coach that helps people achieve many goals while starting first with changing their diet.

Ep. 123 - Yoga and Ayurveda (with Nadia Walji) 51:55

51:55

In this episode I speak with Nadia Walji. Nadia is a Certified Yoga Therapist. Nadia works with people one-on-one to pacify any symptoms or conditions that may be arising. Nadia tells us how the practice of Yoga can help people deal with stress, anxiety, sleep, and digestion. She shares her knowledge on some of the tools she uses, such as asana-s (postures) and prānāyāma (breath) practices. Nadia explains the 4 components of the breath and how we can play with those to cause a desired physical, physiological and psychological effect. Nadia also explains the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system. The sympathetic nervous system prepares the body for fight-or-flight response when a perceived stress is presented. This response inhibits other physiological functions such as digestion. She tells us how posture and breath practices allow us to activate the parasympathetic nervous system which allows for rest, recovery, digestion, and proper sleep. Nadia also has a foundational understanding of Āyurveda, the science of life, and gives insight into this beautiful, ancient Indian system of natural and holistic medicine. She shares how we humans are a microcosm of the macrocosm and are made up of the same elements of the planet – earth, water, fire, air, and ether (space). She explains how each of us has a different makeup of these elements – some people are made up of more of the heavier elements or conversely the lighter elements. By understanding our composition, the symptoms we are experiencing and the season we are in, we can pick foods, herbs and spices that are more appropriate for us.

Greg has developed his framework using neuroscience, mindfulness/somatic practices and energy work. Greg tells us how trauma stays in our body and how it can manifest itself anxiety, depression and chronic pain.

Greg tells us how our bodies have an innate wisdom that heals itself and his job is just creating a climate to allow that understanding to come back online. Greg tells us how when we have mental illness and pain for so long we end up identifying with our mental illness or pain and the strategies we use to escape those things. He shares how a mindfulness practice can really help us ease that identification. Greg also shares how now there’s tons of medical doctors dealing with patients more holistically because they realize the value in treating more than just the symptoms. https://www.prismamethod.com/ Use the code “NOOR” for 10% off Hosted on Acast.

Dylan shares his own journey and some painful moments in his life that lead to his own transformation.
