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.

Hit that subscribe button so you never miss a new episode! And remember to send us a DM on Instagram ( @taylorclyde & @elizabethpclyde ) with ideas for upcoming episodes. We're always eager to hear from you! COMMON MISPERCEPTIONS ABOUT THE ANOINTING You must pray fervently in order to receive the anointing. You must seek fresh anointing for each message or ministry demand. The anointing comes and goes. The anointing is dependent upon speaking in tongues. The anointing is for miracles and supernatural work only. The anointing is from heaven and returns to heaven when we die. The anointing dwells in my spirit. LESSONS FROM THESE PATTERNS The real purpose in your anointing becomes more visible as you age, Ac 2:17. The longer you live the stronger your anointing becomes. Dt 33:25 Your anointing grows to face greater, future challenges. Anointing requires emotional maturity. Anointing is irreplaceable. Anointing is at your disposal. You choose to operate in the anointing. Your anointing is bringing something into the world and keeping something out of the world.…
