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.

#14 - OMG Olympia's Mega Guide on What to Buy | Ailana Beauty 2:21

for 23 weeks siden2:21

I LOVE a beauty hack - and when it comes to Brow products - Ailana has got you sorted! Ailana Beauty is a premium beauty and cosmetic brand, proudly based in Queensland. After years of searching for the perfect Brow Gel—one that doesn’t leave a white cast, isn’t crunchy, and actually holds your brows in place—they decided to create their own. That’s how their amazing Brow Styling Balm was born! It keeps your brows in place all day long, without any nasties or whitecast, using only premium ingredients. What makes it even better? The balm includes ingredients like Jojoba Oil and Vitamin E, which nourish and support brow hair growth while you style. It even comes with a spoolie and their Brow Lamination Brush, and with daily use, the balm lasts between three to six months. So many customers and professional makeup artists have switched from big-name brands to Ailana’s Brow Styling Balm and haven’t looked back. It’s the perfect, affordable alternative to costly brow lamination services, especially for anyone with sensitive skin who might react to the harsh chemicals used in traditional lamination treatments. All of Ailana Beauty’s products are 100% natural, vegan, and cruelty-free, and they’re made for all skin types. Their best-selling Brow Styling Balm is stocked in over 50 beauty salons across Australia, New Zealand, and even the U.S.!…

The most beautiful sourdough crackers you will ever SEE and EAT!!! I love reviewing FOOD because I get to pig out in the name of research. I also love a brand with a great back story. After being made redundant from her role in the building industry at the commencement of lock down, Kristina decided to fire up the family sourdough starter that sat in her fridge, laying dormant just waiting to come back to life.... Kristina started baking old family sourdough recipes originating from her Croatian heritage. Obsessed with perfecting these baking techniques taught to her by master bakers within the family, she adapted them to showcase her own take on flavours and style. Within weeks, Kristina’s partner Andy was sharing the many sourdough delicacies such as breads, croissants, and her now famous organic sourdough crackers, with his work colleagues just so there was no food wasted. This continued until Andy was confronted by his team mates stating they were not going to take any more food unless Kristina would accept payment and could they please have a menu to choose from! And from that my friends Silver Tongue Foods was created! Get some for yourself HERE…
