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.

Pageantry & Politics.. Let's Talk 35:51

πριν 5 weeks35:51

35:51

It's time we have a real and true discussion about the role politics plays when it comes to pageantry. In some aspects, leaning on our local politicians can be good to help advance our advocacy work while being a titleholder. However, in other ways aligning yourself with a candidate can look terrible for optics. So where is the line? and how do we move forward in such an uncontrollable political climate where bias can be formed just for posing in a picture with certain politicians?

Miss USA Top 20 Pre-Arrival Picks 1:11:38

Who do you have winning Miss USA this year? I can tell you my picks, first we have .... NOPE. You have to tune and and find out. It's really a toss up between four major states for me but I think we may make history with this year's winner. She will either make history as being the second person from her state to win. Or she will make history as the FIRST person from her state to win. Or she will make history as another person from THIS state to continually place as a semi-finalist. But either way, she will be fabulous. If you are a loyal listener than you know one thing about me... I DON'T MISS. I can spot out a winner from a mile away. Believe me when I say MY top 4 picks are it for sure. There's two states in particular who I can't split the crown over. I would be happy with either. This definitely got me excited!! I will keep you all updated with continuing coverage for the next two weeks of all things Miss USA. I think this is going to be a transformational year.

FROM THE VAULT - Hey Pageant Posse! As I was looking through my drafts and cleaning them up, I came across this beautiful episode featuring Larissa Maner, the Owner of Shimmer Boutique in Lewisville, Texas. I had the opportunity to work in her shop and learned so much when it came to not just running a store, but merchandising and gown fitting. SO MANY pageant girlies from the South flocked to her store and drove hours just to hear her vision and ideas for the national gowns. She truly knows what she is talking about when it comes to finding the perfect national gown. She's worked with thousand of girls and majority of them won either their respective titles or walked away with the evening gown award which in itself is a huge feat. Trust me when I say even though this episode is from 2021, there is SO MUCH GEMS she drops that are so relevant to today. So definitely grab your glasses and sit back to enjoy this episode featuring the Fairy God Mother of Pageant Gowns, Larissa Maner.

Two directors OUT at MUO/New Miss USA Prez ANNOUNCED! 31:35

As we now know two national directors have been removed from the Miss Universe Organization, Crystle Stewart from USA & Poppy from Miss Indonesia & Miss Malaysia. Both directors were facing sexual harassment allegations with Stewart, specifically also facing allegations of rigging the Miss USA pageant in favor of R'Bonney Gabriel to win. Miss Universe Indonesia just concluded its pageant and a handful of woman came forward and said they were sexually harassed and were forced to do "body checks" as the leaders were looking for "scars, cellulite and tattoos." MUO immediately cancelled it's contract with the President and also canceled the Miss Universe Malaysia pageant competition. Let's go ahead and have this candid discussion. What do you think about these incidents? Mind you, MUO only said Stewart's removal from the org was solely based on the rigging allegations yet they found no proof of such rigging. There was no mention of the harassment claims from the Class of 2021 by the former Miss USA VP. Find us on Youtube and drop your opinion in the comment section.
