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.

This season we’re taking a little bit of a diasporic trip and no place is more important to the movement and colonial influence on Black foodways than the Caribbean. With a complicated economic, geopolitical, and cultural mix of factors, the over 40 countries and territories represent a critical battleground for the practical understanding of the evolution of Black creativity and by extension culinary innovation. In this episode, i got to chat with a Jamaican chef, educator, and social scientist Tiffany-Anne Parker ( @pi.naan.ee ) who uses pastry to curate the cultural culinary arts practice called Pienanny the interrogates issues of race gender, and culture through desserts.…

Diasporic Desserts 32:48

Sweets look different across the African diaspora, where baking is less about decadent desserts to end a meal and more about special occasions, a taste of other parts of the world, and the botanical bounty of indigenous fruits. I wanted to start this season with a grounding conversation at the West African center of the Black culinary diaspora. On this episode, I drafted my friend, the ever-brilliant Nigerian food explorer, culinary anthropologist, and food historian Ozoz Sokoh ( @kitchenbutterfly ) of Kitchen Butterfly and founder of Feast Afrique to help us reimagine Black desserts.…
