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.

We Should Talk About the Broken Rungs in Women's Career Ladders with Kweilin Ellingrud 48:07

for 2 dager siden48:07

48:07

Send me a Text Message about the show! The broken rung: a phenomenon even more pervasive than the glass ceiling in holding women back from career success. Women around the world do extremely well when it comes to their education. They graduate at higher rates than men do and have higher average GPAs. But then a strange thing happens: Upon entering the workforce, they immediately lose their advantage. When the first promotions come around, the slide continues—for every 100 men who are promoted to manager, only 81 women get promoted. Women risk falling behind far before they are even tapping the “glass ceiling”. So, what should we do about that? Especially in a climate where talking about diversity, equity, and inclusion has become the third rail of business development? McKinsey senior partners Kweilin Ellingrud, Lareina Yee, and María del Mar Martínez have written a new book, THE BROKEN RUNG: When the Career Ladder Breaks for Women--and How They Can Succeed in Spite of It. The book is based on over a decade of McKinsey research, conversations with more than 50 remarkable leaders, and their own experiences as senior partners working with companies and women leaders. Buy the book Kweilin Ellingrud is McKinsey's Chief Diversity Officer and a director of the McKinsey Global Institute, based in Minneapolis. As a senior partner at McKinsey, she has led research on the topics of gender equality, racial equity, generative AI, the future of work, and global competitiveness. She also serves clients in financial services across strategy and operational transformations.

We Should Talk About Death with Author and Undertaker Rupert Callender 1:10:35

Send me a Text Message about the show! I like talking about uncomfortable things. It's why I have this podcast-so that I have a space to be able to explore topics that might make some people feel uncomfortable, but are typically things we should be talking about more often. Today is no different. Today I want to talk about death. This isn't the first time I've covered this topic. In fact, WAY back in 2020-even before the world shut down in a pandemic-I talked about death with three other incredible women. Here is a link to that episode, it's great! 2020 Death Episode So it should come as no surprise that I jumped at the opportunity to interview my guest today. Rupert Callender has been a self taught, self proclaimed “radical” undertaker for the past 25 years, bringing unlikely influences such as acid house, crop circles and the counterculture on what remains an extremely patriarchal and increasingly corporate industry. His stripped back immersive approach has led to him being declared “the best undertaker of all time, by a country mile” by The Good Funeral Guide. His company, The Green Funeral company is in the UK and his memoir, “What Remains? Life death and the human art of undertaking” has been optioned by Working Title to turn into a TV drama. https://www.thegreenfuneralcompany.co.uk/ Support the show Keep up with all things WeSTAT on any (or ALL) of the social feeds: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/westatpod/ Threads: https://www.threads.net/@westatpod Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/westatpod/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/westatpod/ Twitter: https://x.com/WeSTATpod Have a topic or want to stay in touch via e-mail on all upcoming news? https://www.westatpod.com/ Help monetarily support the podcast by subscribing to the show!

What is Happening at the Department of Education? 22:24

Send me a Text Message about the show! Time to do an update on how things are going in the Department of Education now that we are 623 days into the Trump administration. Wait, no…..I’m being told it has actually been 27 days. I’m sorry. So when I last spoke about the Dept of Education, it was November 18th and I was reacting to the release of then President elect Trump’s 10 point education plan. I did an overview on the history of the Department of Education and an overview of the programs in which the Department oversees. I would encourage you, if you haven’t already, to listen to that episode first as I will be jumping into a lot more detail and specifics about the Department of Education in this episode. You can listen to that episode here And now we know what the reality is of this administration’s plan. As President Trump said in a press conference from the Oval office on February 13th, “I’d like to close the department of education immediately”. Although his nominee for Secretary of Education, Linda McMahon is still going through her confirmation hearing, she has echoed this goal, although perhaps on a slightly slower timeline than the President has said. Today I want to try my best to articulate what these proposed changes will mean in practice in as plain and clear language as I can.

WeSTAT AGAIN: Jamie Bruesehoff and Understanding Transgender Children 1:11:46

1:11:46

Send me a Text Message about the show! I am overwhelmed. There is so much information coming out each day that it becomes difficult to figure out what I should pay attention to -and I think that is the point. Flood the zone so no one thing can catch too much attention and so many many issues just flow right past us without notice. That's why I have been really trying to use discernment on the places I count on to get my information. And I want to be transparent with you so that you know the lens that I see things through. In today's episode, I share with you where I'm going to keep myself informed on the new administration and the changes that are being made. I'll link to the three places I specifically mentioned at the end of the show notes. Additionally, as I have been casting a net to try and figure out who I should be talking to and sharing with you, the WeSTAT community it occurred to me that I have already talked to so many knowledgeable and incredible people over the past five years of doing this podcast. But as with many things, as new information comes in, old information gets pushed farther back and out of the spotlight. So today, I want to pull something from the past and place it squarely back into the now. Jamie Bruesehoff is an award-winning advocate, sought-after speaker, and heartfelt writer. She is an openly queer woman married to a Lutheran pastor and mom to three spirited children, including an eighteen-year-old transgender daughter. She is passionate about sharing her family’s story, because she believes our stories are bridges to understanding, compassion, and celebration. My conversation with Jamie was so helpful to me to help me understand my own confusion about transgender people. And now, more than ever, I think a conversation with someone from that community is essential to de-stigmatizing this population. As Laverne Cox said BRILLIANTLY this week, "Trans people make up 1% of the population and we are not the reason your groceries are expensive, or your rent is too high. I think this country is focusing on the wrong 1%." Amen Laverne. https://www.jamiebruesehoff.com/ News Sources: Jessica Yellin and News Not Noise: https://newsnotnoise.com/ Axios: https://www.axios.com/ 19th News: https://19thnews.org/ Support the show Keep up with all things WeSTAT on any (or ALL) of the social feeds: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/westatpod/ Threads: https://www.threads.net/@westatpod Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/westatpod/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/westatpod/ Twitter: https://x.com/WeSTATpod Have a topic or want to stay in touch via e-mail on all upcoming news? https://www.westatpod.com/ Help monetarily support the podcast by subscribing to the show!

Giving Tuesday with Worldclass Clothing Founders, Sarah Beran and Brooks Bell 49:31

Send me a Text Message about the show! I said "wow" so much in this episode, and I even edited A LOT out. But talking with Sarah Beran and Brooks Bell about their separate journeys with colon cancer - both diagnosed when they were under 40(!) - left me almost speechless. Today, they’re survivors who have dedicated their lives to making sure others have access to early, life-saving colonoscopies. Brooks, a tech entrepreneur, and Sarah, a celebrity stylist, faced the terrifying reality that their cancers could have been prevented with earlier detection as regular screenings can detect precancerous polyps before they turn into cancer. Projected to become the leading cancer killer of adults under 50 by 2030, colon cancer is unique in that it is preventable! So Sarah and Brooks are launching Worldclass on Giving Tuesday, a non-profit apparel brand designed to raise awareness about colon cancer, where 100% of profits will go directly toward increasing access to colonoscopies for underserved communities. Join me this Giving Tuesday as we talk about our asses. Because a great ass is a terrible thing to waste. Check out the website: https://www.worldclassclothing.com/ Follow them on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/worldclass_clothing And in the introduction Jessica introduced you to another great non-profit to support this Giving Tuesday, Artspire VA Artspire VA is a non profit organization that strives to ensure "art is for everyone."

Something that needs to be actively worked on and done, rather than just accepting it as a thing that will always exist. Personally, I don't think the Department of Education should be shut down.

We Should Talk About How Food Supports Emotional Well-Being with Mary Beth Albright 52:58

Send me a Text Message about the show! The fall season is upon us, which seems to bring with it the onset of comfort food cravings. But what does comfort food mean to you? For Jessica, it's cheesy baked pasta dishes, but there's often guilt attached to these indulgences. Enter Mary Beth Albright, an award-winning journalist and author of "Eat and Flourish: How Food Supports Emotional Well-Being." Mary Beth challenges the guilt associated with comfort food and emphasizes the profound connection between what we eat and our emotional state. With a background in public health, government, and law, Mary Beth has spent decades researching the food-mood connection. In this enlightening conversation, she shares insights from her book, which combines serious, evidence-based information with an engaging narrative. Jessica and Mary Beth discuss the complexities of nutrition science, the impact of hustle culture on food choices, and the societal pressures of diet culture. They also touch on the controversial use of semaglutide and its surprising effects on emotional well-being, challenging the traditional narratives around diet and health. As they explore the feast paradox and the importance of communal dining, Mary Beth encourages listeners to embrace the joy of eating and to reconsider the moral judgments placed on food.
