When embarking on your ISO journey, a crucial first step is evaluating your current level of compliance and identifying what gaps need to be filled to gain certification or fully align with a Standard. This is typically done by conducting a Gap Analysis. This exercise sets the foundations for your ISO Implementation project, from setting key actions and objectives, to resourcing and establishing a project timeline.   In this episode, Ian Battersby dives into the purpose of a Gap Analysis, who should be involved in the exercise and what inputs and outputs you should expect to have from conducting a Gap Analysis.   You'll learn ·      What is a Gap Analysis?   ·      What is the aim of a Gap Analysis? ·      What is the process of conducting a Gap Analysis? ·      Who should be involved in a Gap Analysis? ·      What inputs should be included in a Gap Analysis? ·      What outputs can you expect from a Gap Analysis? Resources ·      Isologyhub   In this episode, we talk about: [02:05] Episode Summary – Ian Battersby dives into the first step on any ISO Implementation journey, breaking down what a Gap Analysis is, it's purpose and what you should expect to get out of conducting one. [02:50] What is a Gap Analysis?: Simply put, it's the start of the process. It's a key to understanding where an organisation is right now and establishing what it needs to do on its journey to ISO certification. But it's not just for certification, as certification isn't always what people are trying to achieve. Many businesses opt to align themselves to a standard to ensure they're doing the right thing, but may not go through with full certification. [04:05] Who is the aim of a Gap Analysis? The objective of a Gap Analysis is to carry out a review of your organisation against the requirements of the respective standard. This will help to establish the following: ·      Areas where you conform to the standard, where you may have established the required processes, procedures, roles, responsibilities, systems, methods, documents ·      Areas of nonconformity, where such things will need to be developed ·      You may partly conform, so it's important to understand that as well From that understanding, you can build key actions, timescales and responsibilities for implementing an ISO Standard. It's also very useful to leadership; to clarify what's needed, to look at priorities, to resource what's required and to establish a timeline to your end goal. [06:25] What is the process of conducting a Gap Analysis? It's important to do this in a very structured manner. It's also important to get access to existing documentation and personnel in key roles; they'll be helpful during the gap analysis in providing understanding. You'll need to evaluate your current level of compliance against the following clauses within your desired ISO Standard(s): 4 Context: Understanding the world in which you operate, the people and organisations which are important to you. This is where you will determine the scope of your system (what to include, what parts of the standard are relevant). 5 Leadership: Top management's commitment, how involved they are, their accountability and their commitment to resourcing, promoting, to giving people authority through clear roles and responsibilities. 6 Planning: This is about assessing risks and opportunities; understanding the uncertainty caused by your operating environment (context). It also involves setting objectives and then establishing meaningful plans to address the risks/opportunities and objectives; mitigations; establishing controls; operational processes. 7 Support: This is where you look at people, competence Infrastructure and environment (are your facilities/equipment appropriate to what you need to do). You will also need to identify what you need to monitor and measure to demonstrate the effectiveness of your ISO Management System. Next, you need to cover awareness and communication, i.e. how do you make people aware of your system, policy, processes; what do you tell other interested parties? Lastly, ensure you address how you control the documentation which supports your system. 8 Operation: This address the delivery of a product or service to the customer, including all the processes for doing so. For example, in ISO 9001 this clause defines what's required when designing, developing, controlling externally provided products/services and controlling anything which goes wrong. This is typically the clause that contains the largest difference between ISO Standard, with each one focusing requirements on it's topic focus. For example, ISO 14001 includes requirements for emergency preparedness and response in the event of an environmental incident. 9 Performance evaluation: This is where you review and report on the results of the monitoring and measurement that you've put in place. For those familiar with ISO, this is where the internal audit and management review requirements sit. 10 Improvement: This clause states requirements for addressing any non-conformities that pop-up during your Internal Audits. It also encourages you to address opportunities for improvement to help drive continual improvement and innovation. [13:50] Who should be involved in a Gap Analysis? One key myth that we'd like to clear up is that not everyone in the business needs to be involved in this process, however, we do recommend the following are included: The person responsible for the day-to-day running of the Management System. This may not be known at this early stage, which is fine as the purpose of the Gap Analysis is to identify gaps such as this. Leadership; someone in a senior role; responsible for resourcing the system, communicating its importance to the workforce; responsible for setting the strategic direction and objectives. People who understand the context of the organisation; understanding interested parties (stakeholders); needs of customers and others; the regulatory environment Those involved in risk management; operational, financial, commercial, regulatory, safety or environmental. Someone with knowledge of the legal requirements and how they're evaluated; relative to specific standard. Anyone setting objectives related to the specific standard. Those with knowledge of competence arrangements; not just those responsible for co-ordinating the Management System, but across the board, for delivering operational processes. Those responsible for facilities and equipment; maintenance, service, test, inspection, etc. People responsible for developing and delivering operational processes. People with knowledge of how things are monitored or measured; possibly operations people, data analysis or those who report performance to management. Those who control nonconformity and those who run improvement processes. It can be quite a range of people! However, in smaller organisations there may be quite a limited number who likely wear many hats. Again, that's not a problem, as the Gap Analysis exists to discover that. [21:55] What inputs should be included in a Gap Analysis? This can include a number of things, as not everything will necessarily be a document. Typically, we as consultants will look at: ·      Management System manual or System Scope ·      Organisational chart ·      Mission, vision, values and culture ·      SWOT/PESTLE and Interested Parties ·      Policy relevant to the standard ·      Job descriptions ·      Risk and opportunities analysis; methodology ·      Objectives ·      Legislation register and methods of evaluation ·      Competence arrangements, training records ·      Management System awareness, training completion ·      Details of version and document control in place ·      Monitoring and measuring plans (KPIs, SLAs, internal performance metrics) ·      Internal audit programme and audit reports ·      Management review records ·      Agendas for any regular management meetings ·      Nonconformities, incident report and corrective action records ·      Customer complaints/feedback ·      Emergency Plans ·      Process Documentation ·      Examples of process documentation: ·      Change control documentation ·      Sales, tendering, order processing ·      Procedures for the design and development of products and services ·      Design and development records stating inputs, verification and validation activities, outputs, and approval of changes ·      Procedures to approve products and services for release to customers including quality checks ·      Supplier / third party evaluation and onboarding documents ·      Non-conformity/complaint information ·      Traceability documentation [29:40] What is the output from a Gap Analysis? We look at all of this and compare it against the requirements of the Standard to see where you currently stand. In our case, we do this on a spreadsheet with a simple scoring system to give you an overview of what you already have in place and what needs to be addressed. In many cases, businesses already have a lot of the required documentation, but don't have it tied together in one cohesive system. So a large part of implementation is consolidating that existing documentation, process ect. Into an accessible and easily understood system. The key thing to remember is that this is not an audit. The evidence required does not have to be as detailed as an audit; some things can be taken on trust or face value. At this stage we aren't demonstrating anything to a certification body, and you are not being judged. We are simply looking at what needs to be done to achieve full Implementation or certification.

Sobriety gets you stable — emotional intelligence gets you unstoppable. If you've ever felt like you got sober… then life got louder, messier, and more emotionally demanding — this episode is your roadmap. I'm joined by my friend and emotional intelligence powerhouse, Noble Gibbens, to break down why EQ isn't a nice-to-have in recovery — it's the foundation of building a life you're actually proud to live. Noble's story is wild: military, high performer, “business cult,” decades of people-pleasing… and then a full-blown wake-up call that forced him to confront emotional immaturity head-on. What he learned rebuilt his marriage, rewired his relationships, reshaped his career, and transformed his entire identity. And listen — if you're sober, even for a day, you know exactly why this matters.Alcohol numbed everything. Sobriety brings all of it back.EQ is how you handle it. This episode is loaded with tools, book recommendations, emotional vocabulary tips, and straight-up truth bombs to help you grow stronger, calmer, and more resilient in your day-to-day life. Plus, I created a full companion guide for you — every resource mentioned in this episode is inside it. Here are 3 Key Takeaways From This Episode:  1️⃣ Emotional Intelligence Is a Skill — Not a Personality Trait You weren't born knowing how to navigate emotions. No one handed you a manual. EQ is learned, practiced, strengthened, and refined over time — and it becomes your competitive advantage in sobriety and in life. 2️⃣ Self-Awareness Is the First Step (and It's Usually the Hardest) Most people think they're self-aware… until they start naming their emotions, tracking their triggers, and seeing how much of their behavior is fueled by fear, people-pleasing, or old survival patterns. Awareness is the doorway to freedom. 3️⃣ Growth Requires Discomfort — But Discomfort Builds Power You can't emotionally mature without running straight into the stuff you've been avoiding for years. But the moment you start doing the work, everything shifts — your relationships, your confidence, your boundaries, your entire sense of self.

This week we sat down with Brittney Whorton. Brittney is a bright light in the world whose story should motivate everyone. She is a powerful, smart and funny woman who has met challenges head on and chosen to see the world in the most beautiful way. Brittney writes; "So when you see me push myself physically, know that I won the mental battle years ago, my body is just trying to catch up and soak in every single moment! Pushing myself to greater heights. Dumber things. BIGGER THINGS! Pushing myself to be something that defies every dang odd that was laid out for me by some pretty brilliant medical professionals. Because my amazing team of docs were always terrified of what riding a bike could do to me as my back and hip had been properly destroyed!!! But, I knew I didn't have a choice but to ride.Turns out, they saved my insides and were able to stop the growth of a pretty nasty chronic disease. But riding a bike saved my life!!! And I'm going to live every moment incredibly grateful for the achievements mom and I made with my health; but if you see fear, it is fear that I stop short of my goals and don't find my true physical limit. There is no mental limit, that battle was fought and won years ago. A physical limit looms out there, maybe, I don't really know, but I want to do everything I can to try and find where the physical wins over this mind. This podcast is powered by ZenCast.fm

"You are the one your ancestors have been praying would come, to shift things for future generations."  Have you ever wondered why certain patterns seem to repeat in your life, no matter how hard you try to change? Maybe you keep attracting the same relationships, struggling with the same fears, or feeling emotions that don't even seem like yours. In this episode of Soul Talk, I reveal the deeper truth about ancestral trauma, the invisible wounds passed down through generations, and how to finally free yourself from them. You'll learn how to recognize what you've inherited, release what no longer serves you, and create a new legacy of love and light for those who come after you. You'll discover how unprocessed emotions, beliefs, and pain can live in your DNA, shaping your patterns without your awareness. I'll guide you through powerful steps to acknowledge your lineage, honor your ancestors, and break the energetic "loyalty contracts" that have kept you small. We'll explore sacred wisdom from African, Japanese, and indigenous traditions that show us how to reconnect with our roots and invite the blessings of those who came before us. And you'll remember: you are not here to carry your ancestors' pain, you're here to transform it. Listen closely, and you'll awaken to this truth: you are the bridge between the past and the future. You are the one your ancestors prayed for. When you heal yourself, you heal generations before you, and those yet to come.

In life, those closest to you have the capacity to hurt you the most. Your family. Your partner. Your "best friend." But we don't all respond to hurt the same way. Some of us verbalize it and tell everyone who will listen how we've been wronged - how we've been hurt. Others of us, however, bury it deep inside and pretend to be "okay," dismissing how we were mistreated with excuses. Both get it wrong. You cannot excuse the inexcusable, and you cannot forgive what is unnamed. In this message, Max Vanderpool outlines the FIRST STEP any of us should take when we've been hurt or wronged in life. It may not be easy - but, in the long run, it's worth it - because it's a step that leads to freedom.

In this episode of The Crossman Conversation, Erica Karlinsky and Bob O'Brien talk about what it really means to take the first step toward therapy.

Welcome to the Via Stoica Podcast, the podcast on Stoicism.In this episode, we turn to Epictetus, Discourses, Book 2, Chapter 10, where he begins with a powerful invitation:“Examine who you are. For you are capable of understanding the divine governance of the universe and of reasoning on what follows from that.”Epictetus, Discourses, Book 2, Chapter 10At the heart of this quote lies the Stoic call to self-knowledge. Epictetus reminds us that our first duty is not to chase success, fame, or wealth, but to understand ourselves. Only when we know who we are can we know how to live. This isn't abstract philosophy; it's an invitation to observe, question, and align our actions with our nature. In modern terms, it's about becoming aware of our beliefs, values, and reactions, the foundations of a meaningful life.Epictetus follows the example of Socrates, who famously said that “the unexamined life is not worth living.” The Stoics carried this Socratic insight further: by knowing ourselves, we come to understand nature itself. As Marcus Aurelius often reminded himself, we are fragments of the same Logos that governs the universe.This idea connects deeply with the three Stoic disciplines:Desire – wanting only what aligns with nature.Assent – judging impressions clearly and rationally.Action – behaving in a way that reflects our true character.Through self-examination, we cultivate harmony between what we think, desire, and do.Pause before reacting. When something triggers you, ask: Why does this affect me so strongly? What belief lies beneath my reaction?Reflect daily. Journal about your choices and emotions. What patterns do you see? What virtues guide your actions?Detach from labels. You are not your job, income, or reputation. You are the sum of your moral choices — your character revealed through action.For more, check out this related article with quotes on self-knowledge: https://viastoica.com/how-to-know-yourself/And if you're looking for more Stoic sayings, visit viastoica.com, where you'll find hundreds of quotes with full references to the original texts:https://viastoica.com/stoic-quoteshttps://viastoica.com/marcus-aurelius-quoteshttps://viastoica.com/epictetus-quoteshttps://viastoica.com/seneca-quotesMake sure to subscribe for more Stoic Quotes episodes every Friday, as well as our Tuesday interviews and longer discussions.Support the showhttps://viastoica.comhttps://viastoica.com/stoic-life-coachinghttps://viastoica.com/benny-vonckenhttps://x.com/ViaStoicainfo@viastoica.comProduced by: badmic.com

The post First Step Back: Inquire Of The Lord – 1 Samuel 30:7-8 – November 5, 2025 first appeared on Enduring Word.

We tell students to “pick a path” — but what if they've never seen what's possible?In this kickoff episode of the Disrupt Education x YouScience series, Peter Hostrawser and Alli Dahl dive into the exposure gap — the growing disconnect between student potential and the opportunities they even know exist. Joined by Talent Pipeline Specialist Jason Van Nus, they unpack why awareness, not test scores, is the first step toward true readiness.What's Inside:- Why career readiness starts with exposure — you can't choose what you've never seen- The critical difference between aptitudes and interests (and why schools often get it wrong)- Eye-opening data showing how much student talent goes unseen: 36% have health science aptitude, but only 8% express interest- How simple awareness can transform engagement, confidence, and direction- Real stories of students who discovered new paths once they understood what they were naturally wired to doThis episode sets the tone for the entire series: readiness doesn't live on a transcript. It begins with understanding who students are and helping them connect that to meaningful opportunities.Listen now to learn how YouScience is helping schools close the exposure gap and empower students to see—and seize—their full potential.Learn more about YouScience and how they're helping every student become connected and ready:www.youscience.com/disrupteducation-podcast

October is National Domestic Violence Awareness Month. Statistics indicate that approximately 1 in 3 women and 1 in 4 men will experience domestic violence in their lifetime. Every minute in the U.S., about 20 to 24 people are physically abused by an intimate partner, amounting to more than 12 million individuals each year. Domestic violence also impacts millions of children, and the economic toll is substantial, resulting in nearly 8 million lost workdays annually in the U.S.  Our guest today, June Sheehan Berlinger, RN, has authored a powerful account of her personal experience with domestic violence in her book, "Rising Above the Trauma of Abuse." June is a nationally recognized expert on this issue, and her dual perspective makes her book both deeply personal and practical. Given the prevalence of this social issue, along with the secrecy and stigma that often surround those affected, many victims suffer in silence. June urges us to speak out and take a stand against all forms of domestic violence. By doing so, you could help save a life.Special Guest: June Berlinger, Author and Domestic Abuse Advocate June Sheehan Berlinger, BSN, is a survivor, mother, nurse, writer, and public speaker. She dedicated her career to helping women. June served on Florida's Governor's Domestic and Sexual Violence Task Force from 1994–1997 and directed The Women's Center at Tallahassee Memorial HealthCare for 14 years. Her pioneering work includes developing Florida's first hospital protocol for domestic violence and FIRST STEP, a victim handbook that was distributed statewide. A four-time published author, June has trained health and mental healthcare professionals, law enforcement, and legal teams across the U.S. She lives with her husband, Tom in Denver, CO.

When the mission feels massive, how do you take the first step? We all feel the pressure. With souls on the line, it feels like we need big plans, big programs, big results. But what if the most fruitful thing you could do today was simply to take one small step? In this episode, I share four strategies that have helped me and others start small, build momentum, and trust that God will grow what we begin. Whether you're leading a parish, a ministry, or just trying to follow Jesus more closely, I want to encourage you: don't wait for perfect. Start small. God delights in small beginnings, and He'll grow them into something beautiful. [01:42] Strategy 1: Shrink the First Step [02:46] Strategy 2: Do the Next Right Thing [04:42] Strategy 3: Settle for Incomplete and Imperfect [08:43] Strategy 4: Biblical Encouragement to Start Small [10:11] Closing Thoughts and Prayer For more practical advice and experiences from real people sharing their mission with the world, go to https://equip.archomaha.org/podcast/.

Honestly, at this point, she's basically my co-host—and every time she joins me, the conversation is fire.   Lisa just released her new Bible study, Body and Soul, and we're diving into what she calls “whole body theology.” It's powerful, it's eye-opening, and it'll make you rethink everything you thought you knew about faith, health, and how God designed your body.   We're talking about how the enemy twists body image into a weapon, how to break free from those lies, and what Scripture really says about honoring your body—not out of vanity, but out of reverence.   If you've ever struggled with how you see yourself, this episode is for you.

Health care data strategist Lee Ann McWhorter discusses her article "Why health care reform must start with ending monopolies." Lee Ann explains how monopolistic control by entities like GPOs, PBMs, EHR vendors, and MMIS platforms drives up costs, suppresses innovation, and undermines patient safety. She highlights how opaque contracts and data silos leave hospitals flying blind, why favoritism often trumps performance, and how COVID-19 revealed the dangers of centralized sourcing models. Lee Ann emphasizes that hospitals have the power to break this cycle by rejecting monopolistic contracts and investing in transparent, independent, and sustainable solutions. Listeners will learn why cost is not the true crisis—control is—and how restoring competition can protect patients and rebuild trust in the system. Our presenting sponsor is Microsoft Dragon Copilot.

A.M. Edition for Oct. 9. Israel and Hamas agree to the first phase of President Trump's peace plan, with all hostages set to be released and Israeli troops to withdraw to an agreed-upon area. The WSJ's Michael Amon explains what happens next. Plus, senior Republicans quietly advise the White House against mass layoffs and cuts during the shutdown. And France's Macron says he plans to appoint a new prime minister, shelving the threat of snap elections… though as the WSJ's Stacy Meichtry explains, the way out of the country's fiscal quagmire is still far from clear.
