Listen to today's podcast... A friend of mine, had been promoted over the years, rewarded for her achievements and was a solid employee. During a major corporate transition she was given a new department that needed a lot of help in restructuring. She worked hard through long days, with little progress. And the results were devastating for her health to the point where she had to leave. What could have been different? Her supervisors should have seen that the new role was unrealistic for one person to handle. They should have noticed the excessive overtime. They should have spotted the impact it was having on her health. And they should have worked with her before she felt that she had no choice but to leave, or feel like a failure. We know that engaged employees help our companies to be more creative, productive and successful.

Welcome to RIMScast. Your host is Justin Smulison, Business Content Manager at RIMS, the Risk and Insurance Management Society. In this episode, Justin interviews Nick Quigley, Risk Manager at the Saskatchewan Association of Rehabilitation Centers (SARC). This is Nick's second career, after starting in the Canadian Military. Nick explains how he joined the military before graduating from high school, the training and education he received, and his field of operational risk and training safety. He says he loved his work, but in 2019, he was medically retired with PTSD. Retirement got old fast, and when he got the opportunity to help a company recover from the problems of the COVID shutdown, he stepped up. From there, he joined SARC, where he works today. Nick speaks of the recycling mission of SARC, and how he has increased his education while there, receiving the RIMS-CRMP recently, and continues his studies. He recounts some of the activities of the Saskatchewan RIMS Chapter (SKRIMS), where he serves on the board. He shares how he manages his PTSD and why he advocates for removing the stigma around mental health. Listen for insight on living with PTSD while managing risk at a major non-profit organization.

[2:10] On with the Show! Our guest today is Nick Quigley, the Risk Specialist for the Saskatchewan Association of Rehabilitation Centers (SARC). He is an educator, a veteran, and a member of the Saskatchewan RIMS Chapter (SKRIMS). Justin met Nick at a SKRIMS event. [2:34] Nick will discuss the work he does for SARC, which handles recycling and energy efficiency, his involvement with SKRIMS, his certifications, including the RIMS-CRMP, and what it's like to be an educator. [2:48] For Mental Health Awareness Month in May, and in Canada, Mental Health Week from May 4th through 10th, Nick will tell us how PTSD impacts his life and his career as a risk professional, how he handles these challenges, and offer words of comfort. Let's get to it! [3:18] Interview! Nick Quigley, welcome back to RIMScast! [3:32] Nick is wearing a shirt that reads: Risk Manager: I solve problems you don't know you have. Nick has worn that shirt to board meetings, senior management meetings, presentations, and to his class when he was teaching. [4:22] Justin mentions a great presentation Nick led last year. After the presentation, Justin wanted Nick to be on RIMScast. Nick also has a RIMS CRMP Story. [4:57] Before Nick was out of high school, he saw an ad for the summer: Do you want to make $6,000 this summer, and do you like being outdoors? Nick grew up in a small community on Prince Edward Island, and he loves the outdoors. [5:34] He filled out paperwork, not noticing the top of the form, Government of Canada, Department of National Defense. When he showed up at the recruiting center for testing, he saw what he had done. [6:06] Nick followed through, did his basic recruit training and his trades training, and became qualified as a signals operator. His job was radios, satellites, and IT. He enjoyed it. But he got an opportunity early on to focus on operational risk and training safety. [6:35] It was not a traditional 9-to-5. Every day there was something different. That's what kept it exciting. Nick retired in 2019. Then came COVID. People who knew Nick's background asked him to come work with them. He went back to work and found out he enjoyed it again. [7:16] Nick found a second life, working full-time again, in risk management. Nick's background was in operations and crisis and emergency management. He has a degree in emergency management. [8:17] Nick says retirement was fun, at first. All his friends had to go to work, while he did what he wanted. It was also lonely, because all his friends were at work. It got old, really fast. [9:19] Nick says when he retired, he did some little projects and woodworking, but that got old, too. Doing it all day felt like work, not a hobby or a passion. It got lonely and boring, and he needed a change. [9:51] Nick got recruited into risk management from somebody who knew his military background and offered him a chance to assist them during COVID. He got his ISO 31000 while he was there. Shortly after, he went to a large, non-profit charity where he is the risk manager. [10:38] The charity manages all the recycling across the Province of Saskatchewan. Nick got his RIMS-CRMP within a couple of months of starting this position. He has been a lifelong learner. Education can lead to a better outcome when it comes to real-world applicability. [11:14] Nick says education gives you a baseline understanding of what you need to know. Experience allows you to modify what you have learned to fit the situation. [11:44] People tell Nick he has more letters after his name than in his name. He believes education is important. Now he is working toward becoming a Chief Internal Auditor from the IIA. [12:21] Nick explains how SARC operates across Saskatchewan. They collect aluminum cans and other materials from customers and return the deposit fees to the customers. They sort and process the materials and ship them to downstream market partners for recycling. [13:49] SARC has several streams: aluminum, plastics, glass, flexible packaging, and styrofoam. [14:00] Yesterday, April 20th, was Earth Day. SARC takes that seriously. SARC's mission is to have a large recycling presence and to be the best at what they do. [14:52] Nick is fascinated by innovations coming out now in how we leverage technology. Nick read an article about Finland using their data centers underground to heat houses and businesses. [15:38] Nick is always looking for ways to make things more efficient or streamline processes to make them better. If we can do that by reusing materials instead of taking them out of the earth, why not? [16:02] Nick is the Risk Group at SARC. He is a department of one. He gets to dictate his priorities, with guidance from senior management and the strategic initiatives. He can look at things across the organization. Nick has the trust of senior management. [17:03] Nick makes sure senior management is apprised of situations that will negatively affect them, their mission, vision, values, or the strategic priorities. They rely on his expertise when things pop up. [17:32] Nick says when he started, one of the interesting things he got to do was to follow the recyclable material from start to finish. What does it go through at SARC, and where does it go downstream? He spent a lot of time building out those processes to make them efficient. [18:10] Nick worked with Operations and Processing to see how they are doing it and look at it from the perspective of reducing risk, unneeded redundancies, and bottlenecks. [18:45] SARC and SARCAN, the recycling system, have been around since 1989. They had processes. It's a large, fairly mature organization, with about 1,000 employees in 76 locations across the province, serving 1.1 million people. [19:15] Nick's role was to validate the processes. Are they efficient? Can we do better? What can we change? How does the customer experience get better? We want people to bring back their recyclables. If it's a barrier, they're not going to bring them back, and it's wasted material. [19:31] Saskatchewan has a collection rate that's higher than that of other provinces. Some provinces don't have a system. Others rely on a curbside collection system. [20:16] The provinces share knowledge. They have a collective, and the senior management confers with them and shares knowledge about what works and what doesn't. SARC is a non-profit charity, and some of the other systems have a for-profit system. [20:49] SARC owns and operates the collection depot and the recycling system. They don't have the intricacies and risks of working with external businesses in the process. They own the process. They don't have the risks that come with third-party management. [21:36] A Quick Break! RISKWORLD 2026 will be held from May 3rd through the 6th in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. RISKWORLD attracts more than 10,000 risk professionals from across the globe. It's time to Connect, Cultivate, and Collaborate with them. [21:56] Public registration is open, and booth sales are still available. Links are in this episode's show notes, and be sure to check out RIMS.org for more information. [22:06] We will kick off Day 1 with a conversation with Adam Grant. He is an organizational psychologist, best-selling author, and a leading management thinker. [22:13] The excitement continues with the announcement of the closing keynote. NFL Hall of Famer, Super Bowl Champion, Emmy-winning broadcaster, and entrepreneur Michael Strahan will be on the main stage on May 6th. Justin is super stoked! [22:29] If you're still on the fence, this is the time to smash that Register button and hear from one of the all-time greats.

Also, remember to check out RIMS.org/Canada for our spinoff show, RIMScast Canada, hosted by National Conference Committee Chair, Aaron Lukoni. [23:29] Let's Return to Our Interview with Nicholas Quigley! [23:34] Nick was interviewed for a RIMS-CRMP Story. Nick loves having RIMS-CRMP after his name. Few people in Saskatchewan carry it. Some people don't know what it is. [24:10] Nick sits on the Saskatchewan RIMS Chapter board, and he also acts as an advocacy officer. He promotes understanding of the designation. Canada has a CRM designation, but the RIMS-CRMP designation is also available and just as important. [24:59] Justin says there are 13 RIMS-CRMP certification holders in Saskatchewan and 172 in Canada. He hopes to raise those numbers. [25:12] In Nick's RIMS-CRMP Story, he talked about his military experience and some of the mental health challenges he experienced with it. Regarding Mental Health Week, May 4th‒10th, and Mental Health Awareness Month, in May, Justin asks what Nick wants to share. [25:52] Nick has been a proponent and advocate of reducing stigma around mental health. He lives with PTSD. It's not going to go away, but he can function with it. There are good days and bad days. Everybody has a bad day. [26:35] When Nick has a bad day, he restricts his movement and interaction. He needs a day to reset. That's what it is now. When he was first diagnosed, it was a lot different. There were a lot more bad days than good days. It could extend for a week or two at a time. [27:01] Nick says, now, a bad day comes about once every three months. It's just something that he lives with. Nick knows the triggers, and he can sense when it's coming. When he knows that it's coming, he informs his boss, and he takes a sick day. [27:27] Nick says that in his role, he advocates for the disability sector. It's one of the values at SARC, as well. The culture is open to that; there is no stigma in his office. It's not the norm across the corporate culture of any industry, and Nick has found it to be a challenge. [28:00] When Nick retired in 2019, he was medically retired because of his diagnosis. If he hadn't been diagnosed, he'd probably still be in the Army. He loved his job and what he did there. He was not ready to retire, but he had to retire. [28:21] With retirement, there came a lot of acceptance and grief. When veterans retire, it's like losing a family. You spend more time with the people you work with all day than with your family. You get posted overseas for extended periods. [28:42] Those are the work buddies you know and live with. Then all of a sudden, you have to retire. It's a hard adjustment, especially when it comes to mental health. [29:00] Nick says the best thing you can do when you have PTSD is to hang out with people and create normalcy. When you get retired, that gets taken away from you. It takes a lot of time to come to terms with that. Some veterans need a lot of assistance with that transition. It's hard. [29:55] Nick says PTSD can hit military, police, fire, and paramedics. It doesn't discriminate. It can happen in a corporate environment. It's traumatic, whether it's vicarious trauma or trauma that you experienced. [30:13] If you have repeated exposure, without processing and dealing with that trauma, if you continually suppress it, eventually it becomes PTSD. [30:56] Another Quick Break! The Spencer Educational Foundation's Risk Manager on Campus application period is now open, and it will close on June 30th. Grant awardees, colleges, and universities are typically notified in September. [31:17] The Course Development Grant application deadline for Interval Number 2 will be on June 15th, 2026. Award notifications will be sent out in late July. [31:32] General Grant applications will open on May 1st, 2026, and the application deadline is July 30th. Internship Grant applications open on August 15th and close on October 15th. [31:44] Links to each of these grants are in this episode's show notes. Visit SpencerEd.org for more information. [31:53] Let's Conclude Our Interview with Nick Quigley! [32:17] It took Nick a long time to come to terms with being open about PTSD. There's a lot of stigma still around it. [32:40] When Nick was ready to go back to the workforce after retirement, it was a challenge to find work, simply because risk managers may have to deal with a crisis. They have a lot of stress put on them. [32:59] People see PTSD in movies, and they think it means you're low-functioning, that you can't handle any stress, and that it's exacerbated to the point where it's unmanageable. Those are not the people who just live with it day-to-day. [33:25] There may be an unconscious bias that people with PTSD may not be suited to this role. It's not true. Military veterans are probably the people you want in high-stress jobs. A military member's worst day at work is worse than anything the corporate world can throw at them. [33:56] Military service comes with a lot of risk and a lot of high-pressure scenarios. Nick says there's nothing in the corporate environment that shakes him. You can tell, in a room in crisis, who the military veterans are. They're the ones sitting, talking to each other, not freaking out. [34:50] Nick advocates for mental health all the time. Nick has a service dog that goes with him everywhere. Often, people stop him with questions. He tells them that, as a veteran with PTSD, his dog helps him function. [35:37] Nick is open and honest about PTSD. He says if we can be open and honest about it, it lowers the stigma around it and normalizes it. People don't expect such openness, but Nick doesn't care to hide it. [36:48] Justin shares a link for CMHA.ca and their Mental Health Week page and resources. [37:06] Justin notes that SKRIMS is one of the top chapters of RIMS. SKRIMS Annual Golf Day will be on Wednesday, August 19th, at the beautiful Harbor Golf Club in Elbow, Saskatchewan. Check out the Saskatchewan.RIMS.org page for more information. [37:35] Nick says being at SKRIMS is awesome. He has sat on many boards, and it is difficult to find a group of volunteers so passionate and so willing to do anything and everything to give back to the membership. The SKRIMS board asks how to give back more. [38:08] Nick says last Fall, SKRIMS did a volunteer day at Habitat for Humanity. On April 24th, they're volunteering at a food bank. They'll have contingents at both Saskatoon and Regina at the same time. [38:50] SARC is supportive of Nick's involvement with SKRIMS. They help where they can. Where they can't, the SKRIMS board works around it. That's a benefit of having such an active board. If Nick doesn't have capacity with his workload, another person on the board steps up to assist. [39:28] Justin mentions some of the board, including President Katherine Dawal, Chelsea Wilson, and Chelsea Andrusiak, and other SKRIMS members; a great group of folks who are making a difference. [40:13] Nick says SKRIMS has pushed educational institutions to offer risk management courses. There's one in development with a Master's Certificate. A board member, Jim MacKenzie, taught the first Uncertainty Management course at the University of Regina. [40:33] Nick is just finishing the Risk Management course at the University of Saskatchewan. Nick is a sessional lecturer. This is the first University class he has taught. He loved the class and his students, with their engagement and curiosity. [41:02] With Nick's students being business and finance majors, all risk applies to them because risk is not siloed; it's overreaching. Now they have foundational risk management knowledge as a base, so they are better equipped when they enter the business sector. [41:56] Nick says he asked his class to estimate when the first episode of Gilligan's Island was aired on TV. They all said it was in the '80s or '90s, not 1964. He definitely dated himself with them. A lot of the references fell short because they weren't born until 2001. [43:02] Nick's last words on the risk profession, "It is an interesting field. It's never the same. The thing I love most about it is that I can work anywhere. I can work for any company. I am not stuck in one vertical market. If a company needs to manage risk, you can provide value. [43:21] "That's one of the most interesting things; I can learn about vertical markets and sectors, but I can still apply my risk knowledge to assist them. I don't need to be a subject matter expert in their field. I just need to assist them and prompt them to look at it the right way. [43:40] "That's more valuable than anything. In some careers, you go down the path. If you're a plumber, you're a plumber. You can't be an electrician tomorrow, right?" [44:13] Nick, it's been a real pleasure to see you again, and I hope to see you at the RIMS Canada Conference, October 18th through the 21st, in Quebec.

King Charles is facing renewed pressure to address Prince Andrew's association with Jeffrey Epstein as newly released Department of Justice files spark fresh controversy.Victims' lawyer Brad Edwards is calling for a “sincere, real apology” on behalf of Andrew and any role played by the Royal Family, while survivor advocates accuse authorities of “thwarting justice” after references to Andrew in the files appeared more heavily redacted following their initial release.The documents show Andrew continued corresponding with Epstein in late 2010, including sharing a confidential Helmand investment briefing weeks after publicly claiming he had cut ties. Separate emails reference “the Palace” in connection with alleged phone hacking claims, though no supporting evidence was provided.Palace advisers are reportedly divided over whether a public apology would demonstrate compassion or risk legal consequences. Meanwhile, commentators warn the monarchy is battling simultaneous crises: the Andrew scandal reignited, King Charles undergoing cancer treatment, and the ongoing rift between Prince William and Prince Harry.Even a surprise Children's Mental Health Week engagement by Catherine struggled to shift the headlines.Is silence still a strategy — or is the pressure finally closing in on the King?Get episodes of Palace Intrigue by becommming a paid subscriber on Apple Podcasts.

We will miss him.In tribute, we are reposting episode 20 of Developod, where he was interviewed by Christian to mark Mental Health Week in the UK. They discuss Phil's personal experiences with mental health issues, what ELT employers can do to help their employees, and what teachers can do to manage their own well being. It's a great example of how Phil used his own struggles to selflessly support teachers around the world.Phil's blog: https://teacherphili.com/IATEFL Q&A on Phil Longwell's Webinar on Mental Health in ELT:https://www.iatefl.org/news-views/q%26-phil-longwell%E2%80%99s-webinar-mental-health-eltScreencast Recording from Phil Longwell on Improving the Mental Health of English Language Teachers:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ijFMplEgKWsBlog from Phil Longwell on Covid-19 Mental Health and Wellbeing:https://teacherphili.com/2020/03/21/covid-19-mental-health-and-wellbeing/Mental Health First Aid Training Courses e.g.:https://www.sja.org.uk/courses/workplace-mental-health-first-aid/Free courses:Understand the Physiological impact of lockdown on our Wellbeing and Mental Health on Maudsley Learning and Tavistock & Portman NHS Foundation Trust's course (the UK's premier mental health training organisation): https://www.futurelearn.com/courses/psychological-impact-of-covid-19Help Young People Manage Low Mood and Depression with the University of Reading: https://www.futurelearn.com/courses/low-mood-during-covid-19Manage Mental Health and Stress on Coventry University's course: https://www.futurelearn.com/courses/managing-mental-health
Reality star Jordan Burrow won hearts on I Kissed a Boy—the BBC's flagship queer dating show hosted by Dannii Minogue—but his story goes beyond the groundbreaking global hit show.In this episode, Jordan opens up about using his platform to start real conversations: from coming out in a remote rural village, his love of football and sports, to his bold message on the biggest billboard in Manchester UK, dedicated to his dad during Men's Mental Health Week. The powerful image, featured in Attitude, made headlines—because saying “I'm doing okay” shouldn't feel radical, but it often does.Also how many queer footballers are there in the top leagues?

You were trained to be ethical. To follow the rules. To keep yourself out of the spotlight and let the system guide the way.But what happens when the system itself is no longer fit for purpose?In this milestone episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on a truth I've been sitting with for a long time — and the reckoning that finally made me say, “I can't keep pretending this is working.” This isn't a celebration. It's a confession. A call to those of us who've felt the discomfort of playing small while the field we love becomes harder to recognize.You'll hear the story behind my 2016 keynote that went silent, the inner war between staying beloved and speaking what's true, and the unignorable patterns I've witnessed after mentoring hundreds of therapists trying to do business ethically — but innovatively — in a profession that resists both.If you've ever wondered:Is it just me, or is the system actually broken?Why does it feel like there's no room for nuance or newness anymore?Can I still be a therapist if I want to burn the rulebook?…this one's for you.In this episode, I discuss:The therapist identity crisis: why staying safe often means staying silentHow outdated ethical codes are strangling innovation and visibilityThe story of a therapist being investigated for a Mental Health Week post — and why it's not an outlierWhat happened after my 2016 keynote — and why I buried the leadership part of me for yearsThe psychic split between scaling a beloved brand and stepping into disruptive truthWhy the future of mental health is being built outside our profession — and why that terrifies meThe real patterns I can't unsee anymore: watered-down offers, clinician burnout, unethical wellness gurus going uncheckedA soft reveal of the Mental Health 3.0 Compass — not a product, but a new lens to see what's nextA call to those who feel “too much to be seen, but too big to stay small”If you've ever felt like you're breaking some invisible contract just by wanting more — more impact, more honesty, more space to grow — this is the episode that will name what you've been carrying.

In this special episode of Dam Parenting during Men's Mental Health Week, we open up a vital conversation about fatherhood and mental health—a topic still too often left in the shadows.We're joined by two fathers from our international community who share their personal journeys into parenthood. One speaks candidly about the emotional toll of having a newborn in the NICU, and the other reflects on the everyday challenges of raising a young family while living with ADHD. Different stories, same truth: fatherhood can be heavy, and vulnerability isn't weakness—it's real strength.Did you know?The rise of paternal burnout and why nearly 1 in 6 fathers in the Netherlands report burnout symptomsHow up to 1 in 4 dads experience postpartum depression within the first six months after birthWith burnout, emotional overload, and the pressure to "stay strong," many fathers are struggling in silence.

This week marks Men's Mental Health Week in Aotearoa – a time to kōrero about the challenges that many men face, and to break down the stigma that still surrounds emotional well-being. For a long time, the phrase ‘harden up' has shaped the way men think about vulnerability, and in turn, often pushes men to bottle up emotions, instead of reaching out for help. ‘Soften Up Bro' is a kaupapa grounded in Te Ao Maori values, encouraging men to embrace softness, honesty and connection. To talk about men's mental health in Aotearoa and this movement, I spoke to co-founder of ‘Soften Up Bro', Heemi Kapa-Kingi.

Together, we explore how shame, silence, and societal expectations can create barriers to seeking help, especially when experiences don't fit the stereotypes.This episode was recorded during Men's Mental Health Week, but the conversation is relevant all year round.Key Takeaways:James' personal experience of addiction, binge eating disorder and excessive exerciseThe similarities and differences between addiction and eating disorders, and how they can intertwineThe impact of stigma, silence & societal expectations on menThe role of support groups in recoveryThe role of masculinity and gym culture in disordered eatingHow James uses his lived experience to support others in recoveryWhy inclusivity and accessibility matter in recovery spacesTimestamps:06:00 – James' journey through addiction and ED recovery12:00 – Masculinity, stigma & opening up20:00 – Gym culture, control & body image27:00 – Lived experience in therapy workTrigger Warning: This episode contains discussions of eating disorders, addiction, and mental health challenges.

Meanwhile, Clean Air Month brings a warning about radon dangers, with local data revealing high levels in most Stark County homes.

This is part two following on from last week's podcast guest Graham as he opens up about his initial skepticism when asked to participate in live hypnotherapy on Instagram for Mental Health Week. Despite his doubts, he took the plunge and, for the first time, experienced a profound sense of calm and serenity—an outcome he never thought possible as someone living with ADHD. Graham shares how hypnotherapy has impacted his mental health in ways he didn't expect. He reflects on how it differs from traditional talking therapy, offering insights into its unique ability to access deeper emotional healing. One of the most poignant moments of this episode is Graham's account of finally visiting his brother's grave, five years after his tragic passing—a step he attributes to the positive effects of hypnotherapy. Graham's story is a testament to resilience. As a passionate advocate for mental health, he shares how fitness continues to be a cornerstone of his well-being. From the highs of post-workout clarity to the struggles of staying consistent, he emphasizes how exercise is as vital for the mind as it is for the body.

In this episode, we dive deep into mental health with the incredible Graham Dale, a passionate advocate who not only shares his journey but actively supports others by speaking about managing ADHD. This week, we bring you part one of Graham's story. He opens up about how exercise has been a cornerstone in managing his mental health. From the post-workout highs to the moments he struggles without it, Graham candidly discusses the transformative power of fitness—not just for the body, but for the mind. Graham shares a powerful and emotional story of how, one Christmas Eve, his mental health reached a critical point. In a moment of desperation, he sought help at a local police station, an event that, while not unfolding as he might have hoped, ultimately changed the trajectory of his life. Graham's heartfelt message comes with a trigger warning, as we delve into sensitive topics. His story serves as a reminder that mental health needs attention every day, not just during awareness weeks or holidays. He reflects on the loss of his brother, who was tragically killed five years ago, and how that grief shaped his journey. We also explore his experience with live hypnotherapy during Mental Health Week and its impact. Graham's resilience shines through, not only in his advocacy work but also in his personal life. Balancing his own challenges with ADHD while lovingly supporting his grandson highlights the importance of compassion, structure, and understanding in both fitness and mental health journeys. As we approach Christmas, this episode aims to reach the one person who might need it most, reminding them they are not alone. Tune in, take what you need, and remember: mental health matters every day of the year. Enjoy the episode! Follow Graham on TikTok adhdas_fcuk It's FREE!
