Welcome to our first podcast of 2025! In this episode of Lead the Standard, Inspired by insights from LTS Newsletter #2025_01: https://email.auditortrainingonline.com/lead-the-standard-2025-01 we talk about a feeling many of us can relate to—being stuck on a career hamster wheel. It’s that sense of running and working hard, but not really making progress. We explore why this happens and how you can take steps to break free and make real changes in your ISO career.

Key topics covered include:

■ Personal Responsibility: Taking ownership of your choices and actions to create change in your career.

■ External Influences: How things like your environment, relationships, and cultural norms can affect your progress.

■ Internal Influences: Understanding how your mindset, beliefs, and emotions play a role in shaping your actions.

■ Fresh Starts & Motivation: Why the start of a new year can be a great time to reset your goals and take action.

✨ Feeling stuck? It’s OK to pause and reflect—but it’s also important to take the next step. Don’t miss this episode for simple advice to help you break free from the career hamster wheel and start making real progress.
