Names like Lonnie Mayne, Buddy Rose and Dutch Savage may not be familiar to some today, but for fans of Portland’s professional wrestling scene of the 1960s to early '90s, these were some of the headliners that sold out the old Portland Sports Arena. As first reported in Slam Wrestling, two Portlanders have been working to preserve the history of the Pacific Northwest wrestling scene and making sure these names and more aren’t forgotten. Rich Patterson is one of these historians and a video wrestling archivist. Kerby Strom is a fellow historian of the scene as well as a collector of memorabilia. He also recently had recovered footage played at the Hollywood theater earlier this week. Strom and Patterson join us to share more on the history of the city’s wrestling scene and what they’ve found while collecting.

Lonnie's father was a second generation pro wrestler–a villain, who turned kind, soft and human with his fans after the match. His uncle was a turnaround executive leading several companies from distress and treating everyone with respect. Lonnie followed his uncle's path, working to right companies in difficulty for thirty years until he started Red Shoes Living to create the kind of culture in companies that he'd learned in his youth. Red Shoes stresses the basics that we know and seem to forget: seeing the person, being thankful, understanding that someone's actions might be related to an unknown story, treating everyone well and putting yourself out there. You can't help but be captivated by Lonnie.

In work and life, positive and negative situations throw us off balance. But with great leadership, every moment is an opportunity to stand out for the positive, overcome the negative, and be the best version of ourselves. As Lonnie Mayne once said “Most of us are in jobs that we don't really want to be in, we might have passions that are outside of it. One of the things Red Shoes does is it brings the cool factor back into the business, in life and it gives people purpose and a reason to show up”. In this episode of Fifth Dimensional Leadership, I speak with Lonnie Mayne, Founder & CEO of Red Shoes Living Inc. Lonnie is currently a Keynote Speaker & Leadership Authority. He is also the Author of Red Shoes Living: Stand Out for the Positive in How You Work & Live Your Life. In our conversation, Lonnie talks about standing out in work and in life by evaluating and reinventing ourselves into the best version we can be leading through positivity. Lonnie spent more than 20 years on the executive leadership scene. He worked closely with leading brands across 25 industries to help them inspire employee engagement with the battle for top talent, create outstanding customer experiences and build a meaningful company culture. When he was the president of InMoment, one of the largest customer experience technology companies in the world, Lonnie deployed a five-step leadership framework that his team used to grow the company by 817% in a short period of time. This platform eventually became known as Red Shoes Living and led to Lonnie becoming an in-demand keynote speaker and global consultant for C-level executives, leadership teams, and Fortune 500 companies. In a world that has reached a crescendo of negativity and complexity, Red Shoes Living is a constant reminder to stand out as a beacon of positivity in your work and life. Things you will also learn in this episode: The Red Shoes Living Reciprocity Effect What “compression” of people is in certain work environments What it means to be the best version of one's self. The one question that changed how Lonnie thinks - about everything! What it means to ”Rebuild your house” Quotes “Treat those who have more than you as equals, and those who have less than you as Kings and Queens; if you live your life that way, it'll count for plenty.” - Lonnie Mayne “How we treat people and what we put out there, for the most part, we get back – it's appreciated and reciprocated.” - Lonnie Mayne “If you're not taking care of yourself, you can't take care of other people.” - Lonnie Mayne “Keep your ego in check; if you don't, the world's going to knock it out of you.” - Lonnie Mayne “If we're not moving forward and working on mastery every day, we're actually falling behind because today is totally different than tomorrow.” - Lonnie Mayne “We will be better off for having gone through the trials and tribulations that we've gone through.” - Lonnie Mayne “When we give up on hope, we give up on everything.” - Lonnie Mayne “Don't give up hope or belief in people; we're human, we're imperfect, and it's not always going to be great.

In this powerful Red Shoes Living Podcast, Lonnie Mayne talks with Bronze Medal Olympian, Kellie Wells Brinkley. This is a special and talented woman you want to know. Her story keeps you on the edge of your seat and you find yourself cheering her on throughout the podcast. Kellie shares the incredible hurdles she powered through, over and conquered, to go on to win the Bronze Medal in 2012. It was considered one of the most dramatic stories in the history of the Olympic games.Kellie shares with us her belief that "not all types of movement is progress. Sometimes, you have to stop to move forward." She also believes that when you think you have reached your "glass ceiling", set a new one and keep pushing. Kellie Wells hails from Richmond Virginia. She attended James River High School where she graduated with honors and then chose to attend Hampton University in Hampton Virginia. During her time at Hampton University, Wells was a four-year letterman, three year Captain, elected the school’s most valuable athlete, earned all Mid Eastern Athletic Conference honors, and made history by becoming the school’s first NCAA Division 1 All-American in any sport. While she thrived on the track, she managed to graduate college in three and a half years and go on into the University’s five year MBA program and complete that early as well. Kellie suffered a heartbreaking injury at the 2008 Olympic Trials where she was unable to compete in the finals due to a severe hamstring tear. Wells made an impressive comeback in 2011 by winning her first USA outdoor and indoor national titles and dominating the 100-meter Hurdles. Wells’ winning time of 7.79 at the 2011 USA Indoor Championships was the No. 1 time in the world for the year and at the ninth fastest of all time. In the summer of 2011, Wells also went public with another heartbreaking struggle she faced – being sexually abused by her mother’s boyfriend. Wells moved out of the abusive house in the 10th grade and a few weeks later her mother passed away in a car accident along with her mother's boyfriend. Wells unknowingly drove past the accident site on her way home, not realizing her mother was in the car wreck.

In this incredibly powerful episode, Lonnie Mayne talks with Dean McKee, a man wrongfully convicted more than 30 years ago for a murder he did NOT commit. Dean spent 30 years in prison and fought day in and day out to prove his innocence. The Innocence Project eventually took his case and in time were able to get his conviction overturned and he walked out of prison, a free man, January 9, 2018. Dean has never been compensated for his wrongful conviction and 30 years in prison. It would only make sense that he would be very cynical, angry, and bitter. Shockingly, he is not. Instead, he has forgiven those involved in this injustice and is full of gratitude for his life and his freedom and is working hard to build a life for himself and his wife, Danie. He has known Danie since they were 15 years old. Danie walked with and fought alongside Dean to help secure his freedom.Dean and Danie now live in their beautiful home with their dog, Buddy. They enjoy working in their vegetable and flower gardens. Gardening was something that became a life-line for Dean while in prison. They have built a business together, Inside Ink Tattoo Studio, based in Largo, Florida. This was a dream of Dean's throughout his incarceration. Dean's attitude of gratitude and spirit is something special to behold. In his own words:"I am so grateful for my life and my freedom and all of our family and friends that we have made, and who have supported us on this journey. Life outside is so different than what I’m used to after 30 years of prison, and I am forever grateful for the people that worked so hard to get me home."

Lonnie Mayne joins us to discuss the Red Shoes Living philosophy - a frame work to achieve your best life at work, play, relationships, and more. cultivatewellnesspodcast.com @cultivatewellnesspodcast Always brought to you by Peoples Rx, Austin's Favorite Pharmacy!
The (wait for it) Mayne word of this episode has got to be ”connection.” You'll hear it in the easy communication between Spanny and his guest Lonnie Mayne as they discuss connecting with others and with audiences as professional presenters, as well as staying in touch with personal intent and ideals. This type of awareness makes all the difference in the richness of your days. Lonnie's striking stories including interviewing a man unjustly imprisoned for decades and developing Red Shoes Living, his signature approach for standing out with high standards. Listen for his story of packing red shoes for a trip with less-than-perfect attention …
Leaders strive to create a culture where people are passionate, motivated and engaged. Putting a positive framework in place allows for an organization, and the people within to be at their very best. Executive Leader... The post 012 – Using a Positive Mindset to Create a Stand-Out Company with Lonnie Mayne appeared first on Learn to Win | The Scrimmage Podcast.
When Lonnie was just a kid, he remembers hearing the cheers for his pro-wrestling dad rise from the stands. But every time he stepped out of the ring, he’d shake off his Moondog Mayne persona to connect with his fans on a human level. After his father passed away, Lonnie spent his summers traveling with his uncle who was a CEO “turnaround guy” and his personal business mentor. He sat in meetings with him and watched him get the best out of others by treating them like people first and employees or customers second. Over the last few decades, Lonnie has been a technology executive and before that an executive navigating mergers and acquisitions. During the most challenging times, he often asked himself: “How can I turn this noise down and develop the full potential of our people and our organization?” He knew there had to be a more respectful way to have tough conversations, handle company changes, and build team trust and resilience. A more inspired way to get others showing up every day, feeling excited to get to work. A more personalized way to serve customers and stand out from competitors… And he also knew where these changes would have to start: Not with the company, but with the leaders building and inspiring the company culture. To answer all these tough questions, he created a simple, life-changing, and value-driven performance model. It’s called Red Shoes Living and its applications go far beyond the work environment. Listen in on our conversation during Spartan Media Fest as we discuss his role as a father and how Red Shoes Living applies to life, business and parenting.
Lonnie Mayne credits his father, who was a professional wrestler known as “Moondog” Mayne, with inspiring a deep sense of kindness and respect in him from a young age. Lonnie carried this with him into the corporate business world, where he quickly saw the value of real humanity and treating others with respect. For the first 18 years of his career, he grew with a customer experience technology company that would become one of the biggest in the field, always holding his humanistic values at the core of his work. Today we're discussing his new book Red Shoes Living, and how humanizing business creates high performance, and allows you to play big. “It's a higher level of leadership or awareness, because you're literally treating every single person you come in contact with, with respect and understanding, and that it's on us to pull out all of that goodness in them…so ultimately you get performance.” What You Will Discover How to create high performance through humanizing your business How to stand out from the rest of your competition and be number one in your field Using business partnerships to validate you and spread your message Resources Buy a copy of Red Shoes Living at https://www.amazon.com/Red-Shoes-Living-Stand-Positive-ebook/dp/B07TN349VZ Learn more about Lonnie and his work at https://lonniemayne.com/

Let it be known that, at the SpartanX Leadership Forum in the fall of 2018, The Spaniard choked up. A couple times, in fact. You'll hear it during this panel-style talk moderated by Lonnie Mayne of Red Shoes Living. The crowd genuinely appreciated Spanny's vulnerability … not to mention his reeling off all of the topics in the most recent book he had read, Joe De Sena's ”The Spartan Way.” Have a tissue and take a bow, Span Man.
