Podcast appearances and mentions of wayne alexander

In this episode, I look back at the amazing John Breen stable of fighters from 1998-2019. I recap the early days above the Monaco Bar with champions such as Jim Rock, Eamonn Magee and Neil Sinclair. Who can forget some of the massive nights in John's career with Martin Rogan and Paul McCloskey during the mid 2000's. Other champions featured include Stephen Haughian, Kevin O'Hara, Andrew Murray, Jamie Conlan, Marco McCullough, Paddy Gallagher, Wayne Alexander and many more.

Wayne Alexander is a former British, European and WBU world champion. He grew up in Croydon, England and would go on to have a very successful amateur career. He talks about the highs of those early days, winning national titles including the 1994 Senior ABA title. He also had the disappointment of missing out on the Commonwealth Games in 1994 which still hurts him 30 years on. Wayne turned professional in 1995 and would soon build up an unbeaten record before winning the British title in one of the fights of the year against Paul Samuel's. Wayne talks about stepping up at only 24 hours notice to challenge unsuccessfully for the WBO world title against undefeated Harry Simon in 2001. He would soon bounce back to defend his British title and add the European title a year later. Wayne would then go through a difficult spell when he would lose unexpectedly to Delroy Mellis in 2003 and would soon make a change in order to continue to win titles. In 2004 he would move stables to John Breen's Belfast gym and would face a massive domestic showdown with Takaloo for the WBU world title. Wayne would train like a man possessed and would go on to have one of the greatest knockout victories in British boxing history to claim the title. He also opens up about ending his pro career and how life has been since retirement. Wayne is a fighter that has certainly left his mark on the sport and will be remembered as a true warrior.

Episode 54 Doe ID: 'Gacy Victim 5' Francis Wayne AlexanderWhen more than 2 dozen male bodies were unearthed in the crawlspace of serial killer John Wayne Gacy's home in the Norwood Park suburb of Chicago in the late 1970's, Gacy's gruesome and twisted crime spree came to an end. But just because the killer was behind bars, the work of the investigators continued as they painstakingly tried to identify all of the remains. Over the years, most of the victims were identified, all but a handful. As DNA science evolved, it soon became clear that forensic genealogy may be able to help ID the rest, and in this episode we cover the case of one of those victims who was given his name back thanks to this technology. For years he was known as 'Gacy Victim 5'. We now know his name to be Francis Wayne Alexander, and this is his story.For all things DNA: ID, visit the show's homepage:DNAIDpodcast.comTo Support DNA: ID on Patreon, visit this link:https://www.patreon.com/DNAIDTo buy DNA ID Merch, visit this link:https://www.customizedgirl.com/s/dnaidpodcastFollow DNA: ID on Social Mediaon Twitter at- https://twitter.com/DNAIDPodcaston Facebook at- https://www.facebook.com/DNA-ID-True-Crime-Podcast-103667495017418on Instagram- https://www.instagram.com/dnaidpodcast/

Thomas McDonagh was a frustratingly good prospect from the Collyhurst and Moston gym in Manchester and learned his trade under the brilliant coach Brian Hughes.  McDonagh was a one club man, amateur and pro, and he boxed the likes of Anthony Small, Sam Webb, Wayne Alexander, Bradley Pryce and Andrew Face but he admits he didn't fulfil his potential. He was also a stablemate to the likes pop Robin Reid, Gary Lockett, Michael Jennings, Anthony Farnell and Michael Gomez and is known to be one of the funniest character in British boxing. Here, he talks about his career, the good boxing does, his relationships with Brian Hughes and Pat Barrett and life inside one of Manchester's most famous gyms.

In this episode we introduce two profiles of human consciousness: “reactive” and “creative.” Todays world is calling for the ambitious to be less reactive and more creative in our way of “being". Seeing ourselves AS our identity versus simply HAVING an identity is often what gets in our way because if we are our identity we need to preserve it to survive instead of play full out. Wayne and Sara explore this topic with Liberto Perada to find out how we can make this sometimes-difficult separation, and why it is important to unleash the full potential of not only yourself but of everyone around you. Liberto is Managing Director of Leadership Circle Europe, and also founder and facilitator at the consultancy Kanvio (for vitality) working with clients all over the world. Liberto is passionate about evolving a world based on trust and personal power. Where challenges, are references, and not obstacles. Where we use diversity to grow and change our reality from the self and throughout all his work is sourced from a belief that within each of us there is a creativity, power, wisdom and courage.

In this episode of Ambition. Unleashed. Sara and Wayne discuss the natural tension we all hold as humans between staying safe and striving for a bolder vision, mission or purpose. Lots of commentators talk about “leading with purpose”, but this is easier said than done. Striving for our true purpose often comes with inherent risk – livelihoods, relationships, our sense of identity, our ego. This leaves many of us “playing not to lose” versus “playing to win.” It can be toxic to the soul to only ever stay safe, but what can we do to bravely take steps towards living more purposefully? To help them answer this, Sara and Wayne sit down with Bob Anderson, a true pioneer in the field of leadership development and research. Bob has dedicated his career to exploring the intersections between leadership and personal mindset mastery and is the founder of The Leadership Circle Profile (LCP), an integrated and innovative leadership assessment tool used by Fortune 500 organisations to develop transformational and more conscious leaders. He's a very profound guy, and as a result their conversation was far reaching – but we encourage listeners to stay tuned, because the insights he offers are extraordinary.

In this episode of Ambition. Unleashed. our hosts Sara Moore and Wayne Alexander dive into the mindset shift of ‘Knower to Learner' They are joined by Beatrice Bigois of EDF Trading, a female Chief Executive in the male dominated wholesale energy sector who has made this belief core to her leadership philosophy to deliver phenomenally successful business turn arounds. Together they explore why loosening the grip of “knowing” to endlessly cultivate “curiosity”, in yourself and if you are a leader of people in your teams, is critical to unleash ambition and be successful in bringing to life a seemingly impossible future, idea or innovation you may be dreaming of creating.

The mindset shift we explore this week is from “predicting the future” to “declaring the future.” Bold declarations are the foundation of great leadership and are hugely powerful. In the previous episode of Ambition. Unleashed. our hosts Sara Moore and Wayne Alexander helped listeners understand how they can make the shift from limited to unlimited possibility – to help you first identity a new future filled with possibility. But this is only the beginning. Declaring that possible future in a public arena will inspire, energise and enrol the world to help you deliver it, even if you don't know exactly how you're going to achieve it. Imagine declaring the future you want to happen instead of predicting what might happen. How would that change the way you approached your ambitions? Leadership is language and making a declaration is a creative act that uses precise, un-caveated terms to bring a possible future into being. Declarations need to be wholehearted and made publicly to those who will hold you to account – remember JFK's declaration to get a “man on the moon before the decade was out”. True declarations are acts of bravery that put you and your ambitions at stake. And with the help of leading Executive Reinvention Coach and former Egg Online Banking Executive from its 90s/00s hey day – Neil Rodgers – Wayne and Sara explore the art and anatomy of making a powerful declaration.

Most people if asked to define an ambitious person would say something like “a person who knows what they want and where they're going”, perhaps with a big, hairy, audacious goal in mind - probably motivated by money or notoriety. But Ambition is less about knowing where you're going, but the size of the possibility you can see and would be willing to commit to for yourself and/or your business. This podcast is certainly for the self-identified ambitious, but it's also for those that feel they would like to grow the size of their ambition. In this first episode of Ambition. Unleashed. we introduce you to the mindset shifts we're going to take you through over the next eight episodes. Mindset shifts we believe - without a doubt - are the essential foundations for helping you to identify and achieve your biggest, boldest most breakthrough ambitions.

In this episode we explore the first mindset shift we believe all ambitious, or ‘like to be more ambitious', people should make if you want to at first identify your biggest, boldest, most breakthrough ambitions. In this week's episode we show you why, how and what you can do to shift from a mindset that may limit your sense of possibility to one that un-limits your sense of possibility. With the help of Stephen Carver – a superb storyteller as well as a Change and Project Management Consultant and a Senior Lecturer at Cranfield University School of Management, we discovering the forces that cause even the most ambitious people to strive what they think they can have versus what they really, truly want.

Action packed show today. First, we're joined by former professional boxer Wayne Alexander as he gives us his thoughts on Katie Taylor's win over Delfine Persoon. We discuss points scoring in boxing and how the sport can get away from controversial points decisions.  We talk about Dillian Whyte's knockout defeat against Alexander Povetkin, and how big a blow this is for Dillian's world title ambitions. We also dissect the rest of the heavyweight division and look forward to the potential 2021 fight between Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury.  Next, Oisin McQueirns (Pundit Arena) joins us to chat about Stephen Kenny's Ireland squad announcement and some interesting omissions. We look ahead to the Nations League games against Bulgaria and Finland and what we can expect to see from a Stephen Kenny Ireland team. There's also talk on Jeff Hendrick's latest move to Newcastle and we make a brief reference to Jason McAteer's latest comments.  00:12 Introduction 01:12 Katie Taylor Reaction (Wayne Alexander) 17:25 Our thoughts 20:23 Stephen Kenny's Ireland Squad (Oisin McQuerins) 44:53 Our thoughts 49:14 Madison Front - 'Sleep Off' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qmkSpjXMQe4 @tacklingsport - Social Media Subscribe to us so you don't miss an episode! tacklingsport.com

Michelle is also the only woman, thus far, to be given the designation of “Knight Commander” of the Royal Order of Kamehameha I for her continued work in promoting, protecting, and perpetuating the Hawaiian culture through the Lua. She was inducted into the 2016 Martial Arts History Museum’s Hall of Fame for altering the course of history of martial arts. A wood weapons maker and expert, Michelle is also the guardian and keeper of the only Kaihewalu Lua exhibit, located at the Martial Arts History Museum in Burbank, California. ​Michelle toured the Midwest as a professional Polynesian Hula dancer and choreographer (1990-2004). Lua was concealed in the Hula when Queen Ka’ahumanu banned the combat art from public display (around the same time Hula was banned). Lua is believed to been around a thousand years pre-Hula, which was approximately 1750 AD. Michelle now converts the Hula into the Lua. For the everyday woman, Michelle uses the Hula, Lua, Metaphysics, and Wellness to teach self-empowerment through the Butterfly Effect program (formerly the SHE (Super Hero Experience) program). Michelle strongly believes and can show that Lua and Hula (and Lomilomi) are the same use of energy. Lua is full contact (to bind and dislocate), Lomilomi is contact (to heal), and the Hula is no contact (storytelling).
