Welsh Legend Phil Kingsley Jones Talks Philosophy, Humor and Life
Phil Kingsley Jones is a Welsh legend. Comedian, Entertainer, Rugby Coach, Sports Agent and Manager, Business Development Manager, Author, Speaker, Coal Miner and Pie Seller all describe this lovable rogue.
Born in the Valleys of Wales, he became an internationally acclaimed comedian, touring with some of the biggest acts of the 70's and 80's. He hit the road with the likes of the Beach Boys, Neil Sedaka, Cliff Richards, Lionel Ritchie, the Comodores, Dr Hook and Frankie Valli. You name them, Welsh legend Phil has worked with them.
In the 1980's Phil fell in love with a Kiwi girl and moved to New Zealand where he went back to his early passion, Rugby. He later became a coach and sport manager. He was manager to the legend that was Jonah Lomu—one of the first Rugby professionals. Jonah was like a son to Phil and we hear of Jonah's early career and how special this man was.
In this interview Phil shares his life philosophy, his wicked sense of humour and gives an open and candid insight into the roller coaster ride that has been his life so far. All with a very welsh chuckle.

I am getting my mojo back with regards to my health and running after treatment for breast cancer, I connected with Lisa as I was looking for positive influences from people who are long distance runners and understand our mindset. Lisa’s podcasts have been a key factor in getting me out of a negative space where I allowed others limiting beliefs to stop me from following my heart and what I believe is right for me. After 18 months of being in cancer recovery mode I wanted to get out of the cancer mindset and back to achieving goals that had been put aside. Listening to Pushing The Limits has put me onto other great podcasts, and in the process I have learnt so much and am on a pathway to a much better place with my mindset and health. Thanks so much Lisa for doing what you do and always being you.
