2017 - 2018 EVENTS WITH FAMILY AND EVEREST - TREK 17 DAYS UP EVEREST THEN RUN A MARATHON WHEN YOU ARE UP ON MOUNTAIN..


My first session back .. Peter Kennedy spin class at David Lloyd which is a very tough class , very educated man on spin class and cycling amazing athlete ... I know its tough as unable to train after class..

I start with end in my mind and during the recovery period from Kilimanjaro I was carrying out multiple visualizations and timelines and attaching sensory acuity through to end of 2017, even at times floating down and feeling the events of the future.

 As I start to train I look at building the master piece of a canvas where each jigsaw piece represents the perfect strategy to achieving these goals  ..

So here are main events..



169 days run 4 days and cover 80 km just under two marathons in Disney ..Lesley Kidd joining me and going half marathon .. This takes me to 4 marathons in 4 continents and Lesley to her second half marathon




293 days family marathon in Rome to celebrate Lesley 50th birthday,, Lesley wanted to see sights so I found out marathon runs through them all ... Ryan Kidd joining us and doing his first ever marathon .. Amazing ..


527 days I trek 17 days up Everest then run.a marathon


I achieve many things by pushing the limits.

1 Great bond and stronger relationships with family.
2 Creating a Legacy
3 My own personal Growth and transformation
4 Inspire my customers and people within my business.
5 The clients I coach accelerate to a whole knew level.
6 I become a better leader and person.
7 I constantly reinvent myself which then leads to setting bigger goals that make me even more emotional when I think about them.
8 Make a difference and raise money for worth while charities..
9 Meet amazing people around the world who are like minded.
10 It leads to innovation, as I train and do events I challenge myself to challenge reality and create something that does not exist today..

It is in your moments of decision that your destiny is shaped.
If you do what you've always done, you'll get what you've always gotten.
Setting goals is the first step in turning the invisible into the visible.


My personal THANKS TO Dr Bandler and Tony Robbins, two people I have developed myself under for many years..two people who changed my world completely in so many ways.. stevie kidd

All I ask is use your imagination please --Below is example of a moment in Kilimanjaro - Video is in darkness because thats what you do on last day to summit..

Best way to get most from this is just imagine the scenario after reading what is below.. before you watch clip... in the clip I am at 18200 feet and can see nothing.... but I have head lamp on..
Tonight I was delighted to have been given update on Kilimanjaro edited footage, we will not have long to wait now to see the journey..
Some facts first, when I left Kilimanjaro airport this huge plane was in the air 20 minutes then I seen top of Kilimanjaro when I looked out my window, also when I headed from London to Glasgow, the flight said it was at 5352 m, Kilimanjaro is just under 6000m, all these different scenarios puts everything into perspective..
This piece of film you cannot see anything really as this is me climbing to summit at last part of 6 day climb, amazing 6 days to climb 2 days to come down.total of 53 miles.. So Let me set the seen for you..
We left a base camp at 8am ( half way point) this morning to trek on foot to Kibo camp ,which is another camp that sits right below Kilimanjaro, this took what felt forever as when I reached Kibo it affected emotionally. On trek we came though a snow blizzard and was all uphill as you would expect, I was more overwhelmed than anything I think as this journey started from a non runner proving a point about the mind. From this camp we have around 6 hours to Gillian point and 8 hours to actual Kilimanjaro summit, now at Gillian point you can turn back or go to summit, I chose to carry on....


At Kibo we sit at around 17500 feet with over 2000 feet vertical climb in snow, ice and rocks... so when we arrive at Kibo you are told no sleep, as dinner will be in 2 hours, then you sleep for 2 hours.You are then woken up at 1030pm by your guide team who are still smiling and laughing to be fed and mentored for you to prepare for the climb in the dark from 11pm... I went outside and felt the wind, snow, and coldness, I looked up and could see nothing but small light bulbs, maybe 6 all the way up... Fred looks at me and says, " Do not worry, do what your strategy tells you to do, mirror me all the way, and before we start he says, you are not carrying a bag, you have carried one to this point but now is too dangerous, I agreed...
Before we left to start climb , I stood outside with a tear running down my cheek and for a few minutes relived the journey to date, but for me to do the following its rare, but I came to the actual moment and embraced it looked at the mountain in darkness and stillness , I lived in the present and cried and not ashamed to say that, after about ten minutes I brushed myself down, let the fear escape me and said Fred I am ready my friend...
At this point I knew deep inside this was going to be the most I would grow on the journey and beliefs would change within me, you have to just imagine it, its vertical and you tackle it like multiple sssssssss all the way up.... this will absolutely live with me this part for a very long time.... in fact all my life,, the day and night I reached Kilimanjaro where I walked for 20 hours with 4 hours rest really... the top of the summit, well was so real for me..... I am sure the VT will demonstrate the life journey I have went on... it changed me in so many ways.. I can see , hear and feel my spirit within me every second of everyday... a feeling a freedom, enlightenment and love..... xx www.steviekidd.co.uk


Vt Will give you feel for experience..

Stevie Kidd & Prudential Partnership -- Customer Case study and Evaluation.



This is example where corporate companies use my Consulting / Coaching Services to support the Business. In this Case it was financial and insurance Business Prudential, this was the Evaluation of the partnership working.. I worked with a few hundred people within business, 2 months to plan partnership working .. www.steviekidd.co.uk 








Prudential Objective

Prudential Wanted a partnership with someone who could help the people of the business to think differently. Also to mentor the people of the business  to understand that change is inevitable and how having the right mindset can get you through any change. Also Support the people to understand that their actions will have either a positive or negative reaction, We want our people to look at our customers in a different way and understand signals that they give as well as looking past a customers issue to get to the real issues they have to ensure we deliver the best possible service for our customers.

Leaders and People feedback

So we were looking for someone who was personable and engaging, looking back we defiantly got that from Stevie Kidd and more...

We evaluated that a very high percentage of the people of prudential got Stevie in so many ways, We were looking for someone to plant seeds in peoples minds about what they could do differently and how they could influence the business with the intention of the leadership team continuing this work through sessions and growing the seed that had been planted. This certainly has happened as many people have continued to talk about you and use examples from your time with us, its evident a big seed is about how we can continually improve as a team and as individuals. The people in the business are on a very high since you came and worked with us all.



Personal Touch.. and impact you made...

We also have a high volume of people who took a lot of personal reflection from Stevie's time with us, especially in how to look at things differently in your life as well as what they do in work. I can understand this, as your work is all people focused and for us this was something that all levels of staff involved could relate to.

When witnessing the volume of people who wanted one to one time this was big indicator on how you had touched everyone and how big an impact you had actually made..



New Pilot for us at prudential...

This was our first time bringing in external support  and we were very skeptical about how it would land. I also felt we aimed to high in attempting to achieve 75% success rate and engagement rate . In the evaluation we are delighted to say it was a success our people are talking about how it will absolutely improve their lives, how it will improve customer relations but also improve peoples roles in our business which really is fantastic.

We feel and see the mindset of the teams has changed since you came in and worked with us as peoples buy into change is quick now. The people come across more engaged in the business now and link into the business goals more.

We are absolutely delighted in engaging with Stevie Kidd, he is unique and his work is transformational as his work proves.Our time was a great success.

When I engage with partners its about what the end looks like for the customer. At this point I look beyond that result to exceed expectations beyond comprehension. It a lot of time planning to allow us to bring the jigsaw pieces together as a partnership. A lot is about Business, Customer but also about the individual person and linking everything. As I say to people where you are is where you are meant to be, we cannot have 100% success all the time, but in Prudential case we had 75% to 80% success as a partnership we are delighted..
