Scott Pollei

Marketing Manager at Arena and 1st Counselor 13th Ward of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints

“Dr. Reid is an exceptional orator with a rare gift for connecting with his audience. He speaks with clarity, passion and authenticity—drawing people in and making them feel like they’re part of the journey he’s sharing. Most recently, he gave a remarkable talk to my group about his experience summiting Mount Everest. It wasn’t just a story about reaching the top of the world—it was an inspiring lesson in perseverance, preparation and courage. Dr. Reid’s ability to weave his personal experiences into powerful takeaways left us not only captivated, but also motivated to face our own challenges with renewed determination.”

Kyle Poll

CEO Get Out Pass

“Today we held our first FOGO (Friends of GetOut) Speaker Series with Mr. GritItDone! Dr. Reid Tileston taught us that "Style Matters", "Adapt or Die", "Positivity is Potent", and "Doing Hard Things Makes Us Stronger". I suppose he'd know, because he just freaking climbed Mt. Everest!!! Great way to kick off our monthly speaker series. Thank you Dr. Reid! If any of you are looking for a killer keynote for an upcoming event, look no further”’

Juliana

Business Owner

"I didn't expect to leave feeling like I've been hit by a motivational freight train."

Jason

Business Owner

"Shoutoud to Reid Tileston for sharing his daily routines that uses to achieve his impossible dreams. Everyday he picks the top thing he does not want to do, visualizes himself achieving it, commits to another person, then gets it done that day. That's how he got to the top of Mt. Everest 2x in the last year. Inspired me to ask a board member of my company to resign today"
