What’s it like to commit to the creation of a live event and then follow through to ensure it’s a transformational experience for every participant? Matt Evans, with his outstanding team, accomplished that audacious goal with The Ultimate Experience in Birmingham in May, 2024. You’ll be inspired as he describes to host Meredith Bell the many elements required before and during the event to pull off such a feat, including the unexpected need to change the venue months before the event.

Matt opens with his personal journey to finding sobriety and a new career in coaching. He talks about how he discovered The Ultimate Coach book and what resonated most for him. You’ll get a behind-the-scenes look at the speakers and participants, and you’re sure to be moved by the stories Matt has heard from various individuals about the impact the event has had on their lives.

About the Guest: 

Matt Evans is many things.

A people and business transformation specialist, a loving husband and father, a creator of incredible charity events, and a lover of coffee and baseball caps to name a few.

Matt completely turned his life around 4 years ago, going from a nearly divorced, anxious, depressed, and suicidal mess, to a life filled with love and fun, shifting his marriage, who he is as a father, and even creating a whole new life with the birth of his son Will through all this.

He has worked in and with some of the biggest and most iconic brands in the world, such as Aston Martin, Caterpillar, and the life-changing Guide Dog Association. Matt has helped hundreds of people improve their lives by changing their stories about who they are, often including the removal of coping mechanisms such as alcohol, drug abuse and other destructive behaviours.

Matt was the project manager for the first UK Ultimate Experience in London, and then creator, Event CEO, and more for “The Ultimate Experience – Birmingham,” where he raised over £30,000 for Birmingham Children’s Hospital.\

Matt is known for his no-nonsense approach to life, bringing his “most efficient and effective being on the planet” statement fully out of his management background, along with his incredible loving, fun and service-led way of being, to combine into his unique way of coaching and mentoring to help others be who they really can be.
