Running Across Africa: The Mission That Transformed Lives

Running Across Africa: The Mission That Transformed Lives 


Keith Boyd broke a 26-year-old Guinness World Record by running
11,000 kilometers from Cape Town to Cairo, all to raise awareness
for poverty in Africa. He is also the founder of Rainbow Leaders,
a Pro-Democracy Youth Voter Education NGO and an advocate for
reducing inequality on the continent.

In this episode, Keith shares the story behind his
record-breaking run, from the physical and mental challenges to
the deep motivation that pushed him to finish. We dive into his
mission to end poverty in Africa and how his journey became a
platform for change.

We discuss the power of intrinsic motivation, how to face fear
head-on, and the critical role that leadership and trust play in
creating lasting change. Keith also reflects on his time being
held hostage and how it shaped his perspective on life and
purpose.

This episode is packed with lessons on resilience, purpose, and
making an impact in the world.
