About Andrew Pain
From Specsavers to HSBC, National Highways to the University of Liverpool, The Crown Estate and NHS trusts, Andrew delivers impactful keynote talks designed to inspire meaningful change. He is the author of Honestly Man: Why masculinity feels confusing, shame doesn’t help and what to do about it, due for publication in August 2026, with all profits supporting charities focused on men and boys’ wellbeing.
Andrew is also a lived-experience speaker on domestic abuse, addressing complex and often misunderstood topics such as why people stay, how abusive relationships develop, how to spot the signs, and how to support others effectively. His approach is both sensitive and constructive, balancing honesty with optimism. His TEDx talk (145K+ views) is one of only a small number exploring the taboo subject of female-perpetrated violence.
He is the host of the podcast Men on Show, which has surpassed 50 episodes and highlights the stories of everyday male role models alongside leading researchers in the field of men’s wellbeing. The podcast explores issues such as PTSD, addiction, suicide, resilience, fatherhood and identity, helping to open up important conversations around mental health.
An award-winning campaigner for wellbeing and gender unity, Andrew combines professional insight with personal authenticity. As a father of five, he also brings humour and relatability to his talks, connecting with audiences through real-life experience as well as expert knowledge.

Client Feedback
"A massive thank you from both of us and all the team at DLA. Andrew, we genuinely think you might be one of the best speakers we've had at the firm. The sessions have had excellent feedback, and we really appreciate how flexible and great you both were to work with, to get this in the diary. Am very confident we will work together again. Have a great rest of the week!"
DLA Piper
"His online delivery was flawless, with delegates commenting how instantly engaged they were, even when webinars weren’t usually their preferred learning style. If you are looking for a keynote speaker who will get your people having quality conversations about topics they might not ordinarily discuss, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Andrew."
BUUK Infrastructure
"Andrew delivered a hugely engaging and thought-provoking session. We received hugely positive feedback from both the men and women who attended the call, who found Andrew's talk incredibly insightful and took a lot of practical steps and resources away to benefit from moving forwards."
Pepper Advantage UK
"Andrew was proactive in ensuring his presentation was tailored both to our organisation and our audience. His engaging style of delivery brought the best out of our colleagues (even first thing in the morning), and we received many comments that they could have listened to him talk longer, so we’ve already booked him for another talk later this year!"
