Andrew Pain is a TEDx and CPD accredited speaker, podcaster, and author with a clear mission. He works to halve workplace burnout and disengagement by helping organisations create healthier, higher-performing cultures.
Research shows that only one in ten UK employees feels actively engaged at work, highlighting a significant challenge. Additionally, one in five employees took time away from work in 2025 due to stress-related mental health challenges.
However, organisations can address these issues by prioritising wellbeing as the foundation for sustainable performance. Andrew also champions the goal of building a zero-suicide society through greater awareness, compassion, and action.
Furthermore, he helps organisations create resilient, connected workplaces where people feel they belong and can speak honestly. Andrew delivers keynote talks on wellbeing and performance topics, including men’s mental health, burnout, resilience, and decision-making under pressure.
He works with organisations including Specsavers, HSBC, National Highways, The Crown Estate, University of Liverpool, Counter Terrorism Policing, and EDF. Alongside his speaking career, Andrew hosts the Men on Show podcast, which explores modern masculinity and men’s mental health.
The podcast creates space for conversations about domestic abuse, suicide, addiction, sobriety, PTSD, and other challenging topics. Andrew’s TEDx talk on domestic abuse draws from his lived experience and has reached over 145,000 views on YouTube. His message continues to resonate globally by encouraging greater understanding, awareness, and support.
His upcoming book, Honestly Man: Why Masculinity Feels Confusing, Shame Doesn’t Help and What to Do About It, publishes on August 6th. The book explores three key questions behind his men’s mental health keynote: Are men struggling? Why are men struggling? How do we help?
Andrew invests all profits from book sales into charities supporting men and boys as a long-term commitment. On stage, Andrew combines practical strategies, fresh insights, and an engaging style that feels authentic, energetic, and relatable. He also partners with organisations to create podcast series, facilitate fireside chats, and support media and video projects.
