Talk. Learn. Connect. Grow.

Since 2018, I’ve been bringing professional men together through bold events, private dinners, and meaningful conversations.

Join an exclusive group of men who are done going it alone.

Operating as a Lone Wolf might sound cool –
But it’s a lonely path. And it only gets you so far.

The Network is where driven men come to connect, lpush each other, and move forward – together.

It’s not surface-level.
It’s not just talk.
It’s real strategy, honest challenge, and solid men on the same mission:
To build a life that actually excites them.

WMA Dinners

Great food. Sharp minds. Real conversation.

My private dinners bring together professional men from all walks of life –
Founders, creatives, execs, thinkers –
To connect in stylish settings across London, Winchester, and the Cotswolds.

No small talk.
Just bold discussion, fresh ideas, laughter, and stories you won’t hear on LinkedIn.

You’ll leave with more than a good meal –
You’ll leave with new insights, new energy, and new connections.

Not just events. Experiences that stay with you.

Since 2018, I’ve hosted powerful live and virtual events attended by men across the world.

From Soho House and Gieves & Hawkes at No.1 Savile Row
to South Place Hotel in Moorgate – these are not your average meet-ups.

I bring together sharp men to hear from those who’ve walked through fire:
Olympians. World champions. Special forces. Entrepreneurs.
Health experts. Māori warriors. Coaches. Adventurers.

Every event is built to challenge your thinking, expand your perspective, and leave you walking out sharper than when you arrived.

MOTIVATIONAL TALKS FOR YOUR TEAM

Real conversations that wake your team up – and raise their performance.

You can book me to speak in-person or virtually, delivering powerful, engaging talks that go deeper than surface-level wellbeing.

These sessions are built to help men (and the people around them) think better, lead stronger, and live with more clarity and energy.

Popular Talks Include:

  • The One-Day Reset
    How to build a morning routine that sharpens focus, energy, and direction – in under 30 minutes a day.

  • Outstanding Men Know It’s OK to Talk
    A real look at modern masculinity, leadership, and how to drop the act without dropping your standards.

  • Men’s Mental Health: Beyond the Buzzwords
    Why performance, purpose, and connection matter more than slogans – and how to actually help men thrive.

WORKED ALONGSIDE

  • “I’m a Director of a law firm and have been working with Anthony and WMA for four years. Before we met, I was confused, stressed, anxious, and my productivity was suffering at work. Anthony has helped me to gain clarity, to work through issues and problem-solve, to maintain a healthy work-life balance, and to ensure I focus on what’s really important to me. My productivity and profitability at work has virtually doubled! My home life is happy and secure. Anthony helped me to develop new skills and insights that help me to look after myself, and those around me.”

  • If you’re serious about levelling up in life, you need to speak to Anthony and get involved with the Wholeman Academy. I first met Ant through a private business mastermind, and from day one, his passion and purpose for helping men take back control of their lives was undeniable. Too often, as men, we ignore or overlook the very things that hold us back. Ant has a laser-like ability to cut through the noise, pinpoint the real issues, and give you the no-BS clarity you need to move forward. His direct, no-nonsense approach is exactly what most men need...but rarely get. And because it’s paired with genuine care, energy, and passion, the impact is massive. Since knowing him, I’ve attended many of his events and retreats, and every single one has been a game-changer...providing renewed clarity, purpose, and drive. He has also created a powerful network of like-minded men inside The Network...all driven to grow, support and push their own boundaries to take life to the next level. If you’re a man who wants to grow, become more successful, and stop playing small, Anthony and Wholeman Academy are exactly what you need.

  • I’m buzzing! Lots to think about, but more importantly, I feel like a man with a much clearer plan already brother and that’s thanks to you ;) Honestly, thank you so much for yesterday. It means a hell of a lot. Right…I’m off to do shit!!!!

  • I had the privilege of working with Anthony through the Whole Man Academy, and I can confidently say his impact is nothing short of transformative. Anthony’s passion for helping men find clarity, purpose, and resilience shines through in everything he does. Through his guidance, I’ve experienced profound personal growth—improving my health, fitness, and mindset, and gaining the confidence to take on challenges I’d previously thought impossible. His ability to foster a supportive and empowering community has created a space where men can connect, share, and grow together. Anthony is an exceptional leader, mentor, and advocate for men’s well-being. I highly recommend him to anyone looking to gain clarity, build confidence, and take control of their lives.

  • Don’t miss the opportunity to work with Anthony Astbury.....he has been an invaluable resource in guiding me to the path I’m on today. As a life coach, Anthony and the Whole Man Academy have been instrumental in helping me recover my energy, strength, and vitality for life. By holding me accountable for the choices I make every day, Anthony’s strategies provided the clarity I needed—not only in business but in my personal life as well. Anthony’s straightforward approach is incredibly effective at helping you break through the barriers and walls we often build over the years. His insights, combined with the supportive and like-minded community of the Whole Man Academy, create a space where honest conversations happen, and real progress is made. Thanks to Anthony, I’ve found the focus and determination to live the life I truly want. I couldn’t recommend him or the Whole Man Academy highly enough for anyone seeking transformation and growth.

  • Ant is a force of nature, and I can honestly say that getting to know him with him has been a game changer. His coaching (and events through The Network) have helped me to level up over the past 10 months, and if you are looking to change aspects of your life for the better - or even have a total reboot - he can help you get there. He is funny, likeable, and tells it like it is . He uses a whole host of techniques tailored to you - physical, mental and even spiritual - to help you round out the areas that are lacking in your "wheel of life". Daily journals, stoicism, dietary advice, educational resources, guest lecturers, events, and 1:1 coaching are just a handful. At the core, he focusses strongly on personal accountability which he believes is at the root of a winning mindset. He is freely and unashamedly who he is, and expects the same from you. If you're not willing to face the hard truths, his uncompromising reality and communication style might not be for you. But if you are, and want to effect positive and lasting change, I recommend him wholeheartedly.
