Hi, I'm Andrew.
I help smart overthinkers get out of their own way, and speak, work and live with more clarity and impact.
About
Back in the day, I was an anxious copywriter who hated presenting. Fast forward a few years, I became a stand up comedian, a go-to creative for big pitches and a keynote speaker.
That journey taught me about a lot about communicating with confidence - and now I help others do the same. It's why I created Pitch Imperfect, a unique presentation skills training for creative agencies.
I'm also the author of The Overthinker's Guide to Life, the founder of Overthinkers Anonymous (OA), and the creator of LOL Goals™: on setting goals that are so exciting and scary they make you laugh out loud.
Everything I do centres on a genuine passion for helping smart people get out of their own way. I find creative ways to turn anxiety spirals into possibility spirals. I help overthinking leaders, founders and creatives back themselves and work with more clarity, freedom and impact.
How I can help
Pitch Imperfect: Present like a human. Sell like a boss.
A unique presentation skills training for creative agencies. Pitch Imperfect reduces anxiety, lifts confidence, and spreads the presentation load so it's not just the same two people carrying the team. My first client chose this over the D&AD's pitch training.
Keynote speaking: Book me to speak at your event
With a background as a stand-up comedian, workshop facilitator, and creative storyteller, I can deliver a keynote that's entertaining, insightful and practical.
Overthinkers Anonymous: Read the book, join the club
Do you overthink things? Is your mind always busy? I wrote The Overthinker's Guide to Life and created Overthinkers Anonymous for you. You can join the club and check out the first 40 pages of the book for free here.
Coaching: Work with me 1:1
I take on a small number of private clients each quarter. If you're navigating a career leap, preparing for a talk, or finding your confidence again – I’ve got you.
What clients say
Sally Forsyth-Spark
Managing Director, Point 6 Design
"I can't recommend Andrew highly enough: a brilliant, insightful and empathetic coach and trainer."
Russ Hodgson
Creative Director
"Andrew really strives to make everything he does both entertaining and useful.
The fact that he has an agency background makes him ideal for this kind of work, plus his experience as a stand up comedian was an unexpected bonus - he definitely knows how to read an audience!"
Adam Curtis
UK MD, SAM Research
"Andrew's 'You are not your thoughts' talk was a perfect balance of insightful observation and practical application. His lucid yet relaxed delivery made for an extremely engaging session, which resonated to the extent that the conversation kept going long after the call was closed!"
Kenny Fox
Research Director at davies + mckerr
"I started working with Andrew as my coach when the self-critical voice in my head suddenly found a megaphone. He made me realise that these thoughts were just that, thoughts, and gave me the tools to understand them. I'm without doubt more confident in my job and life, which I put down to working with Andrew."
Emily Larkin
Head of Employer brand at the BBC
"Andrew provided invaluable support to my overthinking mind, as I navigated a recent career transition and landed in a new role.
I always leave the sessions with a renewed sense of calm and connection to my instincts. I would recommend to anyone who could benefit from a regular break from a busy head, in a relaxed, grounded, and entirely non-judgemental space."
Gemma Isaac
Vice President People and Organisation, International, at Sony Pictures
"Andrew's Overthinkers Anonymous session was incredibly valuable and practical. Some initial participant feedback was that for the first time they felt equipped with tools that could genuinely help."
