Anthony Astbury

Anthony Astbury is the brains behind Boardroom Collective and the founder of Whole Man Academy. BC is a place where men come to think clearly, talk honestly, and get their drive back, so they stop drifting and start leading it again. He created Boardroom Collective because most men who want to improve their lives only see three doors: -Therapy, which can help you unpack the past but often keeps you there. -Coaching, which can spark change but is expensive and rarely consistent. -Self-development, which works in theory but is bloody hard to do alone. BC is the fourth door — where men face what’s really going on, and get straight talk, structure, and support to move forward. What makes it different is why it exists: Anthony has spent 7+ years studying what truly makes men stronger — synthesising lessons from hundreds of his podcast conversations, articles, and real-life experiences. He’s become a researcher of great men, blending timeless philosophy, modern psychology, and lived experience to deliver it all in his own no-nonsense, grounded style. After two decades in the City, Anthony walked away from the Rat Race to understand why so many high-performing men still feel stuck, disconnected, and quietly frustrated. Through the years he’s worked with ambitious men, helping them find direction, confidence, and consistency in every area of life. BC gives men what they need — honest conversations, grounded wisdom, and the courage to take back control of their lives.
