About me.

 

I’m Andy Nathan - a men’s coach helping high-functioning men who feel emotionally stuck reconnect to purpose, truth, and clarity.

Today, I’m engaged and living in Scotland, running two businesses, and halfway through a two-year, master’s-equivalent training in Jungian Depth Coaching for Men. I train in Judo and the gym. I lead powerful men’s work grounded in emotional depth, challenge, and real change.

But 15 years ago, things looked very different.

It looked like I had everything. Inside, I was lost.

Career. Home. Holidays.
But under the surface? I was anxious, disconnected, and second-guessing everything.

I didn’t grow up with a man who could show me how to handle emotions or relationships.
So when life got messy, I had no map.
Emotionally, I was a teenager in a man’s body.

Behind the scenes, I was cracked open by:

  • A serious car crash

  • Armed robbery

  • A mugging at knife point

  • Sexual abuse as a child in the Scouts (I didn’t tell anyone until decades later)

I tried to look like I had it together.
But inside, I was barely holding on.

Especially in relationships.
No matter how much I gave, things would spiral - fights, shutdown, anxiety.
I was called needy. Then cold. Then too much.
Eventually, I figured I just wasn’t built for love.

I tried everything:

CBT. Therapy. Podcasts. Books.
Mindset hacks. Courses. Breathwork apps.

Some things helped, briefly.
But underneath, I still felt like a boy trying to be a man.

The shift came when I changed careers

Teaching yoga and meditation helped me sleep for the first time in years.
It was healing. Until it wasn’t.

I still chased validation.
I still avoided conflict.
And in hard conversations, I crumbled.

The real transformation started when I stopped trying to understand everything - and started feeling.

 
 

What changed everything:

Transformational Breathwork cracked something open in 2020.
It helped me access grief, shame, and truth I’d buried for decades.
And it brought me into rooms with strong male facilitators - men unafraid of trauma, rage, or pain. I spent the summer going deep into my own processes and then training to facilitate.

Men who could meet me emotionally and mentally.

That work woke something up in me.

At the same time, I met my now-fiancée, closed my yoga business, and moved to a new country.

I started my first men’s groups.
And a year later sought deeper mentorship - not from an influencer, but a seasoned therapist, neuroscientist, and self-made millionaire in the men’s online group mentorship program he founded.

He saw straight through the performance and masks.
He broke me down and rebuilt me through real rites of passage.
That’s what I had been needing and had never realised.

And I’m in the midst of a two-year MA-equivalent certification in Jungian Depth Coaching for Men with him now.

That’s why I do this work.

Because most of the men I work with are versions of who I was:

  • High-functioning but emotionally shut down

  • Successful on the surface, but stuck inside

  • Disconnected from what they actually want

They’ve done therapy. Read the books. Tried to fix it.
But something’s still off.

This work isn’t about burning everything in your life down.
It’s about getting honest - stripping back the masks completely.

It’s about letting go of the things that no longer add value to our lives - however hard we’ve been leaning on them for safety and security.

This work enables us to face our fears instead of denying them.

So many of us have difficulty in dealing with the rapidity and necessity of change as we get older, partly because naturally our lives are getting ever shorter.

Do you understand how much power you have to make changes in your life?
