Jed Wallace: An Unconventional Journey To Pro Football

This week Andrew talks with West Bromwich Albion team captain Jed Wallace. Jed is amidst a remarkable pro football career & has played in over 500 professional games. Yet unlike many of his peers, Jed didn’t join an academy at age 7 or 8. Instead, he spent his childhood and much of his teen years simply playing football with his friends. In this conversation, Andrew asks Jed about his unconventional path to pro football that’s taken him from playing on school playgrounds all the way to some of England’s most prestigious stadiums. You’ll hear actionable ideas on differentiating yourself, turning setbacks into opportunity, & so much more.
