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.

You’ll hear actionable ideas on differentiating yourself, turning setbacks into opportunity, & so much more. Show Highlights:0:00 - Intro2:37 - First football boots4:01 - Humble mindset7:20 - Identifying areas for growth8:30 - “It’s been a journey for all of us”12:25 - Finding your strength15:45 - Standing out from the pack19:50 - Growing through adversity21:52 - Turning setbacks into progress26:27 - Being named captain of West Brom28:31 - Team mindset30:45 - Gratitude** Follow Andrew On Social **Twitter/X: @andrewhmosesInstagram: @AndrewMoses123Sign up for e-mails to keep up with Andrew's podcast at everybodypullsthetarp.com/newsletter
