The Alan Williams Podcast

Show Notes

Ryan Smith describes himself as “unemployable” a few years ago, despite having got his degree, relevant experience and played football to a decent level.

In this podcast we hear his incredible story of going from that point to working with Liverpool women’s team in the WSL and coaching Irish internationals Evan Ferguson & Jake O’Brien in a 1-1 capacity.

It’s a story of resilience, spirit and an unbreakable determination to squeeze every ounce out of his talent in order to achieve his dreams.
