This week on The Set Peace Podcast, we’re joined by a Brett lambert Wright with a family named expected to be a professional footballer his journey through the game has now taken him into a new chapter as a licensed football agent.
Having come through and spent time on trials at clubs including, Leyton Orient, Chelsea, Manchester City and Reading, this gave him a first-hand understanding of the realities, pressures and demands of football at different levels of the game. From academy environments his journey provided valuable lessons that now shape how he operates off the pitch.
In the first half of the episode, the experiences of trials at different clubs, adapting to different environments, and dealing with rejection and what it takes to navigate the professional game. We talk about how his career was cut short by dealing with a health implication that would change everything
In the second half, we speak about the battles and mental health challenges faced by him. We also speak about the struggles that at the time he didn’t know he had but on reflection it’s so much clearer. The conversation shifts into his transition into becoming an agent. After missing his first attempt, he successfully passed his FA agent exam in November 2024, showing resilience and determination to stay within the game in a new capacity. By January 2025, he had signed his first player, and within months, that journey reached a major milestone when his client secured Lincoln City’s first £1 million transfer in August 2025.
We dive into what it really means to be an agent the responsibility of managing careers, the importance of trust, and how his own experiences as a player now influence the way he supports others. This is a conversation about growth, transition, and finding purpose beyond playing.
The set peace podcast is about more than football it’s about the people behind it.
Every 2 weeks, we sit down with guests across the game from pros to physios, coaches to players, these are the conversations we all need to hear, in football and in life.
With 45 minutes talking football and 45 minutes on mental health and well-being these conversations are for everyone whether you’re in football or not.
