Nick Powell & Emmelia Powell

After making a meteoric rise from Crewe Alexandra to Manchester United under Sir Alex Ferguson, Nick Powell quickly learned that the dream of football at the highest level came with a cost. In this candid conversation with Nick and his wife Emmelia, they reflect on how his love for the game began to fade under the weight of contracts, money and expectations. Still playing at Stockport County, Nick opens up about the personal and professional highs and lows he's experienced since, and how he's now using his journey to guide others as a financial adviser.

Alongside him, Emmelia shares how she carved out her own path - building a successful business in financial advice while raising a young family and challenging outdated perceptions of athlete partners. Together, they discuss how MOJOE is helping athletes explore new careers with confidence, build networks of support and redefine off-pitch success.
