It's not been easy, but Leanne Crichton can look with fondness on a career that has only got better and better.
She battled adversity to make sure she made it as a Scotland international and now is a legend of the women's game.
There's also a career in the media now fully on the go, a field in which she is viewed as one of Scottish football's brightest pundits.
Not only that, but she's helping Motherwell head coach Paul Brownlie in his quest to build a squad capable of competing at the right end of SWPL 1.
Crichton appears on the Lanarkshire Live Sport Podcast to discuss her national team memories, Motherwell and life in the media.
