A husband and wife from Oldham have said they wanted "to share everything" in a new book which documents their inspiring story.
Ryan and Jenna Williams have shared their book Blood, Sweat and Tweets, which explains what went on behind the scenes as Ryan built up his successful career as an entrepreneur.
Ryan, 35, previously co-founded and co-owned KOMI Group, a social media and marketing agency, before selling his stake in 2022, which all started from him creating comedic social media accounts.

However, while Ryan was building his career, himself and Jenna, 39, encountered many personal obstacles, including Jenna losing her mother, suffering a miscarriage and being diagnosed with endometriosis.
Ryan said: "After the business exit, people were saying I should write my story, but I just thought I'd be shouting in a crowded market.
"Me and Jenna got talking and we said how good it would be to put our thoughts down, to look at how it affected our lives."
Jenna gave up her career to support Ryan and raise their two daughters, becoming the "glue" who held the family together.
She joked: "I said that if he wrote a book then I would write my own to tell the truth.
"We wanted to tell everything, going all the way back to when we first met until now."
The cover of the book shows Jenna holding Ryan up, which is to show how she supported him throughout his career.
Jenna says that writing the book felt like a "therapy session" but added that "it was harder than I thought it would be".
Ryan and Jenna both come from humble beginnings, originally from Chadderton and Hathershaw respectively.
But despite the success, the pair insist they have not changed and have stuck to their roots.
Ryan said: "We're both very normal people, we had the business success but it's not changed us as such.
"We come from humble beginnings and have put in a lot of hard work and a lot of sacrifice."

Looking ahead, the couple said "you can never say never" when asked if they would write another book and that they are planning to start a podcast where they would discuss parts of the book and their stories.
Blood, Sweat and Tweets, which is co-authored by Lolo Stubbs, is available to buy on Amazon for £9.99 and is published by Bronzite Books.
