CryptoGran Academy

I created CryptoGran Academy to serve mid‑life professionals—especially women—who wonder if they’re “too late” to invest and build wealth in digital assets. Our 9‑module, four‑week cohort turns crypto‑curious beginners into confident portfolio builders before the next bull run.

Looking ahead, my ten‑year vision is bold: empower one million people to become crypto‑ready, graduate 5,000 students per year through weekly cohorts, and grow a thriving Collective and Investment Club that champions profit with principles. Everything is delivered in plain English, guided by the values Sovereignty First, Truth Over Hype, Profit with Principles, Faith in the Everyday Person, and Community is the Armour.

I’m currently assembling a small advisory circle and forging partnerships with retirement planners and financial‑wellness groups, ensuring CryptoGran opens practical new income paths for a generation so often told it’s been left behind.

Founder

Yvonne Williams Coaching

I've spent over 17 years helping FTSE CEOs, C-Suite execs and entrepreneurs to find balance in their lives so they can focus on what matters most—their personal lives, their families, and their health.

My clients are obsessed with work—and it's hurting them. They're working long hours and sacrificing their personal lives for the sake of a company. They're keeping secrets from their spouses and children because they don't want to worry them about the stress of running a business. And they're addicted to the adrenaline rush that comes from the power they command both within the business and industry… but question whether that rush is worth it if it means that they have no time to see their kids grow up or spend precious moments with their spouse because they're always working.

I've been there myself, and I know how hard it is to change these habits once they've become ingrained in your life. My husband suffered from a breakdown due to work-related stress.  It was messy and painful, and it took much deep inner work to rebuild his life.

That's why I created my coaching practice: to help other leaders learn how to create healthy boundaries between work and life so that they could be present in all aspects of their lives again—and enjoy them.  

My practice offers individuals a new way of being, found through meaningful insights, and is much less about 'doing'.  This alone is often the breathing space clients need to dare to dream of a future filled with hope and purpose.

Behavioural Consultant & Mindset Coach 

I'm a 'late life' mother to twin boys who were born in 2019. I decided to slow down the practice and be present not only with time, but energy for my sons.

The time out for parenting also fuelled my desire to add to my more skills to my coaching portfolio by studying somatic and ontological coaching.  This has added new tools for those who have the greatest amount of work pressure and enables them to distinguish between the story they are telling themselves and their emotions.  It can create opportunities for new conversations, better outcomes, and less suffering.

I now focus on helping my client to learn how to be more conscious about language (assumptions), thinking (outcome generation) and emotions (genuine connection).

Recruitment Consultant

Burnout isn’t merely fatigue or foggy thinking—it’s the silent saboteur of bright careers and thriving businesses. I learnt this the hard way in 2008, when my husband, once a whirlwind of energy, unravelled under relentless workload and slipped into a breakdown I could only watch. That moment reshaped my life and forged my mission: step in before others reach the point of no return.

CLARIFY – SIMPLIFY – ENERGISE

Today I specialise in guiding senior leaders through their most intense chapters. My approach blends evidence‑based mental and emotional resilience coaching with down‑to‑earth operational advice that keeps the organisation moving while its leader regains their footing. No BS—just raw honesty, real talk and real transformation. In pursuit of my own work–life balance, I’ve shifted part of my focus into the ‘investment quadrant’. I occasionally draw on that experience to illustrate alternative income paths for leaders, but my core work remains guiding them through high‑stress periods and strategic exits.

Alongside my coaching practice, I run CryptoGran—a passion project that demystifies blockchain, Web3 and AI investing for Gen X and Baby Boomer professionals eager to ride the next tech industry wave.

Credentials & Focus...

• Work‑Life Balance & Burnout Prevention
• Exit Strategy & Portfolio Thinking
• Leadership Development
• Blockchain, Web3 & AI Investing (CryptoGran)

Based in Cumbria, I’m happiest tending the garden, hill‑walking with loved ones, or taking spontaneous trips to chase sunsets and make memories with my family—always with a notebook ready for the next idea.
