Break Your Own

Glass ceiling

I’m Bryony Williams—creating quiet spaces where founders, executives, and rising leaders discover their greatest potential.

Let me guess...

Is this you?

Executive stuck in the doing rather than leading

Professional returning from a career break, unsure how to reclaim confidence

Founder carrying the weight of every decision alone

If any of these feel familiar—or you simply feel “meh” about work that once energised you—welcome in.

I’m Bryony, and I help driven leaders find 

calm, clarity, and momentum

Each day, I welcome three kinds of individuals into my practice: 

thoughtful founders and executives seeking deeper impact; 

professionals navigating life's pivotal transitions who need a steady compass; 

and emerging leaders ready to find their authentic voice in the room.

My coaching approach offers a rare commodity:

—A peaceful harbor where reflection flourishes. In our one-on-one conversations, we gently peel back layers to reveal insights that often hide beneath the surface. I listen for what's unspoken, helping you articulate the thoughts that matter most.

When I facilitate workshops:

You'll find an atmosphere where teams breathe, connect, and solve challenges together (sometimes with breathwork and LEGO!). From early-stage ventures to established businesses, I've witnessed how dedicated reflection time and practical direction can transform scattered potential into aligned purpose.

What my clients value most:

Is how our work together creates breathing room amid constant demands—a chance to pause, realign, and move forward with renewed clarity. They leave our sessions feeling both energised and grounded.

"A few invaluable sessions with Bryony and I have a clear and exciting path ahead."

Running my own business and juggling a busy family life, I realised I needed help. A few invaluable sessions with Bryony and I have a clear and exciting path ahead. The magic of everything coming together was simply empowering and such a relief. 
Bry brings this special gift of listening, and combines it with real commercial experience - ensuring the direction I go makes real business and operational sense. She is exceptional at finding words and phrases to summarise our sessions and has hugely helped with my inner narrative too. Don't even hesitate at the chance to spend time with this wonderful ray of light.

"Bryony is a fabulous coach with a warm, gentle and honest approach."

I signed up to complete Bryony's 'Happy HR Method' programme and whilst I had a feeling it would help me on my journey I had no idea that working with Bryony would be so life changing! Bryony is a fabulous coach with a warm, gentle and honest approach, helping you see things that perhaps you need to even if you don't want to! She facilitated the group coaching sessions in such a way that it created a wonderful safe atmosphere to share and help each other.
If you've lost your way and aren't sure which way is up, then I highly recommend considering working with Bryony, she helped me find my sparkle again, maybe she could do the same for you.

"Even the shortest of conversations leave you feeling refreshed and determined."

Words to describe Bryony - an inspirational, dedicated and hard working professional. I’ve been engaging with Bryony via The Glass Female on a number of different areas over the last year, ranging from new HR processes & documentation to leadership training to specific HR guidance. Bryony is categorically my go to professional in this area without a doubt, and I’m never done with providing recommendations. Even the shortest of conversations leave you feeling refreshed and determined, having someone who so quickly can change your mindset is just a complete breath of fresh air. Bryony is an exceptional listener, and treats all concerns with the strictest of confidence. Providing guidance or comments on each situation by delivering the facts and resources, she really has a solution for every problem!
