Lead with calm, clarity and courage
Even when emotions run high
I help leaders and professionals stop people-pleasing, communicate clearly, and use anger as a source of strength.

You struggle to speak up without feeling guilty
You replay conversations in your head afterwards
You avoid conflict even when something feels wrong
You carry the emotional weight of everyone else
You want to lead with confidence but doubt yourself
You don’t lack confidence.
You’ve just never been shown how to work with your anger constructively.
Anger-Informed Coaching is a reflective coaching framework that repositions anger as a meaningful emotional signal rather than something to suppress.
Developed through over 20 years of coaching practice and doctoral research, it helps individuals recognise hidden anger, release it constructively, and communicate with clarity and confidence.

Clients often experience:
confidence in difficult conversations
the ability to set boundaries without guilt
clearer decision making
stronger professional relationships
reduced emotional overwhelm
the courage to lead authentically

Hi there! I’m Tanya Heasley, author of A Letter to My Anger and the creator of Anger-Informed Coaching® (AIC) — a framework that transforms anger from something feared into something deeply beneficial.
For over 20 years, I’ve helped people turn reactivity into reflection, conflict into connection, and stress into self-leadership.
As an autistic entrepreneur, coach, and researcher, I understand what it’s like to feel misunderstood, silenced, or “too much.” My work combines lived experience with evidence-based coaching to help you turn emotional struggle into strength.
It’s not about fixing yourself.
It’s about finding yourself — again.
Because anger, when understood, becomes a force for clarity, courage, and connection.
Trusted by educators, leaders, and professionals who want to live and lead confidently.
