Let’s talk about what no one wants to talk about. Grief. Death. Endings. Change.
The messy, difficult, beautiful, necessary parts of being human that we’ve been taught to avoid.
I believe when we stop running from death and the discomfort of life’s big transitions - we can truly come alive.
Whether you're leading a business, navigating loss, or longing to live life like you mean it - you’re in the right place.
I work within the complicated intersections of life and business’ big transitions and endings. Helping you to navigate your path through and into the emergence of new beginnings.
Supporting you to navigate their forwards path through grief, endings, life transitions and personal growth. Through my Root & Rise method grounded in presence, nature, body connection and nervous system regulation.
For leaders and organisations on who want to be on the Leading Edge of Change. Understanding your ecosystem and where change is needed. Co-creating your Leading Edge Strategy that taps into the collective wisdom of your team.
A twice weekly podcast bringing death out of the shadows and into the mainstream. Through honest conversations and personal reflections, we explore how being present with death, grief, and all of life’s endings teaches us to live more fully.
From keynotes, to panel facilitation, to co-creational workshops, to deep sharing circles, I craft immersive experiences that speak to the heart of what it means to be human in times of change. Rooted in storytelling, real connection, strategy, soul and self reflection.
Hi, I’m Tanya
Coach. Cultural consultant. Death & Grief Guide. Bereaved Mamma. Nature lover.
My mission is to transform how individuals and organisations engage with change, loss, and uncertainty - by applying the wisdom of impermanence. I believe death and endings aren’t the opposite of life, but part of it - and when we stop resisting them, we unlock our greatest capacity for growth, presence, and purpose.
I wholeheartedly support people and organisations through the transitions that shape us. The change we have been resisting, the endings we fear, the grief we carry, and the deep transformations that come from the compost.
My own path was cracked open with the death of my daughter, Ngākau Raiona. Her death changed everything - including bringing laser focus onto what is most important to me in this life. The more present I was with my grief, the more I understood who I am and what I stand for.
I’ve also known the grief of identity shifts, burnout, career changes, and big life pivots. Every ending brought me closer to purpose.
Now, I help others move through their own thresholds with more courage, clarity and compassion.
Living my values:
My business is endlessly inspired by the interconnected expansion of nature. So I have created my business in tune with nature’s value of reciprocity. Here are a few of the ways that I live my values:
• Having one 1-2-1 coaching slot that I gift to a NHS hero.
• Volunteering including as a Charity Trustee for Age UK Waltham Forest.
• Not gatekeeping and helping others to rise - bringing a generous heart as I facilitate connections and co-creations across industries.
• Having a commitment that those paying in monthly payment plans will never pay more than those with the privilege of savings.
• Committed to intersectional equity, inclusion, belonging and sustainability. Including as a foundation of my work as a Coach, Consultant & Facilitator, and behind the scenes of my business.
