Alison Fraser Heisler

Alison spent 20 years as a sales leader and strategic deal-maker in media and entertainment, supporting legacy brands like Fast Company, The Atlantic, and Vanity Fair through print-to-digital transformation while developing high-value partnerships with digital natives including Google and Facebook. That commercial background gives her an unusually grounded understanding of what it means to navigate the next disruptor — AI — including revenue pressure, growth complexity, and what it takes to perform in high-stakes environments.

She has been an Executive Coach and Trainer at Talentism since 2018, working with senior executives and managers at startups through digital blue-chips. She is also a Coach Trainer for Talentism's Clarity Compass Program — supporting coaches in learning Talentism's IP and coaching methodology. She brings a certification in applied positive psychology, a mindfulness practice, and over 15 years of yoga instruction to a coaching style that creates psychological safety and helps clients move from talking about the thing to doing it.
