Scared of boundaries… while simultaneously fantasising about running away to a small cabin where nobody can ask you for anything?

You're not alone!

Because for many women, life has stopped feeling spacious.

But you cannot build a spacious, peaceful life with open-door access to your energy.

So if your “line in the sand” is now basically a communal footpath…

Join me for:

The

Better Boundaries

Session 

What are they, how do you get them… and why they change everything.

 

This is a really practical, powerful session for women who are tired of over-functioning, over-giving, over-explaining, and silently carrying far too much.

Women don’t just need better time management.
We need better emotional protection.

Better guardrails.
Better permission to take up space in our own lives.

And boundaries are a huge part of that.

I need those boundaries!

Yes! I need boundaries!

Because silently resenting everyone is not actually a wellness strategy.

In this practical and eye-opening session, we’ll explore:

  • What boundaries actually are
    (and what they definitely are not) 
  • The different types of boundaries
    (yes, there are lots - and many are gentler than you think) 
  • Why women find boundaries so difficult (Hint: it's not you!)
  • The hidden beliefs and fears underneath boundary struggles
  • How to challenge the self-limiting beliefs making boundaries feel uncomfortable
  • Where the biggest friction points are in your life right now
  • How to apply boundaries practically, calmly, and clearly in real life
Sign me up for better boundries!

Is this for you?

This workshop is for midlife women who are:

 

 Overloaded

Your days are full but not always fulfilling.

 Overwhelmed

Your brain never stops; your body is exhausted.

 Over-responsible

You carry far too much of the emotional, invisible and practical load.

 Over-it

You know something has to change - you’re just not sure what or how.

 Ready for clarity

Not a makeover.
Not a transformation plan.
Just a way back to yourself.

 

Women who maybe don’t have time for journalling - but desperately need a way to check in with themselves.

Women who want 2026 to feel real, nourishing, grounded, and aligned.

Women who want to stop ghosting themselves.

If you want 2026 to feel different - calmer, clearer, more grounded - this session is your beginning.

 If the thought of saying “no” makes you instantly want to explain yourself for 45 minutes… this session is for you.

Because boundaries are not selfish, or aggressive or controlling.

They're not punishments, or walls - and they are definitely not “being difficult”

Boundaries are clarity.

They are emotional breathing space, self-respect, and protection for your time and energy.

They mean healthier relationships, less resentment and more honesty

They are the bold, beautiful bastions of your emotional and physical space.

And when you finally understand them properly?

Everything changes.

 

Are you setting boundaries… or just making deeply hopeful suggestions?

 

✔️ You say yes when you mean no

✔️ You instantly feel guilty putting yourself first

✔️ You struggle to ask for help or support

✔️ You avoid difficult conversations

✔️ You constantly over-explain yourself

✔️ You feel emotionally crowded by everyone else’s needs

✔️ You resent people while still doing the thing anyway

✔️ You feel like your life has no space in it anymore

✔️ You know something needs to change at home, work, or in your relationships

✔️ You're absolutely bloody exhausted from carrying the mental and emotional load of everything

Pour a glass of bubbles, kombucha or your favourite tea.

Kick off your shoes.
And give yourself an hour that is entirely about you.

Women are often conditioned to believe:

  • good women cope
  • good women don’t upset people
  • good women are endlessly available
  • good women keep the peace
  • good women just “get on with it”

All that does is make us "good" at being busy.

Which is exactly why so many of us feel so overwhelmed, resentful, emotionally reactive, disconnected from ourselves, and quietly furious half the time!!

So, if you’ve ever said “It’s grand” while internally plotting everyone’s disappearance… welcome.

This session will help you:

  • stop abandoning yourself
  • reduce resentment and emotional overload
  • communicate more clearly and calmly
  • reconnect with your own needs and instincts
  • feel less reactive and more emotionally steady
  • create more space, clarity, and peace in your life

And most importantly?

You’ll leave with at least ONE boundary you feel ready and excited to put into place immediately.

Not dreading.
Not apologising for.
Actually ready for.

Because this isn’t about becoming less kind.

It’s about becoming less depleted.

Better boundaries...

Terrifying in theory.

Life-changing in practice.

Hi, I’m Alana Kirk- midlifer, brain untangler, and bullshit-cutter-through-er.

As a coach, author and speaker, I’ve helped hundreds of women hit pause on their chaos, figure out what they really want, and go after it with calm, clarity, and courage.

I get the overwhelm, the over-responsibility, and the pressure to keep it all together.  I’ve singled parented, double-jobbed and triple buggied. I’ve been caught in the sandwich years of caring for parents and young children.  I’ve festered in resentment and flourished in my ambitions.

And I know how important it is to pause amid the mayhem, take stock at the crossroads and check in to get back on track.

And that can be really hard. Women today lead multi-layered, multi-pressured, multi-roled lives…. And the only way to thrive is to clear away the external noise and figure out your internal voice and choices amid the mayhem.

And boundaries. Big, bold, beautiful boundaries! 

Yes! I want some better boundaries!
