Our ‘Building Boundaries Workshop' is not just about learning to say "no." It’s about understanding where your limits are, why they have been ignored and how to create boundaries that actually protect your energy, time and mental clarity.

These 8 eye-opening lessons from our boundaries workshop share what attendees really felt after Part 1 and how they’re making real changes in their lives.

1. “This felt like a life audit”

Most people think of boundaries as rules you set for other people, but in reality, the first step is evaluating yourself.

2. “I had no idea I was leaking this much energy”

Unnoticed boundary violations slowly drain your energy over time.
This workshop helped participants recognise where they were over-giving and how to set stronger limits to protect their time and emotional well-being.

3. “I liked that no one told me what to do”

Boundaries aren’t about following rules – they’re about understanding yourself first.
Self-awareness is key; once you recognise your patterns, you can create boundaries that actually work for you.

4. “This completely changed how I see boundaries”

Not having clear boundaries has just as much impact as setting them.
The ‘Boundary Threshold’ concept helped attendees see how they reacted to situations that tested their boundaries.

5. “I wasn’t expecting to enjoy this, but I did”

The workshop was unexpectedly engaging, making time fly by.
Practical exercises and real insights kept attendees fully involved from start to finish.

6. “I didn’t realise how emotional this would be”

Setting boundaries isn’t just about saying no – it’s about recognising your worth and reclaiming your space.
The hardest pushback often comes from those who benefited from your lack of boundaries.
The most unexpected but powerful takeaway is - this is about your relationship with yourself.

7. “Designed to make an impact”

It’s nice when the visuals don’t just support the content but create a lasting impression.

8. “I’m ready for Part 2”

Instead of a typical discussion on boundaries, this was real exercises, deep self-reflection, and unexpected insights.
This is what we call Deep Work, uncovering truths about your limits that you didn’t even realise were there.

You need to know why your reactions repeat, and how to shift them for good.

About

this workshop

This workshop is designed to help you build boundaries that actually work in real life, boundaries that stay strong, even when someone pushes against them or when life feels messy.

You will learn how to use our Boundary Builder to create clear and simple boundaries that protect the things that matter most: your future plans, your mental and emotional health, and your voice, so you feel heard and respected.

During this session, you will look closely at your daily life and the people you deal with most family, friends, colleagues and scan your boundaries. You will find out if they are helping you or hurting you and whether they support the life you are building and match the two-year vision you have for yourself.
