Alena Turley

Alena helps high achievers and over-extended people break free from what's holding them back — stress, tension, or a life that feels too small — so they can step into greater ease, vitality, and possibility with somatic practices. She is living proof that it is possible to experience a healthy, soulful, enriching life after adversity with the right support. Despite a rocky start to adult life she trained and worked across a diverse range of industries — and left a mark in each one. From public relations to filmmaking, residential construction to permaculture design, she holds qualifications in many disciplines, including education, somatic therapies, and a Black Belt in Hapkido. After wandering for years — navigating traumas big and small — Alena realised her knack for sensing what people need to reconnect with so they can finally heal what's been holding them back. Since 2009, Alena has been writing, researching, and founding supportive online communities in the tens of thousands. In 2020 she began guiding and supporting high achievers and over-extended givers with her multidisciplinary programs, and inspiring many with her podcast, Unboxable. Alena is driven to foster interdependence in a disconnected world, so people can unearth their hidden talents and unleash them in the most impactful way.
