About me, Ena Bautista

As a new coach who entered the coaching industry, having previously worked as a Virtual Assistant, I had a big desire to help others more than I was able to do as a VA.

My love for people, the appreciation for the power of coaching, and the big purpose of helping others overcome challenges like mine, kept driving me forward.

There were times I considered throwing in the towel as social media highlight reels that we had grown to accept as reality, were NOT the reality I was experiencing at times.

About me, Ena Bautista

As a new coach who entered the coaching industry, having previously worked as a Virtual Assistant, I had a big desire to help others more than I was able to do as a VA.

My love for people, the appreciation for the power of coaching, and the big purpose of helping others overcome challenges like mine, kept driving me forward.

There were times I considered throwing in the towel as social media highlight reels that we had grown to accept as reality, were NOT the reality I was experiencing at times.

The picture perfect online business that only shared a limited perspective and trust in the experts that I believed knew more than me, made for the perfect breeding ground for doubt and insecurities.

I questioned my expertise and value, walked the tightrope on the edges of burnout multiple times, and wondered what was “wrong” with me.

Running a business following the neurotypical approach didn’t work for me as a neurodivergent entrepreneur. 😩

It took me years of soul-searching, stripping of identities I have taken on (some starting in childhood), unlearning and learning to get here where I am now – grounded and anchored in my sovereignty, self-trust and love and knowing myself really well.

The journey felt very lonely at times, as there were only a few people who I could turn to for support as I went through it, and even they didn’t have the answers I was looking for.

Which is why I am so passionate to support you and guide you as you start your journey of self-discovery and coming back to self.

And because I’ve been working with clients (and on myself) over the past 8 years, relentlessly working through all of my discomfort and inner growth,  I’ve put all of my experience, knowledge, certifications, learnings, AND unlearnings, into setting up this website program.  To be able to support and guide you as you start this journey yourself, to help you navigate through all that you will bring for resolution. So you can be supported, held, and kept on the course rather than tap in the dark by yourself.

NOW FOR THE MORE FUN STUFF! 

1 🪂 Even as someone who is incredibly scared of heights, I wanted to challenge myself so I went paragliding and absolutely loved it. That was my jumpstart into my self-development journey!

2 🎸I have a very varied music taste and can listen to almost anything, so one day you’ll hear me blasting SOAD and Metallica, the next day NSYNC, BSB or 50 Cent

3 📑I am a connoisseur of knowledge – I absolutely love learning new skills, business and non business related –

(I taught myself how to build websites on multiple platforms and various tech skills for my VA business. I learned to garden in lockdown, I sew, knit, crochet, cut hair, DIY, create art with resin and so, so much more.) Not to brag, but I am also quite good at it. 😃

4 🎶I can remember song lyrics from 10-20 years ago, but often forget to eat during the day and sometimes can’t remember what I had for lunch the day before 😅

5 🖤My favourite colour is black. 95% of my clothes are black and when I’m picking clothes to go out it usually sounds something like: “Which black dress am I going to wear today?” 😅
