About Me
I've lived the transformation I now coach. My clients are female leaders at a crossroads, succeeding visibly on the outside while privately struggling to sustain how they lead and live. After years of over-functioning cost me my own clarity and confidence, I rebuilt both, and that experience is why I recognise it quickly when a client brings me a story about themselves that's no longer true.
My work is ontological coaching combined with emotional intelligence training: I help clients see the self-narrative quietly driving their choices, so change happens at the level of identity, not just behaviour. Using assessments alongside somatic and centering practice, I help clients clarify their values, character and career strengths, weaknesses and preferences, and act from authentic confidence rather than proving their worth through performance. Founders, corporate leaders and managers navigating career pivots leave with clearer direction, momentum, and a leadership presence that sustains performance, wellbeing and satisfaction as complexity grows.
Before coaching, I spent 5+ years as CMO of MAA Group Berhad, a publicly listed conglomerate in Malaysia spanning 15+ companies across hospitality, financial services and healthcare. I also hold board trustee roles with a charity supporting underprivileged and orphaned children, and an international school, reflecting what I care about most: helping leaders create impact within and beyond themselves.
I'm an ICF Associate Certified Coach and Newfield-certified Ontological Coach, with 230+ hours across 60 clients internationally, including women's group coaching and a female empowerment workshop. Clients consistently describe feeling deeply seen and never judged, with their own agency central to the work, letting them speak openly and lead in a way that's genuinely their own.
If you're a leader at a crossroads ready to lead with more clarity and less overwhelm, I'd love to hear from you.
Reviews
Where do I even begin? Elana helped me tremendously during a rather tumultuous period of my life when I was navigating multiple changes across almost every area. From our very first session, she helped me uncover where I was feeling stuck and offered perspectives that allowed me to reframe situations and approach them differently. One of the biggest shifts that came from our work together was recognising that I had been carrying a narrative about myself that was, in many ways, one of the biggest barriers to my own growth and progress. Becoming aware of that gave me the courage to face challenges head-on rather than continuing to lean into the avoidance patterns I had fallen into. Ive also had the privilege of joining her group coaching sessions, a space where women can come together to share their stories, struggles, and aspirations while building meaningful connections and support for one another. Elana is a leader in her own right, full of grace, compassion, and lightness. She has a remarkable ability to listen deeply, making those around her feel seen, supported, and free from judgement. Im incredibly grateful for the role she has played in my journey and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for guidance, support, and meaningful personal growth.
