“Hello! How are you? How are you feeling today? I am Elena Bilbao, founder of Bilbao Coaching (yes, hence the name of this project). Naming this project after my last name is a way of honoring my own tree and all my ancestors, thanks to whom I am here for you today and who I am today.
My path has not been littered with roses, or rather it has been, but roses also have their thorns and are part of this dual reality we inhabit. That’s why my own personal, spiritual, and professional journey can help me understand and empathize with yours. No one will ever be able to walk the path of another being, but we can accompany each other, support each other, and encourage each other, and that’s why I’m here. To give you a little light and encouragement, to laugh, to make your tears less bitter, to build, conceive, and plan a much better future with you and for you. Let’s put your dreams on a calendar and turn them into goals. And if the end of the world comes, what do you want me to say… Let it catch us dancing, or at least clapping! 😉
If you’d like to know a little more about me both professionally and educationally, here’s more about me:
I am passionate about communication and everything related to strategy and entrepreneurship. I graduated in Advertising and Public Relations at the University of the Basque Country in 2009. After several years working for others in various locations (Catalonia, the Basque Country, Norway, etc.), more than 10 years ago I decided to start my own digital marketing agency.
Back then, it was an unknown business concept, and social media didn’t even include ads… Not many people believed in my “crazy” idea of starting the agency. A lot has changed since then, and I’ve never stopped learning about the industry, the business, and my own clients and the challenges they face daily. I thoroughly enjoy working with entrepreneurs, SMEs, and freelancers, helping them grow their projects and businesses and improve their lives. This has also motivated me to obtain a degree in Social Coaching from Nebrija University.
I feel that the professional part is vital in people’s lives. It is very important that we feel fulfilled and in tune with what we do and our lifestyle. That’s why it’s very important for me to advise from a HUMAN point of view.
My concerns do not end here, in what is becoming the more material “Matrix” world of business. I have always been very curious about artistic subjects, traveling and learning about other cultures, and spirituality. I devour books constantly and I have also liked to write since a very early age. That’s why I’ve always asked myself many existential questions, which have inevitably led me to find many answers. I can’t conceive of life outside of spirituality, since we are the spirit itself having a human experience. This has led me to practice yoga and meditation, and to train in subjects as diverse as mediumship, Reiki, the Akashic Records, and so on. These are tools that, although at first glance they may seem far removed from “pure business,” everything in this world is connected, and they are very useful tools that add great value to coaching sessions, whether aimed at entrepreneurs, businesses, or individuals. We can speak Spanish, English, and Basque, and I offer both online and in-person sessions. If you want to know more, write to me!
I also collaborate with others to offer a more comprehensive service.
I have a network of like-minded professionals that allows me to help people in a holistic way: addressing everything from the physical to the mental and energetic. Therefore, behind the scenes I work with experts in nutrition, detox, sports and personalized sports plans, retreats, massages and bioenergetic therapies, regressive therapy, Reiki, Akashic Records, etc. Depending on your particular case and if necessary, we can establish a comprehensive approach plan from different areas to help you achieve your best version. We want you to feel healthy, full of positive energy, excited about life and your projects. We want you to connect with yourself, to get to know yourself a little better every day, and to love yourself more and more. We also want you to connect with like-minded people so you can move forward on your path to holistic growth. You are not alone. There are many people willing to help and empower you who have been in a similar situation to you and can therefore understand and support you. Go ahead and write to us!
