Anabelle Elya is the founder of The Digital Doula, where she builds done-for-you sales infrastructure for women coaches and service providers. She has built and managed sales teams generating $2M+ per month in cash collected and now helps women create sales systems their nervous systems can actually sustain. Her approach sits at the intersection of sales automation technology and nervous system awareness, helping business owners stop running on adrenaline and start operating from real infrastructure. Anabelle is a 1/3 Projector and mama to three incredible humans. She has been featured on multiple stages and works with clients across the coaching and service provider space.
Three weeks after the birth of her son, after a traumatic NICU stay, Anabelle walked across a graduation stage to receive her bachelor's degree. She went on to build and lead sales teams doing $2M+ per month in cash collected. On the outside, everything looked incredible. On the inside, she felt dread in her body every single second. That experience changed everything. She stopped teaching people to push through and started building systems their bodies could actually sustain. Today, through The Digital Doula, she builds done-for-you sales infrastructure and teaches her proprietary "nervous system safe selling" framework to women entrepreneurs who want revenue without the burnout. Her clients stop running their businesses on adrenaline and a prayer and start operating from a system that works even when they step away.
