In this episode, we explore the difference between mindfulness and presence—and how true presence opens the space for inner wisdom to be heard. Learn how letting go of striving and simply arriving in the moment can reveal the quiet guidance that’s always within you.

We’ll reflect on practical ways to cultivate presence in everyday life, and leave you with a gentle question to carry with you: As I move through my day, what changes when I choose presence over productivity—even for a few breaths?

On today’s episode of the Joyful Journey Podcast, I sit down with creative transformation coach, vibrational healer, and award-winning musician Jenny Elinora to explore how creativity becomes a pathway to healing, wholeness, and joyful living. Jenny shares her powerful story of reclaiming her voice after years of self-doubt and cultural conditioning, and how that awakening inspired her to help women in midlife rediscover their own creative fire. We talk about the role of play in becoming whole, the patterns that signal “creative betrayal,” and how simple daily practices can reconnect us to our aliveness. If you’ve ever felt the tug of an unlived creative dream—or sensed that there’s more of you waiting to be expressed—this heartfelt, wisdom-filled conversation will speak directly to your soul.

About Jenny Elinora

Jenny Elinora is a creative mentor, vibrational healing practitioner, and award-winning musician who guides women in midlife to reconnect with their authentic voice and rekindle their creative spark. Drawing on years of performing, deep inner work, and her own journey of reclaiming self-expression, Jenny supports women in moving beyond perfectionism and fear so they can create from a place of joy, curiosity, and freedom. She believes creativity is both a path to wholeness and a powerful tool for awakening what’s been dormant within. Whether someone feels called to sing, write, launch a passion project, or simply live with more presence and vitality, Jenny helps them return to their inner wisdom and step boldly—playfully—into the life they’re meant to live.

In this short episode, I explore what it really means to return to presence. I share a recent synchronicity, along with a candid conversation from my spiritual writing practice, where I was reminded—more than once—to slow down, pay attention, and come back to the moment. If you’ve been feeling distracted or caught up in the “what ifs,” this gentle reminder may be exactly what you need too. Join me as I revisit the wisdom of being here, now, and reconnecting with the quiet guidance of the soul.
