Jenn has transitioned out of corporate jobs to be a solopreneur a couple times over. She ran four marathons and many half marathons. She created a life abroad, traveled to 50+ countries, and speaks several languages. And, yes, she slow-walked across Asia and Europe in 3.5 years.
In a world that is on constant hyperdrive, we lose ourselves in the routine of everyday life and give up our audacious goals and ability to follow through with the integrity to make them real. We get stuck in fear and exhaust ourselves with old models of courage.
Jenn guides perspective-shifting conversations and holds space for releasing the emotional heaviness we carry when fear constrains us. Through what she calls creativity intervals of intuitive movement, body-calming meditation, and mindful writing, Jenn helps people release the fear, anger, and worry that keeps them in a rut and reignites the awe and curiosity that makes us all feel fierce, fun, and fantastic.
Again,....deep gratitude dear Jenn.
Your sparkly essence and earnest desire to
learn and share with others, comes through
loud and clear....keep doing that!!!

Celine, mindfulness, embodiment, and movement mentor
On her 25th birthday, Jenn Baljko left New Jersey, drove across the United States, and completely started over from scratch in the San Francisco Bay Area.
At 31 years old, after a heart-breaking divorce, she put everything she owned in storage, sold her car, quit her job as a senior editor at a Silicon Valley magazine, and went on her first solo, six-month backpacking trip around Europe. She serendipitously met Lluís on that trip in the middle of a Barcelona square packed with more than 10,000 people during the city’s festival.
In 2006, she pivoted again, and landed in Barcelona, choosing to build a life with Lluís and developing the cultural acumen she needed to backpack through the world with him and by herself. She practice the digital nomad lifestyle before we had those words to describe this now-popular trend.
On her 44th birthday, in 2016, Jenn and Lluís walked out of Bangkok, Thailand and started their long foot journey home, crossing 21 nation states to reach Barcelona, Catalonia. A documentary about this amazing adventure was featured at eight international film festivals and is making its way to broader audiences globally.
During the pandemic, which occurred eight months after finishing the walk, Jenn began her newest entrepreneurial endeavor, founding Always On My Way as a way to help women make midlife magical. She also mentors aspiring writers who want to write memoirs, produced three global online summits, led a collaborative book project in 2023, and is publishing again in June 2024.
