In this inspiring episode of ''Aging With Purpose and Passion", Jenny Leigh Hodgins takes us on a transformative journey of healing and self-discovery through creativity. Growing up in a dysfunctional family, Jenny found refuge in music at a young age, using the piano as her emotional sanctuary. What began as a source of comfort became her life’s passion and career, leading her to become a composer, teacher, and creative empowerment coach.

After discovering Buddhism in her twenties, Jenny grounded her life in its principles, helping her navigate life's challenges with a fresh perspective. This spiritual foundation guided her through years of personal growth, including her time in Japan, where she recorded music and immersed herself in a different culture.

Returning to America, Jenny faced one of her toughest challenges yet—becoming a full-time caregiver for her mother. This chapter in her life led her to redefine her boundaries, shedding lifelong patterns of overextension. It also sparked her transition from teaching music to launching an online creative coaching business. Now, Jenny helps others overcome creative blocks, rediscover their authentic voice, and find purpose through self-expression.

Jenny’s message is clear: 'Creativity is not just a hobby—it’s a path to healing, purpose, and fulfillment'. Tune in to hear how embracing your creative potential can transform your life, no matter where you are in your journey.

Ready to tap into your own creative power to help you break through blocks and rediscover your purpose? You've arrived at the right place.
