Navigating two worlds
( 5 Articles )
 Elizabeth Stephens (now Elizabeth Jewell) is a woman who knows what she wants, and isn’t afraid to go for it. Having no previous publishing experience, she sold the family home in 1989 in order to finance and establish LivingNow magazine, originally titled ‘Whole Person’. 1996 saw the magazine move into a different format, not only undergoing a name change to LivingNow, but also making the magazine free of charge (and hence losing its gloss) – thus ensuring the insightful stories and information inside were easily accessible to a wider audience.
Elizabeth’s determined nature has undoubtedly secured LivingNow’s place as one of the strongest forces in this niche, and has taken holistic living out into the mainstream and the 21st Century. The magazine currently has around a quarter of a million regular readers throughout the east coast of Australia and in Western Australia (based on a surveyed 2.8 readers per copy circulated).
Her main strengths have been noted to be that she pushes on regardless of her fears and that she employs passion, determination and the will to serve.
She is the author of two published books: ‘The Australian family vegetarian cookbook’ (Hyland House, 1986), and ‘Seven angels helped me…they’ll help you too’ (Living NOW Publishing, 2004).
Elizabeth was born in Adelaide, South Australia, and has lived in Melbourne for most of her life. She is the proud mother of three children and the grandmother of two.
