Morphology
The meaning is directly and transparently derived from combining 'enjoy' (to find pleasurable) with 'journey' (a trip or process), so a B1 learner who knows the constituents will readily infer it means taking pleasure in the trip or process. The metaphorical extension to 'life as a journey' is common across languages but still follows the same compositional logic, reinforcing its transparency.
Etymology
Enjoy the journey comes from a simple travel image: imagine a long trip or journey where you notice the views, people, and small moments along the road instead of only thinking about the final place. So, the phrase now means 'enjoy the process' and not just the 'end result'.
