| Introduction | You can visit my website at www.erinpillman.com. I am a yogini, a writer, a singer, a lover of Truth, a networker, a traveler, a vessel of divine light... I live in the service of others. I enjoy overflowing abundance, creativity, flexibility, my beautiful supportive global community, traveling extensively &, balance between solitude & companionship, and between city & rural life. I have been traveling and living in different places since I graduated from high school in 2000, following the whispers of my heart, which I know to be the only source of true guidance for the highest manifestation of my soul's yearnings and purpose here on Earth. This entire journey has taught me, healed me, transformed me, and evolved me into who I am today: a strong, empowered and powerful young woman, dreaming a more and more beautiful world into Being. |
