Through these experiences Erin learned how and why they happened and developed strategies to overcoming and preventing anxiety, stress, worry and overwhelm, and that is what she teaches now. Erin mostly works with entrepreneurs and leaders, and will and wants to work with anyone that is seeking to live a purpose filled life now.
