Lillian is also the author of Fill Your Soul – The Feminine Way, a book written to awaken your feminine spirit and elevate your spiritual journey. Join us to learn more about Lillian, and how you can be a part of our upcoming Women’s Conference on Saturday, May 7th, 2022 at the Harbor Center in Slidell, Louisiana. This event has been designed to refresh, restore, and renew the woman’s soul! We are all looking forward to being able to be with each other in person again, following the long, dark night of our Covid lockdowns and restrictions.
