April Lockhart

April Lockhart born 4 July 1995. She started with guitar and piano in seventh grade. This sparked her interest. At the age of 12 April came up with her first original song Different. When she was 14, April devoted much of her time writing and practicing songs. After that, she started taking trips to write with father, who lived in NY and LA. April included other subjects in her song"Take my Hand. These topics were for friends that dealt issues like peer pressure, disabilities or even teen suicidal ideas. Lockhart has her own fan base and works as a lifestyle blogger at the popular Ilia the Clean Beauty brand. She was born without her left hand. It's part of who she is--but it's hardly her whole story. Lockhart's Twitter profile does not shy away from her status as disabled, but neither does it focus on it. What message is it trying to convey? The message? We have many different aspects, that our physical and identity selves are not all that they seem. Lockhart said via video that she does not want to be defined solely by her physical disability. She doesn't wish to become an advocate for disabled people who only talks about that. There are a variety of aspects to Lockhart. It doesn't impact my everyday life. I do the things I normally would and I've adapted to the limitations of my disability. However, it's a component of me, so I believe it's important to talk about. Lockhart is a great example of how to stay striving to be self-accepting. She admits that she's been through periods of being uncomfortable with her body and sometimes feeling insecure to wear particular types of clothes that showed off her arms. She wears whatever she wants and proudly posts pictures of herself in the outfits she wears on social platforms. What makes self-love so appealing to her is that it's not a goal. It's a long journey. I'm not sure you'll ever get there. It is essential to be around those who are able to know your.
