April Lockhart
April Lockhart (born July 4 in 1995) began her musical journey as a 7th grader in which she began guitar and piano lessons. At the age of 12 April composed her first single Different. The singer spent much of her time at 14 composing songs and experimenting with music. In the following months, April started taking trips in NY and LA with her Dad to help them compose songs. April included other subjects in her hit song"Take my Hand. These topics included topics for her friends who dealt issues like peer pressure, issues or even teenage suicide thinking. Lockhart also enjoys an increasing following as a lifestyle influencer and works for popular brand of clean and natural beauty Ilia. As a woman born with no left hand, the woman is an important part of her. It's however not the only thing she has to tell. Lockhart acknowledges her handicap on Instagram, but she doesn't make it the focus of it. The message? It's important to keep in mind that everyone has many faces, our identities are diverse and we are much more than our bodies. I don't want that to define me I don't wish to become a disability influencer where that's all I discuss because there are many different aspects to me Lockhart speaks via video from her house in Nashville. The issue doesn't affect my everyday life. I conduct the same way as I always do and have developed different ways of adapting. Because it's part of who I am, it's something that's worth talking about. Self-acceptance can be a marathon for a lifetime however Lockhart truly inspires me on that front. Still, she admits that she went through a few phases regarding her appearance, feeling uncomfortable in certain situations wearing outfits that showcased the arms of her. She now wears any outfit she likes and uploads photos on Facebook with pride. Self-love, according to her, is a process. "I do not think that you'll ever get in that place," she said. It's a fact that I see common to everyone regardless of what their insecurity is. The people around you with who truly know you and see into your heart are the ones you should be relying on who can remind you of the things you're concerned about.
