April Lockhart

April Lockhart, born in 1995 on July 4th July, started taking piano and guitar lessons from seven years old. She was interested in songwriting was awakened. 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 the piano. Soon after she began taking excursions to write with her father in NY and LA. April also included additional topics in her track, Take my Hand. These topics included topics for her friends who dealt with things like peer pressure disabilities or even teen suicidal thinking. Lockhart is also gaining a growing following as a lifestyle influencer and works for popular clean beauty company Ilia. She was born without her left hand. It's an aspect of her identity, but that's not the entire story. The account on Instagram of Lockhart doesn't deny her handicap. However, it doesn't emphasize the issue. What message is it sending? We all have multiple aspects that our identities are complex and that we're much greater than the physical person we are. Lockhart through a video messages from his Nashville at home, claims that I don't wish for this to define me. I'm much far more than just my physical self. It doesn't impact my day-to-day life I do things normally, and I've discovered the best way for me to adapt the things. Because it's an integral part of me and something worthy of talking about. Lockhart has served as an excellent source of inspiration for her female friends with regards to acceptance of oneself. However, she admits that she has had periods when she felt uncomfortable with her appearance and wearing clothing with arms. She dresses according to her preferences and posts photos of herself dressed in outfits she chooses on social media. The key to self-love for her is that it's not an end place to go. This is true for everyone regardless of their degree of self-confidence. I believe having friends around you who really understand you and can see your feelings is crucial as they'll be the ones who will remind you what you worrying about?
