April Lockhart
April Lockhart born 4 July 1995. She started piano and guitar lessons in seventh grade. This sparked her interest. April Lockhart penned her first song"Different" when she was twelve years old. The year she turned 14 was when she spent a lot of time in making song lyrics and working on her music. She started writing songs along with her dad at home in NY and LA shortly after. The month also saw her include different topics related to some of her peers who are dealing in the area of bullying by peers and teenage suicide as depicted in the song"Take" my Hand. Lockhart is a well-known lifestyle blogger and working in partnerships with brands that are clean and healthy like Ilia, has built a large following. Lockhart was born with no left hand, and it's part of her story, but that's not the entire story. The profile of Lockhart on Instagram does not conceal her handicap, but it doesn't concentrate solely on her disability. What message does it convey? that we are all a part of a multitude that our identities are complex and that we are more than our physical selves. Lockhart said via video that she didn't want to be defined by her handicap. She does not want to be a disability advocate who only talks about disability. There are a variety of aspects to Lockhart. And it doesn't affect my everyday life. I go about everything normally and I've found the best way for me to adapt the things. However, it's a component of me and I feel that it's crucial to speak about. Self-acceptance is a long marathon but Lockhart is a true inspiration for this aspect. Still, she acknowledges going through phases of being uncomfortable with her physique and being uncomfortable in certain clothes which showed her arms. She dresses according to her preferences and proudly posts pictures of herself wearing the clothes she wears on social platforms. The self-love she talks about is a journey. It's hard to say if you'll ever reach the final stage. This is, however, typical for people that is prone to doubts. It's essential to have those that know and can relate to you. They will be the ones who ask you: What do you worry about?
