Episode notes
ABOUT THIS EPISODE –
It was such a delight to chat to award winning lifestyle blogger April J Harris, also known as The 21st Century Housewife.
In this episode April shares her evolution from arriving in England as a confident 23 year old woman to an award winning, global blogger of 19 years. As we enter 2022, April is still evolving, doing what she loves, working together with other women to inspire and motivate.
“I'm very passionate about women supporting each other whether we are housewives, whether we have businesses, whether we have a career outside the home, we're all working together to make our families and our own experience the best it can be”
Of course, we talk about April’s confidence in this podcast episode. In particular, April shares how grief played a significant part in her journey of self discovery to be who she is today.
“My parents died very quickly, within sort of six weeks of each other. And I suddenly found myself completely adrift, I was still doing the blog, I was still doing everything else. But I didn't know who I was anymore. And it was, it was a really strange and challenging time for me. And I didn't know how to move forward. And I desperately needed someone to unlock my hidden confidence”
