I am a ridiculously practical person. I will always share helpful tips (with kindness) that you can apply this week to your imperfect life.
Community & Paid Subscriber options coming soon!
My name is April Edwards.
I’m a planner, an overachiever, and a recovering perfectionist with a deep love for learning, books, and personal growth. When I’m not teaching, writing, or folding an endless pile of laundry, you’ll probably find me baking sourdough or sneaking in a quiet moment with a good book.
I live in a farmhouse in the Arizona desert with my big, lively family. We’re all about embracing adventure and creativity—whether we’re exploring the Southwest, hosting game nights, or diving into new hobbies together. Life here is full, messy, and beautiful, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.
My Writing:
Over the past 5 years, writing has become an outlet for me. I share ideas, what I am learning, and mistakes I have made. It’s an open conversation. 💙
My Current Projects:
Subtle Resistance - practical tips to calm & resilience for your busy life
After over two decades of meeting others' expectations, I felt exhausted and defeated. Experiencing burnout multiple times, I learned to rebuild my life.
In my book, I share simple tips, emphasizing intentional choices that prioritize what truly matters. (What I needed in my 20’s.) It is a resource for those doing their best and still feeling overwhelmed.
I have already started the draft to my next book!
Intellectually Alive - Embrace Life-Long Learning & A Vibrant Adulthood (working title)
I am looking at the ideas of awesome adulting, travel, being intellectually alive, granny hobbies, reading, and life-long learning.
If you have any book recs I would appreciate your help! I am deep in the research and early writing phase. 😉
