A heretically human approach to business — for those ready to lead with heart, honor their design, and define success on their own terms.

If being you burns the bridge, the bridge was fake.
If being you empties the room, those people were props.
Your real brand starts where pretending ends.
Let the wrong things fall away.
The Heretical Heart™

I don't know about you, but so many times I've been taught about how to manifest, it always starts with...
You have to work on your worthiness to be able to receive.
I'm going to call bu****it on this.
You are worthy.
Period.
And any time we bring attention here when trying to draw more into our lives that we desire, we focus on feelings of unworthiness, which feels like blame.
..if you only believed you were worthy...
..if you only believed that you'd eradicated any self-doubt that you have...
No.
Just. No.
(Feelings) of worthiness can be reinforced when we begin receiving the things we manifest that are in alignment but our worthiness itself never changes.
Manifestation in my heretical opinion must be build in emotional and identity coherence.

Being a heart led entrepreneur, it can feel like business wasn't build for you.
You just want to do the work, but every time you turn around, someone is telling you that you have to chase the current algorithm trend, ads, no ads, niche down, run a group, no 1:1 is the way to go.
You feel like you have whiplash from all the contradictory advice.
And you've tried it.
And all it's done is left you exhausted.
Disconnected.
And feeling like maybe it'd be easier to just find a job working for someone else.
But every time you think of going back to a 9-5, your soul dies a little.
Because you love what you do, and you really do want the freedom that working for yourself allows.
The Heretical Heart™ doesn't tell you how to run your business.
It teaches you how to realign with yourself and build a business that fits your energy and allows you the freedom you desire.
In a world that worships urgency, certainty, and performance — remaining soft (with clear boundaries) is the most heretical act of all.

I spent a long time trying to be easier to love (some 5th line wounds there).
Quieter. More agreeable. More productive. More digestible.
But over time, I realized that I didn't recognize myself anymore.
And the business that I had built wasn't even what I wanted. It was leaving me on the edge of burnout and wanting to burn it down and pick a new niche every couple of months - as if that would fix things.
I was creating (manifesting) from a place of - will this make them happy? Is this what they want? What if I bend this way? Or make myself smaller? Louder? More palatable?
And yet, it didn't manifest in anything more than...more lessons.
I learned over time that being anyone other than myself is exhausting.
And ironically, my Human Design Incarnation Cross is the Left Angle Cross of Masks....I am literally here to help you also remove the masks you've been wearing that aren't you.
To drop further into the truth of who you are, and show up unapologetically, manifesting what is aligned for you. Not the world around you.

You don’t manifest what you say you want.
You manifest what you stay with yourself through.
If you collapse your boundaries to be chosen
If you silence your needs to avoid conflict
If you override your emotional truth to be pleasing
If you perform confidence you don’t actually feel
Your system reads that as:
“I am not safe to be who I am.”
And your magnet turns off.
Manifestation is not about becoming more.
It’s about no longer leaving yourself.
The report I just released shows you how your Human Design expresses emotional truth + identity — so you can come back to yourself, and your life can meet you again.

You will lose things doing it your way.
People. Comfort. Control.
But if you keep doing it their way, you'll lose yourself.
This is your permission to let things fall away.
They're not yours if you have to shrink to keep them.

The messy parts of your journey? That’s where the power is.
Brands built on perfection crumble.
Brands built on truth roar louder.
If your healing is loud, jagged, and hard to look at — good.
You’re building something real.

You don’t owe everyone your why.
You don’t need their agreement before trusting yourself.
Your clarity is enough.
Your no is sacred.
Your yes is yours.
⠀
Let this be the season you stop translating your truth for other people’s comfort.

You didn’t start a business to be a good student.
You started it because you wanted freedom and to carve your own path.
The strategy you’re waiting to be “ready” for?
It’s a trap dressed as a blueprint.
Burn the rulebook. Write your own.
It’s the only one that’ll actually work.

Weird is welcome here.
You don’t have to flatten your edges or tone it down.
You get to be loud, strange, magical, awkward, wise — and still be taken seriously.
⠀
Being fully yourself is the strategy.

You don’t owe everyone your why. Stop toning down your spicy edges to try and make everyone comfy.
It's like that Ricky Nelson song...🎶..."you can't please everyone, so you got to please yourself...🎶"
You don’t need their agreement before trusting yourself.
Your clarity is enough.
Your no is sacred.
Your yes is yours.
⠀
Let this be the season you stop translating your truth for other people’s comfort.

I'm Aypril – Empowered Mindset Intuitive Eating™ Coach, Life Coach, Entrepreneur, Nutritional Therapy Practitioner, home-schooling mom, wife, daughter, and I am passionate about helping all women create an empowered life around food and health.
I love chai, the color yellow, and curiosity. I also can't resist personality tests like Meyers Briggs (INFP-A), horoscopes (Leo), the Four Tendencies (Rebel), and my favorite, Human Design (5-2 Projector).
What I do.
After working with hundreds of women over the last six years in my Holistic Nutritional Therapy practice, I found that the women who were the most successful in sustaining their goals were the ones who shifted their mindset around any way of eating rather than just changing what was on their plate.
Now I help women learn a way of intuitive eating that is unique to them and their needs. We challenge sometimes long-held beliefs around health and wellness that may not be helpful anymore and let them go when they aren't working for us anymore. Wherever in your journey you are, life coaching can help, whether you want to get stronger, become more energetic, lose a few pounds, or find acceptance of a diagnosis.
Why I do it.
Food is wrapped up in so many layers of emotion, connection, cravings, and habits that it takes more than a "diet" to support sustainable changes. When you can connect how you want to feel in your body with your actions and the foods you eat, you can become empowered to make the choices that leave you feeling good about yourself and your body. I want that for all women.
