Hi, I’m Aypril (she/her).
Who Am I?
I am a mom, wife and an insatiably curious person who loves helping people unlock their potential, live authentically, and embrace the parts of themselves they’ve been criticized for in the past or afraid to show. I love working with people who are different, live life on their own terms (or who want to!), and are willing to explore their inner landscape to evolve from where they are to where they want to be.
How am I qualified to help you?
I’m an ICF certified Life and Grief Coach, Human Design Specialist, Death Doula, and Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioner with over a decade of experience working with clients in private practice. I’m also a published author of two Human Design books.
Why do I do this work?
I don’t want you to get to the end of your life and realize that you compromised yourself for everyone else and fear dying because you haven’t truly lived or have unfinished business.
And the truth is, in my early thirties (around my Saturn return, of course), I found myself burned out, people-pleasing, and wondering who the hell I was, wishing someone could help me find my way back to myself. I’d lost my way and didn’t take the time to grieve the shift from being single to married to a mom (yes, there can be grief in great things in life, too), and I tried to keep up with how I thought I was supposed to be as I took on these new roles rather than continuing to be my unique, quirky, authentic self. Eventually, over time, I built my resources to find myself and my direction again, and it’s become my life’s work to help you find your way back to yourself. Human Design was a huge piece of the puzzle that continues to unlock my potential, and I love helping clients use it to unlock theirs, too!
I’ve coached hundreds of clients in thousands of sessions, guiding them back to themselves, and I bring my personal and professional experience together to be the perfect guide to support you in your journey to stop doing for the sake of doing and start connecting to your truth and living your life with purpose.
I believe the only time you waste is the time you spend wishing you did something different and continue to do the same thing. What hasn’t worked is not a waste. It’s a lesson.
Check out my Human Design parenting books.
These books are great for parents navigating how to raise their children, how to be a good parent, and even how to support their relationship with their parents and do inner child work.
“Aypril has such an empathetic and kind way of coaching! She has skillfully coached me through rough patches as well as sessions where I was working on personal growth. I have learned a lot about myself and I’ve made some powerful shifts in my life/work balance since I began working with her. I am so grateful that I found such a supportive coach to help me along my path!”
