DUE TO HER UNCONVENTIONAL LIFE, APRIL IS PERFECTLY POSITIONED TO CONSULT WOMEN TO DESIGN, LAUNCH AND SCALE THEIR BUSINESS FOR PURPOSE, PROFIT AND LIFESTYLE RESULTS
STARTING BAREFOOT
I learned at young age to create the reality I wanted. My parents were entrepreneurs and designed our lifestyle.
When my stepdad wanted to play more beach volleyball, we opened the first volleyball store in Santa Barbara
When we wanted to travel, we made oak beach chairs and sold them at craft shows
And when we wanted to surf, we opened surf shops in California and Hawaii where I surfed the best waves and skied the best mountains.
I learned young to plan and launch businesses, skimp pennies, turn ideas into companies, serve customers, and scale companies for lifestyle freedom.
All my friends were jealous when my mom pulled up in the jeep to bust us out of school because the waves were up.
I was totally livin' the dream,
ALONE AT 13
And then it was gone... My mom left and I moved out on my own at age 13. I quickly learned what it means when "He gives and takes away".
I was determined to rebuild the lifestyle I once had. I got my high school diploma early while living off TopRamen and drinking coffee. I think this is why I'm only 5'1"
While other kids were going to college, I packed my backpack, grabbed my surfboard, and headed to Costa Rica Cc 1994
I waited tables and gave free business coaching to anyone who asked
At 20 I enrolled in college for meteorology to predict swells for surfers - and dropped out as soon as I realized I'd rather be surfing the waves than siting in a dark office
At 21 I was hired for my first business consulting project. I had no idea what I was doing, but I quickly saw how my unorthodox business experience benefited others. By 26, I had consulted over 100 companies.
SERIOUSLY LADIES?
I married a man who liked my kind of crazy, and became mom to three awesome boys.
But my way of giving birth seemed to draw unsolicited advice from the woodwork. This toked my war-cry for creating the "parent coaching industry" = empowering the individual choices of mothers.
Two years later I had offices in 7 states, an international business consulting firm, the first maternity concierge programs in corporations and hospitals, partnerships with huge brands, and women all over the world taking our online courses to launch their own businesses. Cc. 2008
This company, Baby Planner Inc.™ today runs on autopilot and leads the industry in business growth for companies who market to new and expecting families.
By 2012 I had coached over two thousand women to launch and scale their business online.
SUPER SCARY
In 2011 I founded my nonprofit after learning of toxic exposures from oil and gas fracking operations near my home. A rude awakening for this mineral-rights owning, girl from a republican family.
Despite threats against my family and being scared to death, I testified; standing up to big oil and spear-heading the movement to ban fracking near homes.
My work was highlighted in Patagonia's monthly magazine. Natalie Merchant and Jakob Dylan held benefit concerts to fund it, and I was featured in multiple documentaries. In 2012, actor Mark Ruffalo wrote an article about my story.
Meanwhile, my business coaching courses were on autopilot and I was virtually launching entrepreneurs around the world.
In 2013, The SweetLife Company™ was born - and the Lifestyle Entrepreneur Roadmap™ was released: My 5-step process to launch and scale an online lifestyle business.
TODAY
April works with women all over the world, who want to design, launch and scale their business online.
Her mission is to inspire and equip you to design your life through entrepreneurship.
All of our coaching, programs, podcast and masterminds deliver serious results for women entrepreneurs who want to do big things for their life and business, and develop good services that contribute to the world.
