Fire Nation. The countdown has commenced. Jolly Doom is here and I am fired up to bring you our featured guest today April McClain.

April are you prepared to ignite you have no idea. Yes. April has lived a lot of life in a little time from abusive home to foster care being pregnant at 15 to sleeping in a car.

She's learned a few things about perseverance. Both her brick and mortar studio in online brand are dedicated to spreading hope and celebrating transparency.

April say what's up to fire nation and share what's going on in your world right now.

I also have an online brand where I speak and write and pontificate and wax poetic and get on people's nerves sometimes.

And I live in beautiful southern California actually live in Riverside but I'm down in your neck of the woods all the time because it is the best city.

It is America's finest city. That's what we like to call it and I do love living here in April.

But before we get into that, I want you to share with us some insights into your mind and what I call the one minute mindset and the first question being ideally.
