episode 90: April Diaz: Growing into your Gifts, Calling, and Purpose
April Diaz joins Melissa on the mic for our Everyday Woman Series. April grew up in a fundamentalist Christian family and was taught that a woman's place was in the home, caring for her husband and children. As a child, April identified as a leader with loads of ambition and vision and never quite fit the female stereotypes that were expected of her. At 16 years old, April experienced a calling from God asking to invest her life into the next generation. Today, April is the Founder and CEO of Ezer + Co., a coaching company that helps women live and lead with wholeness.
