What tests us, what changes us, and what helps us move forward.
April Capochino Myers is an author and journalist who has spent years writing about how people live through loss, upheaval, and change — including in her own life.
Through her writing, podcast, speaking, and one-on-one conversations, she helps people cut through the noise, find the ideas that matter, and figure out what might help them move forward.
Living in the Gray
Living in the Gray is a memoir about loss, contradiction, change, and the long process of finding peace without pretending life is simple.
Through snapshots from her own life, April writes about the moments that changed her, the lessons she resisted, and what she learned about making room for two opposing truths at the same time.
Cutting through the noise
There’s no shortage of advice about how to heal, grow, move forward, or find peace.
April has spent years working her way through it — through therapy, books, podcasts, programs, conversations, reporting, and her own life. She doesn’t claim to have invented the answers. Her strength, drawn in part from a 25-year career as a journalist, is sorting through what’s out there, finding the ideas that seem useful, and helping people figure out where to begin.
She can’t do the work for anyone. But she can help people cut through the noise.

Loving through loss
