Welcome to the podcast — I’m so honored to welcome April Day Garcia.
April is the author of the breathtaking memoir The Room to Be Brave, a book built around one powerful question:
What if healing meant walking back into the rooms you’ve spent your whole life trying to escape?
In Room to Be Brave, April invites us into the invisible house we all carry — the one made of memories that shaped us, moments that broke us, and rooms we’ve kept locked for far too long.
Because every memory lives in a room.
The apartment where Child Protective Services came.
The stranger’s couch where she woke up filled with shame.
The living room where she decided to leave California for good.
Some rooms hold laughter and light. Others hold grief, fear, and the kind of shame we’re convinced we’ve buried forever.
For a long time, April believed healing meant closing doors.
Now she knows it means opening them — slowly, honestly — and letting the light in.
Through surviving a brush with death, recovering in a body she didn’t recognize, living with chronic illness, navigating addiction, divorce, and a deeply complicated relationship with her mother, April has learned something profound:
Bravery isn’t about feeling brave.
It’s about showing up for yourself again and again — even when you’re exhausted.
This memoir isn’t about perfection or resolution. It’s about the messy, ongoing work of piecing yourself back together — room by room, breath by breath — and finding the courage to step into the very spaces you once believed would break you.
I cannot wait for you to hear this conversation.
