Her birth was without a left hand, and it's an aspect of her identity, but that's not the entire story. Lockhart's profile on Instagram doesn't reveal her disability, but does not concentrate solely on her disability. The point? The message is of identities and that we're far more than our physical selves. We don't want to allow that to determine me. I do not want to become a disability advocate which is what I'm talking about, because there are many other aspects to me Lockhart says via video from her home in Nashville. My daily life isn't impaired by the disability. I just live my normal, everyday life and find my own solutions to issues. But it's also a part of me and I feel it's important that we talk about. The journey of self-acceptance that Lockhart has taken is one that can last for a long time, and she has been a source of inspiration in this regard. Still she admits she's gone through phases with her body at times feeling insecure to wear specific types of clothes showing off the arms of her. Now, she dresses in whatever she'd like. Also, she uploads her pictures to social media. Self-love she said is like a journey. "I do not think that it's possible to be there," she said. This is true for everyone regardless of their levels of anxiety. It's important to have people around you who are aware of and appreciate you. They'll be able to remind you of what you are worried about.
