There are a lot of aspects to Lockhart. However, it doesn't affect my daily life. I continue to do my normal activities and I've adapted to my disability. Because it's my identity, it's something that's worthy of discussion. Lockhart has served as an excellent inspiration to her fellow women with regards to acceptance of oneself. Still she admits she's gone through phases of her body, at times, being unsure about wearing particular types of clothes which showed the arms of her. She dresses according to her preferences and is proud to post pictures of herself in the outfits she wears on social media. Self-love for her was an extended journey. However, that is common for anyone that is prone to doubts. It's vital to surround yourself people who can discern and understand your heart.
