“To be seen and heard as your full self is the beginning of real healing.”
Curated by Courtney: autistic, soft-spoken, and finally unmasked.

Meet the Writer Behind The Soft Loud
I’m Courtney — writer, playlist curator, and quiet creative behind The Soft Loud. Sometimes, you’ll meet CoCo — a visual narrator who helps bring this world to life. But at its heart, this space is deeply personal.
I’m a late-diagnosed autistic Black woman writing through identity, softness, and second chances. The Soft Loud is my quiet rebellion — a cozy space for deep feelers, creative late bloomers, and women like us who grew up loud on the inside.
