Get Loud About What Lights You Up

Because shrinking isn’t sexy—and you weren’t born to whisper.

When did playing it safe become the default? Somewhere along the way, we learned to turn down our volume, hide the wild parts of ourselves, and box up our biggest dreams so they don’t scare anyone else.

We’re taught that being quiet, polite, and “easy to handle” is how you survive and thrive.

But here’s the raw truth:

Shrinking yourself doesn’t protect you. It kills your spark.

Every time you silence your joy, tuck away your passion, or dim your fire to fit in, you’re telling yourself one thing: “I’m not enough as I am.”

That lie is dangerous.

Because your energy — your unique, raw, unfiltered energy — is your greatest asset. It’s the edge you bring to everything you do. Your fire is the power that can light your way through any darkness.

Your joy? It’s the revolution you’re meant to lead.

Getting Loud Matters

When you get loud about what lights you up, you start owning your life.

You stop trying to be “nice” or “acceptable” and start being real.

You break free from the prison of approval-seeking.

You stop shrinking to fit other people’s expectations.

And the magic? That kind of raw authenticity is magnetic.

It pulls in the right people.

Opens doors you didn’t even know existed.

Creates momentum that keeps pushing you forward.

What Getting Loud Looks Like

• Saying yes to what excites you, even if it scares the hell out of you.

  
  

• Sharing your wild ideas without apology.

  
  

• Showing up in your full, messy, beautiful glory—loud, proud, and unapologetic.

  
  

• Owning your quirks, your passions, your fire like the badass you are.

  
  

It’s not about being obnoxious or seeking attention. It’s about being real.

Real Talk: Getting Loud About Sutra Studios

I still remember when we first started Sutra in 2008.

We weren’t riding a wellness trend—we were flipping it the hell over.

The wellness scene at the time? It was all curated outfits, filtered quotes, and self-proclaimed gurus selling enlightenment like it came in a mason jar. It felt more like a popularity contest than a path to healing.

But we weren’t about that life.

We weren’t selling perfection. We were serving self-empowerment. We weren’t preaching from pedestals—we were walking beside people, hand-in-hand, building something real. Our message was radical self-love. Raw, unpolished, soul-deep truth.

And let me tell you—it wasn’t cute or trendy back then. It was misunderstood. Uncomfortable. Sometimes mocked.

But I didn’t care. I believed in it. I believed in you—in a community that was craving more than surface-level healing. So, I got loud.

I showed up fully, unapologetically. I poured that fire into our classes, our events, our mission. And slowly, it caught. People started showing up not to impress—but to express. To move, to heal, to remember their power. That’s the moment everything changed.

Getting loud about what lights you up doesn’t mean it’s going to be easy. It means you do it anyway. Loud, proud, and on your own terms.

Who Do You Admire?

Think about the people who inspire you. Chances are, they didn’t get there by shrinking.

They own their weirdness, their loudness, their joy. They don’t apologize for lighting up the room when they walk in.

They got loud about what mattered to them—and that’s why they’re unforgettable.

Your Mission, Should You Choose to Accept It

Stop softening your edges.

Stop hiding your joy.

Stop shrinking your energy to fit in.

Get loud.

Get wild.

Get unapologetically YOU.

Because the world doesn’t need another quiet voice. It needs your fire blazing bright.

Turn up the volume on your happiness.

You were never born to whisper.
