When Bold Meets Gentle: My Inspired Chat with Bold Journey

Calia Brencsosn-Van Dyk was recently featured in Bold Journey Magazine

Every so often, a conversation arrives that feels less like an interview and more like a long walk with a kindred spirit. My recent feature on Bold Journey was exactly that.

They asked deep, delicious questions about risk, creative identity, and how I help artists and entrepreneurs weave their brand stories. I said yes to every twist and turn — about growing Caliativity, writing, and standing steady when life tries to blow you off course.

What I love most is that the piece isn’t a résumé; it’s a journey.It’s about daring to stop seeking approval, about letting purpose and play sit at the same table. It’s about listening (really listening) to what wants to come next.

Why I’m Sharing This with You

Because you and I have been walking this path together — through coaching calls, productions, scribbled notebooks, and late-night brainstorms.Because maybe you’ve been wondering how to give yourself permission to begin.Because stories light stories.

I hope you’ll read it with a cup of tea and a curious heart. Pause wherever a sentence catches you. Maybe jot a note about the idea that wants to follow you around today.
