Beyond Bold
The rules for success are changing - and fast. Beyond Bold isn’t another “how I built my startup” podcast. It helps ambitious people navigate what it really means to thrive in a world shaped by culture shifts, new technologies, and evolving ideas of ambition.
Hosted by award-winning entrepreneur Kyla Bolden, the show zooms out to explore the patterns, ideas, and cultural changes that shape modern ambition. From AI breakthroughs and future-of-work trends to the rituals, habits, and quirks that fuel happiness and achievement, Beyond Bold connects the dots between identity, culture, and success.
Through sharp solo episodes and smart conversations with thought leaders, Kyla delivers thoughtful—and sometimes playful—commentary that goes deeper than recycled business advice. This is success reimagined: not as hustle, but as a life well lived.

How to Build a Purpose-Driven, Sustainable Beauty Brand with Christina Kuklinski, Founder of Kook
In this episode of Beyond Bold, I sit down with my longtime friend and founder of Kook, Christina Kuklinski, to talk about what it really takes to build a beauty brand that’s good for you — and the ocean. From living on dive boats around the world to creating reef-safe, high-performing products, Christina shares her journey of turning a personal problem into a purpose-driven company.
We also talk about building community around your brand, the difference between impact and greenwashing, and how timing and bold decisions often shape success more than perfection. If you’ve ever thought about launching a product or just want to understand what “clean beauty” really means, this one’s for you.
