The point is not to “make it,” the point is to be made by it.

To walk toward the fire and find yourself forged.

To say: this is what I saw while I was alive.

In Great Callings, bestselling author Brianna Wiest addresses common barriers to living a creative life with purpose—fear, resistance, distraction, external validation, and inherited beliefs about suffering—and repositions them as invitations to deepen one’s clarity and resilience. Inspired by some of the greatest artists in history, it encourages the reader to embrace growth, develop emotional intelligence, and align daily actions with their deeper values.

Through poetic insight and grounded practical wisdom, the book ultimately invites readers to stop waiting for permission, to honor their unique creative essence, and to engage fully with the life they are already being called to live.

Brianna is the bestselling author of the books , , , and more. Her books have sold millions of copies, regularly appear on global bestseller lists, and are currently being translated into 40+ languages. She has a B.A. in English and an Honorary Doctorate in Literature, both from Elizabethtown College.
