A powerful idea that I can’t stop thinking about…
Kintsugi:
Kintsugi is a Japanese art form that involves the repair of broken pottery with a special lacquer mixed with powdered precious metals (like gold, silver, or platinum).
It takes something broken and reframes the breakage and repair process into a part of the history of the object—a key piece of what makes it beautiful.
This art form offers a powerful metaphor for our lives:
We are all broken in our own unique way. We can choose to hide those cracks and fissures—or we can choose to shine a light on them, illuminate them, and share them with the world.
When we embrace our imperfections, we not only find new power in ourselves, but we give other people permission and strength to do the same. It creates a chain reaction—positive ripples that spread.
Every single struggle, failure, and trauma is a part of who you are and the unique value that you can bring to this world.
Kintsugi tells us to embrace them—both as a reminder of your own self-worth, and as a reminder to others that they can do the same.
