Sanctuary Within






I am a Kintsugi woman. I have been broken by life’s challenges, by others and by my own mistakes. I have felt the pain of being shattered into pieces, and sometimes I thought I could never be whole again.


I did not give up.

I did not let the cracks define me.

I did not let the darkness consume me.

I did not let the fear stop me.

I did not let the shame silence me.

I did not let the guilt paralyze me.


In the quiet stillness of my soul, I find strength where the cracks of my being are mended with passion and spirit as the guiding forces. I use faith, forgiveness, hope, joy, love, and peace as precious gold to fill my brokenness. I embrace the beauty of imperfection, knowing that my brokenness is a canvas for transformation and growth.


The threads of resilience weave through my essence, reminding me that each scar carries a story of resilience and rebirth. My journey is one of vulnerability and the resilience of self. As I walk this path of healing and self-discovery, I am blessed to bless, forgiven to forgive, loved to love, luminated to illuminate, showing that even in my brokenness, I can find strength, beauty, and grace.


I became a Kintsugi woman, a woman who is not afraid to show her vulnerability, a woman who is proud of her journey, a woman who is grateful for her lessons, a woman who is confident in her worth, and a woman who is radiant in her beauty.


I found sanctuary within myself, a place where I can heal, grow, and thrive.

A place where I can be myself, without judgment, without comparison, without expectation. A place where I can connect with my soul, my true essence, my divine spark.

A place where I can create, express, and share my gifts with the world.


I am a Kintsugi woman, and this is my story.

A story of pain and healing, of struggle and triumph, of brokenness and wholeness, of kintsugi and alchemy.

A story that I hope will inspire you, encourage you, and empower you to find your sanctuary within.

A story that will remind you that you are not alone, that you are not broken
