O TYM ODCINKU
Something broke.
Maybe a relationship. A dream. A version of yourself you thought would last.
And maybe your first instinct was to hide it or move on as fast as possible.
In this 10-Minute Pause, I explore Kintsugi - the centuries-old Japanese art of repairing broken ceramics with gold. Not to hide the break. But to honour it.
I’m not a ceramics expert. This is my lens, my understanding, and what this concept activated in me - including a broken mug, a always fully booked workshop, and a coaching moment I have never forgotten.
This episode is for you if you’ve ever tried to get back to who you were before - instead of asking who you are becoming through this.
In this Pause:
- A simple glimpse into Kintsugi - to join with gold
- Why the break may be part of the story, not the end of it
- How what we choose to repair can reveal what we value
- Why speed is not always healing
- A gentle Pause to sit with what is asking to be honoured
Question for your week:
What in my life am I trying to hide, rush past, or replace - that might actually be worth repairing with gold?
Or more simply:
What break in my story is asking to be honoured - not erased?

I am Jorma and
You’re amazing! Not because you never break. But because life can move through you - even there.
