What If Your Breaks Are Made of Gold? (10-Minute Pause)

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 goldWhy the break may be part of the story, not the end of itHow what we choose to repair can reveal what we valueWhy speed is not always healingA gentle Pause to sit with what is asking to be honouredQuestion 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?If this Pause helped you, follow or subscribe - and if someone came to mind while listening, send this episode to them.I am Jorma andYou’re amazing! Not because you never break. But because life can move through you - even there.Jorma - Co-Active Coach | 20+ years corporate🌐 www.jormaschneider.com📅 Free Chemistry Session: https://calendly.com/jormaschneider/30min💼 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jorma-schneiderTimestamps:00:00:00 — What do you do when something breaks?00:00:22 — The third way and why it changes everything00:00:38 — Welcome to You’re Amazing00:01:46 — Kintsugi - to join with gold00:01:55 — The origin story and what it means00:03:40 — The broken mug, the Hamburg workshop, and what stopped me00:06:10 — Three gentle invitations from Kintsugi00:08:46 — The Pause - a guided reflection00:10:21 — Your question for the week
