Kintsugi Dandelion Spirit

Kintsugi, the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery with gold, symbolizes the beauty in imperfection and the strength found in healing. This philosophy can be compared to us as women on our journey of Discovery, Acceptance, Healing, Transformation, and Awakening. Like a dandelion, that transforms from a simple flower to a symbol of resilience and hope, a woman’s journey of changes and growth.
