In this episode of Peaceful Life Radio, we sit down with Kelly Holden, author of 'Kintsugi Life: Finding Strength and Hope in the Face of Loss.' Kelly shares her deeply personal journey through the illness and loss of her first husband Nick, and her path to finding new love and joy with her current husband Keith, who is also widowed. The discussion delves into the art of Kintsugi, a Japanese technique of repairing broken pottery with gold, and how it serves as a metaphor for piecing one's life back together after tragedy. Touching on themes of grief, resilience, and the importance of support systems, Kelly offers invaluable insights for anyone navigating loss. Join us as we explore how brokenness can be transformed into something beautiful, richer, and more meaningful.
