About Kintsukuroi Heart
There comes a time in every woman’s life when everything changes—sometimes by choice, and sometimes because life gives us no choice at all. These moments can break us open, but they can also lead us to the truest version of ourselves.
This book is a heartfelt collection of stories about loss, love, addiction, recovery, and the long, winding path to healing. Each story stands on its own, yet together they create a portrait of the journey from pain to peace, from feeling unworthy to knowing one’s worth. Through honesty and vulnerability, Amie invites readers to look at their own broken pieces and see them not as something to hide, but as something to honor.
Drawing inspiration from the ancient Japanese art of kintsukuroi—mending what is broken with gold—Amie shares how years of struggle, grief, and recovery became her greatest teachers. After decades of sobriety and self-discovery, she shows that healing isn’t about erasing the past, but embracing it. Every crack tells a story. Every scar holds light.
This is a book for women who have been through the storm and are learning to love themselves again. It’s for those who have carried shame or regret, and are ready to see that they were never broken beyond repair. It’s for anyone who needs to hear, maybe for the first time, that they are still worthy, still beautiful, and still whole.
With warmth, compassion, and hard-earned wisdom, Amie reminds us that healing is possible, hope is real, and that sometimes the most broken hearts are the ones that shine the brightest.
