  • What if I told you that healing from injury and trauma isn’t about returning to who you were? Whole Again: A Fresh Approach to Healing, Growth & Resilience after Physical Trauma Through Kintsugi Mindfulness gives you the support you need to heal, grow stronger, and embrace who you are becoming. Inspired by the Japanese art of “Golden Repair,” Kintsugi teaches us that even when life breaks us, we can rebuild—stronger, wiser, and more beautiful than before. Listen to discover how to: Overcome self-doubt, imposter syndrome, and perfectionism by shifting your mindset. Build emotional resilience and manage stress through mindfulness, breathwork, and grounding techniques. Cultivate self-love, gratitude, and confidence to support your healing and transformation. I’m Michael O’Brien—husband, Girl Dadx2, son, friend, animal lover, and survivor. After a near-death cycling accident—what I call My Last Bad Day—the metaphor of Kintsugi helped me see that I could be whole again. Today, as a coach, speaker, and meditation teacher, I offer a steady hand to support you on your healing journey and help you fully step into the person you are becoming.
