Kintsugi Soul Movement

A survivor-led movement reclaiming those stories and transforming them into truth, visibility, and change. Inspired by the Japanese art of Kintsugi — where broken pottery is repaired with gold — we believe that we should not hide the trauma of domestic violence and what was broken by it. It comes from honouring survival, restoring dignity, and using lived experience to reshape culture and systems.

From surviving to strength. From pain to purpose. From silence to change.

KSM Visionary

“At every crossroads, I ask myself: If not now, when? If not me, who? These questions guide my purpose and remind me that our legacy begins when our story ends. The Kintsugi Soul Movement is my answer, transforming pain into purpose and resilience into collective strength. A collective strength towards zero domestic violence.”

One night of life-threatening violence shattered the illusion of safety Amitha had spent years trying to hold together. After nearly two decades of abuse, she made a courageous, life-altering choice: to walk away from everything she had built in order to choose life. 

People who she thought were her support system turned away. Her abuser denied the truth. With little more than her will to survive and the support of a small circle who believed her, Amitha began again. 

When she started to speak about her experience, others living in silence began to speak too. Every story was the same. 

Survivors stay because silence, fear, and broken systems leave them with impossible choices.


From this truth, the Kintsugi Soul Movement was born.


Amitha will walk across the nation to raise awareness, spark courageous conversations, and shift the question from “Why did you stay?” to “Who caused you harm and how did they maintain it?”


Like Kintsugi — the art of repairing with gold — Amitha is repairing her broken life with purpose, advocacy, and hope. She invites everyone to find their Kintsugi Soul.
