“Céline Santini was both insightful and integral to our campaign with Ingka Centres, bringing the knowledge and focus to our Beauty of Remaking and Kintsugi workshops – a real pleasure to work with!”

“What if the art of Kintsugi could also inspire our companies?” Last June in Angers, Céline Santini led an exceptionally powerful workshop for the Dynabuy Le CEP business clubs of Angers, Tours and Le Mans. It was a suspended moment in time, where every crack became a source of strength and every scar a golden point of light — a beautiful parallel with the life of a leader, made of challenges, rebuilding, and rebirths. Thank you, Céline, for your art, your authenticity, and your transformative energy.”
 

“It was quite an incredible moment ; almost outside reality. A collective introspection, which made it even more powerful. Guided by Celine Santini, an exceptional coach and facilitator, the experience was full of surprises, emotions, smiles, joy, and discoveries! It was truly a beautiful experience, and I’m so glad I lived it. This interlude helped me reflect on my life, my wounds, the bruises and bumps I carry, and transform them. That was the purpose! I turned them into gold, into beauty, into who I am. I’m deeply grateful to have experienced this with Celine, and with the group. Doing this alone, with a book, would have been nothing like the power of the collective, the immersion, the shared energy of two full days. Thank you, Celine.”

“Subliming, together as a team!”

“A magnificent discovery of myself… Seeing these two pieces come back together warms my heart. I made it through! It feels like the birth of a new self: different, stronger. Thank you for the sparkles, the magic, the strength growing inside me: one that may now allow me to continue forward, and perhaps pass this strength on to others. Thank you, Céline, from the bottom of my heart.”

“I found it a great experience, interesting and inspiring — it makes you want to do it again with more time to go deeper.
– Yes, it’s truly calming. We were in the same group. It was lovely, soothing, and beautiful.
– It makes me want to learn more about Japan.
– Personally, I really enjoyed it. A beautiful discovery, aesthetically very pleasing, and symbolically meaningful.
– Ah, it’s powerful!
– It’s a great moment of introspection. I love self-reflection, and this approach was original.
– A wonderful discovery, as the group said. A beautiful metaphor for life.”

“I really enjoyed this experience, first because it helped me discover so much about myself. It offers a space to reflect inwardly. And simply dedicating that time already creates a deep introspective process that helps you move forward. Beyond that, it’s also highly contemplative, aesthetically rich, and truly soothing. In two words: peaceful and introspective.”

“Thank you, Céline, for this moment. I built, deconstructed, and rebuilt my Kintsugi. It was a beautiful interlude,  a precious experience. My intention was to repair and to accept. And I truly feel that I’ve healed certain things and that I can now move forward with trust, which has become something of a mantra for me. The most illuminating moment was the revelation of my artwork and of my inner beauty, which I’m now fully aware of. Everything makes sense… Thank you, it was a very beautiful experience.”

“I loved it. There was so much emotion. I discovered parts of myself that had been buried and were finally expressed. We managed to put words to many feelings and to release what had been heavy. I loved the whole concept. It’s truly beautiful !”

“It was a moment of gathering: between participants, but also within ourselves. And I think it was a success.”

“These two days were pure wonder. Magic, childlike spirit, symbolism, kindness. Something within me was repaired,and something new began.”

“I had the great pleasure of welcoming Céline Santini to the State University of Trade and Economics (Kyiv) as an invited lecturer. She delivered an engaging open lecture for students of Journalism and Marketing.
Her presentation masterfully combined the philosophy of kintsugi – the Japanese art of visible repair – with practical insights for communication and marketing professionals. Drawing on real-world examples and a deeply humanistic approach, Céline demonstrated how authenticity, emotional intelligence, and resilience can strengthen brands and teams in times of crisis.
I warmly recommend Céline as an author and lecturer for academic and professional audiences alike, for her depth of thought, empathy, and ability to translate profound ideas into practical strategies.”

“I had the chance to take part in a workshop inspired by an ancestral Japanese art: Kintsugi — the art of repairing a broken bowl by highlighting its cracks with gold. A symbolic way of saying that our wounds, far from diminishing us, can become the most beautiful parts of our story. Celine, who leads this workshop, has turned this ancient craft into a model of emotional repair. Like those bowls, we all have our fractures — moments that broke or marked us. Yet when we look at them with kindness, they can become sources of strength, beauty, and resilience. A beautiful moment, blending introspection, creativity, and gentleness. Everyone left with a unique bowl — a reflection of their own journey. Thank you, Celine, for this soft and powerful interlude. I leave with a richer bowl — and a heart a little more golden.”

“Thank you so much, Celine: everyone absolutely loved it!”

“A moment suspended between gold and light — a wonderful experience I didn’t expect at all. This morning, I had the chance to join a Kintsugi workshop led by Celine Santini, as part of the Femmes de Territoires network gatherings.
I’m still filled with this gentle yet powerful introspection. Everything was there: the harmony of the space, the warmth of the welcome, the light dancing on the walls, and above all, Celine’s generosity — so open, sincere, and attentive. I knew Kintsugi as a technique, but had never considered it as an inner journey. Now, it feels obvious.
Celine guided us through a delicate process where every step carried meaning. You can feel that everything is thought through, yet nothing is rigid. Her approach reflects who she is — beautiful, coherent, inspiring, and never forced.
I leave with a precious object — one I’ll keep secret, as part of the magic — and with a new conviction: our scars don’t need to be erased. They can be revealed. And even become strength.
Thank you, Celine, for this moment of alignment, and for your gentle, luminous presence.”

“If there was one intervention that perfectly embodied the theme of our conference, it was yours. Like the two bowls you passed around, I believe we all felt somehow larger, more whole, after your ‘repair.’ ”
 

“Thank you so much, Celine, for this inspiring workshop!”

“Thank you Celine it was perfect!”

“We are delighted to have shared this moment with you. Thank you again for your creativity and your energy!”
 

“We would like to thank Celine Santini for her expertise and support throughout this Kintsugi workshop.”

“I highly recommend Celine Santini for her professionalism and her sharp expertise in Kintsugi and resilience. I organized a film debate on March 8th for International Women’s Day, inviting several experts to raise awareness about domestic violence. Celine spoke on the theme of resilience and completely captivated the audience as she explained the philosophy and stages of Kintsugi.
She drew a moving parallel between the painful journeys of the survivors present and this Japanese art of repair, still too little known. To the delight of the audience and the other guests, Celine managed to raise awareness while making this art-therapy approach deeply accessible. If you are organizing conferences or debates on these topics, I wholeheartedly recommend Celine : she knows how to adapt to every audience.
For your information, she also offers workshops tailored to each group’s specific needs.”

“Thank you for these two beautiful days! Thank you for creating such a caring space, for shaping a group where we all felt safe, where we could each learn in our own way while benefiting from the collective energy. Thank you so much!”

“On behalf of the Nanotouristes Association, we wish to warmly thank Céline for the beautiful Kintsugi discovery workshop she led during our ‘Faire Ensemble’ Forum. Her kind listening, inspiring guidance, and sensitive pedagogy allowed each participant to experience a creative and deeply symbolic moment.
This workshop offered everyone a precious opportunity to reconnect with themselves through the art of Kintsugi and contributed to making this forum a truly memorable experience. Thank you again, Céline, for your generosity and radiant energy. We hope to collaborate again very soon!”
