Tami LoPresti walked through fire, literally, at a Tony Robbins event in Miami. But the real fire came much earlier: unsafe years, a life she was not sure she would survive, and a night when she chose to live.
She tells it in her own words. The relationship she had to get out of, and what it took to leave with a small child. The night her body stayed in the bed and she did not: a woman's voice, more like a song than words, saying it was time to go. The moment she understood what leaving would mean for her daughter, and said no.
Then the years of rebuilding. Single mother, office jobs, nothing that lit her up from the inside, until a book from her aunt put numbers in her hands. Twenty years later she is a numerologist, a teacher, a mother of three and a grandmother, with a podcast of her own and a book she says she never wanted to write: If Numbers Could Talk... (Oh Wait... They Do!).
Somewhere in those twenty years came the reading where she heard herself say things she was not thinking, and asked: who is saying this? She shut it all down for a while. Then she called her sister.
In the second half Tami reads Seka's numbers, and describes a meadow with tall grass that Seka had seen in her meditation that same morning. They talk about repeating numbers, about asking a question and then going quiet, and about what she means when she says we are not defined by our story.
