From being jumped into a gang at age 12, to bodybuilding through emotional pain, to chasing escape through substances and NYC underground parties, Jamie’s story is anything but ordinary.

In this raw and unfiltered episode of Tami Talks: Unscripted Healing, we explore what it looks like to go from a life built on survival and ego to one rooted in emotional regulation, inner child healing, and radical self-awareness and acceptance.

Together, we unpack how early trauma shaped Jamie’s identity, the masks he wore to survive, why you can’t out-lift, out-hustle, or out-numb your pain, and what finally cracked him open to a new way of being where vulnerability became strength and stillness became power.

Whether you're a parent, a Projector in Human Design, a coach, or simply someone on a healing journey, this episode offers insight, validation, and a powerful reminder: You’re not broken. You are "perfect, whole, and complete!"
