Tamiko Messenger: What Changed After She Died?
Episode 14
Monday, 9 February, 2026
Tamiko Messenger is the author of The Word: There Is No Other Way, and we spoke about surviving a near-fatal accident, returning from death, and carrying a message of faith, accountability, and compassion. Before the accident, she endured years of bullying, harassment, racism, and injustice that shaped how she saw the world and herself. Then came the moment that redefined everything—when her “heart stopped,” and she experienced what she describes as overwhelming safety and love, realizing later that “the safety and the security… was something I had never felt before.”Her turning point wasn’t just survival—it was recognition. After questioning where God had been, she recalls the realization: “Oh, Lord, you were there for me… I have always been there for you.” That shift reframed her life from resentment to responsibility. Today, her approach centers on rejecting retaliation, strengthening inner discipline, and choosing prayer over revenge. As she explains, when someone hurts her, she pushes the reaction down and says, “I’m gonna say a prayer for you,” focusing instead on peace.Tamiko connects her personal story to a broader warning about how people treat one another. Having lived through cruelty both before and after the accident, she urges listeners to interrupt what she calls the “domino effect” of harm—because “when you do something ugly to one person, that person is going to go out and attack somebody else.” Her message is grounded in gratitude for everyday abilities many overlook, reminding us that everything “can be taken away.”This conversation offers a direct reminder to examine how we respond to suffering, how quickly life can change, and why choosing compassion may be the most practical path forward.Key takeawaysInterrupt the “domino effect” by refusing to pass harm to others.Replace retaliation with prayer or reflection before reacting.Recognize everyday abilities as privileges, not guarantees.Question resentment; perspective often follows survival.Treat others with dignity regardless of status or differences.
