Heart of Fire
A fiery blast erupted, trapping the little girl in the one place she had felt safe. Alone under searing rubble, she caught fire. The horrendous burns Lesia Stockall Cartelli suffered didn't stop her, though. They inspired her. As an adult, Lesia's work with others who have suffered traumas prompted her to vanquish her lingering terror by returning to another blazing building TO FACE HER FEARS. This resourceful woman credits herclose relationship with the spiritual world for turning her personal tragedy into a rich, fulfilling life. She is renowned for teaching her transformational techniques through the non-profit Angel Faces®. Now, in Heart of Fire, she strives to share her approach with a broader audience. This inspiring book shows other emotionally and physically damaged people how not to waste their pain, but to use the pain to connect with deeper purpose, AND FACE THEIR FEARS. Her true story addresses all those who face life-changing events, even those brought about by minor decisions.
Lesia Stockall Cartelli has already captivated national audiences through CNN, Dr. Phil, and Associated Press publications. Her experience inspired a whole chapter for bestselling author Mark Nepo, who has kindly offered a written endorsement of the book. Believing many readers will benefit from having the story's details in print and in hand, Lesia has written Heart of Fire.
The book follows a courageous and vulnerable child who matures into a woman of deep-soul awakening, purpose and acceptance USING THESE EXPERIENCES TO TEACH THE READERS HOW TO LEVERAGE THEIR PAIN AND CREATE THE LIFE THEY DESIRE. Lesia was born into unconventional circumstances. Then, at age nine, the natural gas explosion left her terribly scarred with severe burns over half her body. She was subjected to cruel discrimination and painful reconstructive procedures. Throughout this ordeal Lesia had dramatic encouragement from sources many people overlook — living “guides” as well as the angels who rescued her from the explosion. Heart of Fire takes you into a journey of laughter, tears and more laughter.
Key incidents and individuals shape the Heart of Fire narrative. A natural storyteller, Lesia builds compassion, entertains and motivates. Her emotions and faith are palpable and her results irrefutable. She is the founder and CEO of Angel Faces®. The successful non-profit runs a program to help adolescent girls from all over the world with burn/trauma injuries achieve their optimum potential. The girls cultivate skills for developing meaningful relationships with friends, their families, and their communities.Like the Angel Faces® program, Heart of Fire encourages us to peel away the limited identities and labels cast upon us by experience, and helps us seek new, more profound self-identity.
Heart of Fire is greatly distinguished from burn-survivor books, and even most spiritual books, because it calls on everyone (not just the wounded) to craft a mission of generous dedication to others. Lesia's rallying cry springs from her attributes that have nothing to do with her physical appearance. As she writes: I am so much more than my scars. We all are!
Lesia urges everyone to mobilize those non-physical attributes. Heart of Fire, in telling Lesia's story, gives readers many guideposts. It includes sidebars with inspirational descriptions of her Angel Faces®' alumnae. The book's message is that each of us is capable of creating a healing path by utilizing his or her pain. This pain is a fuel, either to find a cause to help make the world a better place, or to create a cause about which to be passionate. We can each trust our heart, our intuition and our faith! This message is appropriate for all readers. As an educator, motivational speaker, and inspiration professional, Lesia is uniquely equipped to deliver it.
