"All I know is that I was left there and God brought me to where I was supposed to be." - Shannon Thompson, Black, Same Race Adoptee + Foster Care to Adoption Brooklyn, New York. Early '90s. Against the backdrop of fly fashion, music history-in-the-making and a war on Black families - errr, a "war on drugs" - , a newborn girl was abandoned in a hospital. Her emergency foster home in the care of a 52-year-old woman became the only home she's ever known. Shannon Thompson is a survivor and overcomer from birth. While being adopted or raised in kinship care may be considered outside the "norm" by some, Shannon grew up in a community where it was more common for children to live with their grandparents. Shannon called Ms. Sue, her mother/adoptive mom, "Grandma" just like Ms. Sue's grandchildren did. Being raised by an older parent came with some challenges, and also came with love and an ally on Shannon's search for birth family. Years of searching, including 23andMe and Ancestry.com DNA tests, came with dead ends, stalled communications, loss, grief, hope and God's faithfulness. Shannon is clear that the abandonment that happened to her is NOT her. This future licensed clinical psychologist is owning her voice and her story, and intentions to use her experiences and studies to help children and families who share a similar origin story. YESSSS!

A world where women are told to walk on their own and be strong and to work hard to be their own person, Shannon sheds light on what that looks like from her vantage point as a recovering addict and global movement leader. Being a strong independent woman can be lonely and what we need most is interdependence.    Shannon is the visionary of Shakti Rising, which I asked her to define for us. Her response: "Shakti is a grassroots social change organization transforming the lives of women and children and the larger community by cultivating leadership skills, financial, economical and ecological resilience and family wellness through a holistic feminine model”. That definition speaks volumes and she goes on to explain why we need to lean in and learn more.   In this episode, Shannon walks us through a powerful personal story from her past, that she rarely shares, and highlights the true essence of what it means to go from Hot Mess to Awesomeness.   You will be enthralled and uplifted, inspired, and amazed with what she shares with us. Get ready to be interdependently bold!

The professional development series that Shakti Rising works on seeks to encourage us to fill our wells, feed culture, root into in resilience, skill building and foster knowledge sharing. Feedback from the webinar was positive, and several participants asked if there was a recorded version that they could return to at another time. My Yoga Audio seemed like the perfect opportunity to make that happen, and also allow others to tap in to something that could be beneficial. In the webinar, you will be guided through a series of prompts and exercises based primarily on bird wisdom. Yes, bird wisdom!

Are you struggling to get the most out of your racing? In episode 91 of the Final Surge Podcast we talk with Shannon Thompson a sports psychology and mental performance expert at Hypo2Sport in Flagstaff where she works with professional runners and the 2x defending national cross country championship team from NAU. Shannon is going to tell you how to break down your race and get the most out of it mentally.   How did you get involved in the psychology field? 3-day eventing athlete and coach Rode professionally for 12 years and coached for 10 Could see the role the mind played in performance and training Your running career? Parents were road races and marathoners Ran some as a rider Got a boyfriend who was an ultrarunner At the 2-hour marathon attempt, they asked Kipchoge how his training was going to be different. He replied it wasn’t going to be, his mind was going to be. We also know from Dovid Goggins and Navy Seal Training that when your body is done and you do a test of our muscles it shows there is plenty of glycogen left to keep going. So everyone fails before their body really does. What is it that makes some be able to push more than others? Central governor theory  Stress We have known about the central governor since noakes wrote about it in, so we have had time to study it, What have we learned about if we can change our relationship with the central governor? Study with faces flashed positive and negative Study where coaches gave them false positive feedback Mental performance plan Let's take that false positive. If someone is struggling in a race is there anything that can be said to change it or is the athlete's performance or is it they are just having a bad day? Tone matters Task oriented Don't freak out Energy matters - Stand and speak with purpose You can catch those three guys Let’s talk about race plans and the mental game. Running is different than team sports. In most team sports, baseball, football, or even individual sports like tennis or golf you do your play or movement and then have time to think. Running or triathlon you are going and you keep going for several minutes or hours. So I would think the mental game is different. How do you come up with a mental gameplan for endurance athletes? Divide into 1/3 or 1/4 Each section a word or focus point Needs to be worked on in practice Can have two runners on a college team who workout and live and eat together, but on race day one outperformes the other. How much of that difference could be mental? Many things we do not know, we need to get to know the people involved We don't try to compare athletes to each other If you are sitting down with that runner who is struggling, what type of questions do you ask them to gauge if it is a mental block? Explore past races when they were their best Find patterns Can you give us an example of how you break down your races into 1/3s? We talk about things we need to do daily, the night before a race, the day of a race, warm ups etc First 1/3 is usually about patience  Second 1/3 is gratitude or love  Final 1/3 something about them being tough self I Heard you at the NAU camp a couple of weeks ago. You had a great story about love and how love can have an impact.  Can you share that story with our listeners? Noticed from interviewing runners their best race stories usually involve love What are some common traits you see between those who excel and those who struggle? Excel - Seek out advice, humble, inclusive, more relaxed They love the process  We know you work with college and professional athletes. What do you notice the difference in ages and how things change? HS athletes are harder on themselves  We hear a lot about positive thinking. We all know this is important. But let’s look at just this last year’s Boston Marathon. Desi’s self-talk early was I don't feel good. I am going to try to help Flanagan my Olympic Team member, so her self-talk didn't seem to be great. Yet she went on to win. So what do you think happened there? The desire to help her friend gave her purpose Is there much research that shows a correlation between stress and physical ailments?  Not the level of stress that impacts their health, it is the belief about their stress If you believe stress is going to have an impact vs a challenge you are looking forward to, it will have a bigger impact Books recommend? Mindset by Carol Dweck Flow by Mihaly Csikszentmihaly The Rise of Superman by Steven Kotler Upside of Stress by Kelly McGonigal Psyching for Sports by Terry Orlick Mans Search for Meaning by Viktor Frankl Radical Acceptance by Tara Brach When Things Fall Apart by Pema Chödrön Talent Code and Culture Code by Daniel Coyle One thing we hear a lot about these days is mindfulness can you talk about how you use and teach it? Corework for brain If the core is strong you stay more stable Quiets noise in the brain Increase brains ability to pay attention  Final Surge 5 questions in under a minute Favorite endurance/running book? - Momentum  Current trainers you are wearing? - Nike React Favorite race? - Sun Run 10k Favorite recovery meal or recovery drink? - Dense and sweet like fudge or icing Your favorite workout - Technical downhill Resources Email shannon@hypo2sport.com Instagram https://www.instagram.com/shannonleighthompson Instagram https://www.instagram.com/positivevoices/ Website https://highperformanceinstitute.mykajabi.com/blog/

Upbeat with Tom Hayes and the UK's Bronte Huskinson and Sarah Newton from the UK discuss their novel, "Never MInd My Thigh Gap"  “One ordinary girl, one extraordinary moment”  There are three things everyone notices about Alice.  1. Her super-hot rugby boyfriend.  2. Her sophisticated, totally gorgeous best friend.  3. Her very noticeable 38-inch long legs.  Alice is tall — just under six feet to be exact — but her self-esteem couldn’t be smaller. When her relationship starts wavering, Alice’s perfectly beautiful best friend somehow convinces her to join a modelling competition, “for a confidence boost.” But Alice is just a normal girl; she loves ice cream too much, has an unhealthy addiction to American TV and lusts after the elusive thigh gap. She can’t even walk in heels, let alone in a bikini, but she finds herself joining Runway Models anyway.  The finale is only a few months away.  Will Alice catwalk her way to self-confidence or fail, proving everyone right?  People can surprise you.    "A light, humorous coming of age story about self-awareness, growth, and beauty—both inside and out." Shannon Thompson, Author of The Timely Death Trilogy
