Get inspired Sunday night with My Soul University Radio Hour guest Stephen Jon Thompson
How does a nine-year-old boy who was abandoned, frightened and put “into the system” set himself on a path for becoming a top technology executive working with some of the globe’s most impactful corporations — Google, Apple, Nike, Linked In, Amazon? To hear Stephen Jon Thompson tell it, the answer is the warm embrace of community, the mighty hearts of Carson City, and the family who made him their own, gave him what he needed to triumph when he needed it most.
If you want to be touched by how a series of simple, caring touches can save a life and marvel at the strength of character needed to overcome the extreme burdens of poverty, homelessness and neglect, tune in and be inspired by Stephen’s story on My Soul University Radio Hour this Sunday, August 15th at 5:00 P.M. on KNVC 95.1 or livestream at www.knvc.org.
Thompson will join host Kitty McKay and Moderator Ken Farley to talk about the importance of connecting with people and forming your perfect community in life.
“Stephen is a force of nature, honestly. His story and how he tells it embodies the power and purpose of connecting to others,” McKay said. “Understanding his journey of overcoming seemingly insurmountable obstacles helps shine a light on how each of us can become a force of healing for our neighbors in need.”
For local listeners, hearing how Thompson called upon his inner strength to succeed will be moving, as will the credit he gives for much of his success to the connections he made right here in Carson City.
If you’re ready to be inspired and gain deeper understanding of how one extraordinary person rose above it all, this episode is not to be missed.
