by Rebecca Thompson | Dec 15, 2016 | Blog

I’ve always been a bookworm. As a little kid I’d go to the library and check out stacks of books at a time and devour them in just a few days just to go right back for more. My library card was my first passport and those books took me all over the world. I’d dream...

I’m excited to finally share that I’ve joined I’m excited to finally share that I’ve joined re:power, one of the progressive movement’s largest training and leadership development organizations as their new Managing Director of Strategic Initiatives. In this newly created position, I’ll have the opportunity to implement re:power’s bold/visionary strategic plan while also creating dope partnerships and initiatives across the movement. Most importantly, as a Black-led organization with an all womxn of color leadership team, I’ll get to work with some of the most brilliant folks in the movement and create even more impact. After spending a week with the full team recently, I have never felt so welcomed, and having been a trainer since 2018, it feels like coming home. I’m confident that this is the right opportunity at the right time and it’s exactly where I’m supposed to be. I can’t wait to see all the magic we make together! #repower #yesandlife #newchapter
After losing my election, I began coaching and con After losing my election, I began coaching and consulting with other candidates running for office at the state and local levels. I started giving them access to my campaign’s Google Drive with the instructions not to share it with others. You know exactly what happened next. Downloads from complete strangers (including mostly white dudes)! At first, I felt violated, but then a light bulb went off 💡. They were sharing it because it was valuable. If it was valuable it meant other people needed it too. And the Campaign Starter Kit was born... After burning out from politics and pivoting to a Clarity Coach, people kept asking me to make the Starter Kit available again and to provide coaching and training for their teams. With nearly a dozen mentees on the ballot across the country this November, my calling to help Black womxn run and win the first time has been reignited in ways I can’t put into words. The workbooks and templates will help you: ✅ Get clear about your ideal voter and discover what they really care about ✅ Understand EXACTLY where your voters are and how to reach them ✅ Discover how much money you ACTUALLY need to run your campaign and where you’ll get it from ✅ Get clear about your “why” and develop a compelling story to attract more voters + supporters ✅Develop a masterplan to make sure you’re not wasting valuable time working on the wrong things The Campaign Starter Kit includes: - A comprehensive candidate assessment to help you get clear about exactly what you need to focus on and when - Campaign launch checklist Campaign plan, budget, and finance plan templates (including my actual campaign plan) - Email templates for every email you’ll need to send - Definitive Resource Guide for Candidates - 25 Ways to Build A Badass Team + Delegate Like A Boss - Brand Building for Candidates To help as many candidates and campaigns as possible, I’m offering a relaunch discount of 50% off through Sunday, August 18 at midnight ET (enter coupon code WIN at checkout) Comment/DM “Starter Kit” to get immediate access #campaignstarterkit #runandwin # blackwomxn #rebeccamthompson
After losing my election, I remained in politics, After losing my election, I remained in politics, including running one of Detroit’s largest IE’s for the Clinton campaign in ‘16. I thought I had a plan. Hillary was going to win, I’d travel, and run again in 2018. One day I saw a FB ad that read, “Do you want to travel the world and work remotely?” Hell yes. I applied to Remote Year and within days was paying a deposit to live in 12 countries in 12 months across SE Asia, Europe, and South America. I quietly started to untangle my life. I ended a relationship, began selling everything, and bought a one-way ticket to Kuala Lumpur. After Clinton lost, an escape from America was exactly what my soul needed. Quitting my job was the most liberating experience of my life. I wasn’t just going to be traveling the world. I’d be healing from a year of losses, coming out to the world as queer, and for the first time, I was unencumbered by anyone else’s definition of what it meant to be me. One week after moving to KL, as I came back from my morning hike, I started getting bombarded with messages. So many that at first, I thought someone had died. My opponent was stepping down, suddenly opening up the seat that I narrowly lost just 2 years before. Elected officials were asking me to come home and run in a special election. I sat on my bathroom floor and cried. The one thing I thought I wanted was suddenly available and according to some, the seat was mine. But deep in my soul, I knew the Universe had other plans for me. I knew that my life’s calling was so much bigger than one district and that if I bet on myself again this time, I couldn’t lose. And I was right. I’d go on to live in Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand, and Serbia before coming back to lead one the largest candidate recruitment/training program in the country. Since then, I’ve trained thousands of Black womxn candidates, campaign managers, and operatives and can’t wait to help even more in my brand new FREE Masterclass, “Run and Win The First Time” TONIGHT at 6pm CT/7pm EST. If you’re also on a path of re-inventing yourself as a candidate, campaign manager, or operative, you won’t want to miss this session. Comment/DM “WIN” to claim your spot #runandwin
I still remember it like it was yesterday. I woke I still remember it like it was yesterday. I woke up on the morning of August 5, 2014 to a rainy day in Detroit and a feeling deep in the pit of my stomach that I wasn’t going to win. I was one of the first people to vote at my polling location and I waited. And waited. And the voters were few and far between. I drove to every single polling location and turnout was low. Despite personally knocking on every door 4 times, activating 600+ volunteers, and raising $80k+, I lost by just 6 votes on Election Day.  I went into a deep depression and didn’t get off my couch for 6 months. I re-watched every episode of The Wire (kinda funny how I live in West Baltimore now) and completely checked out of what was happening in the world around me. What I know for sure is that I was SUPPOSED to lose that election.  It would fortify me for fights I couldn’t even see coming, introduce my name to thousands of people across the country, and remind me that I can consistently do hard things. Since then, I’ve helped train, coach, and support candidates, campaigns, and elected officials at every level of the ballot and have had a front-row seat to some of the most exciting races in the country.  Now I’m excited to take everything I’ve learned the hard way and share it with other Black womxn candidates, campaign managers, and operatives on Thursday, August 15 at 7pm ET in my brand new FREE Masterclass, “Run and Win the First Time”. During this session, you’ll get the clarity to discover how to: ✅ Heal your relationship with money and shatter your fundraising goals ✅ Develop a winning campaign plan and field strategy ✅Build a badass team ✅Create a custom roadmap and action plan to help you run and win the first time This is PERFECT for you if: - You are a Black womxn thinking about running for office or are currently a candidate at the state and local level - You’re a campaign manager (or want to become one in the future) - You’re an operative (fundraiser, consultant, strategist, etc). Comment/DM the word “WIN” to claim your spot #runandwin #runforoffice #candidates #campaignmanagers #operatives #rebeccamthompson
I can’t believe it’s been 10 years to the day I can’t believe it’s been 10 years to the day since I ran for state representative! Despite losing by just 6 votes on Election Day (and suffering from the most crippling bout of depression I’ve ever experienced) - I wouldn’t have changed a thing. Without experiencing such profound loss that year there’s no way I’d be able to fully appreciate all the joy and magic of the past few years. What I thought was a “no” was the universe really saying “I have something even better in store for you. Be patient.” Now I’m excited to take everything I’ve learned the hard way and share it with other Black womxn candidates, campaign managers, and operatives on Thursday, August 15 at 7pm ET in my brand new FREE Masterclass, “Run and Win the First Time”.
