Warrior Heart

Ngayi, and welcome to Warrior Heart—a space where courage, resilience, and purpose ignite transformation. I’m Shantelle Thompson, the Barkindji Warrior: proud First Nations woman, 3x world champion, black belt, author, and mother. Warrior Heart was born from my journey of overcoming mental illness, breaking societal narratives, and reclaiming my power to rise as a champion on and off the mats.
Warrior Heart is more than a movement; it’s a way of being. It’s about self-reclamation, honoring our stories, and creating legacies of strength and empowerment. This space is for anyone ready to rise—whether seeking healing, leadership, or purpose. Here, you’ll find powerful storytelling, workshops, cultural connection, and a supportive community to guide you on your path.
We all carry a Warrior Heart within us. Together, we’ll awaken it, reclaim our truth, and rise stronger for ourselves, our families, and our future generations. Your story matters. Your purpose matters. Let’s rise together.
