As the story has it, one day I headed to the opposite side of the globe – the Flipside. I arrived in Korea February 16th, 2005 and thought I’d do a year, then leave. I was wrong. I stayed, launched my first company, Flipside Fitness, and then opened Korea's largest boxing club, Hulk's Boxing (now called Hulk's Club).

After 11.5yrs in Korea, I then picked up one day and returned to Toronto, Canada. But then I left again.

Now I live in the Philippines where I am the CEO and head coach of Empowered Clubhouse, the Philippines' first and only boxing clubhouse exclusively just for women. I also am the founder of the Lil' Sistas Project, CEO and designer of Slay Gear and Baa Baa Black Sheep .Ph.

Highlights of My Day...Monday July 18

1. Finally stopped discovering mud in my ears today.
2. Highly anticipated pants came in only for me to rip the pocket when I first tried them on.
3. Fasinated my kindergarten students with competing for the biggest sore....I won with my mud wrestling abused legs.
4. Had another dance off with Britney Spears and her "Greatest Hits" before going to the gym.
5. Saw first hand how nasty I could be to another person when they push the wrong buttons!!!
6. Got called "sexy" by a Korean for the first time....and it was right in front of his wife, we're friends though so it's all good.
7. Got treated to a great evening out by some friends and questioned why I'd ever want to leave the beautiful people in this country!
8. Was so relieved that we went to one of the only resturants in Korea where you don't sit on the floor cause, shortly after leaving my house, I discovered a hole in my pants!
9. Spent the whole evening joking around with Korean friends about how funny their English sounds.
10. Got asked if I was American by the waiter and I almost freaked out on him for it.
