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.

It's hard for me to feel sorry for people who lean on the excuse "But I don't have time to exercise or worry about my health". I'm constantly having to juggle my own training with training my personal training clients, leading my boxercise classes and taking on a new full time job. I'm also trying to squeeze in running too, now that I've got a half marathon coming up. My problem isn't so much the time, it's the energy. Well, that and keeping up with probably fueling my body so that I can be so physically active!!!

Health isn't just about exercising. It's about eating clean, getting enough sleep and being physically active. I don't think time is people's problem though. I think it's knowing where to start, finding the drive and motivation to continue, and wanting it bad enough.


And I think a lot of people think it's hard than it actually is.
