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.

Officially Offline Till Saturday... Sunday, March 3

It's been a fabulous day, seriously nothing short of super duper, in-your-face, over-the-rim fabulous but now I'm officially going offline and am turning my phone off.  I was hesitate as to whether or not I was still going to do this because of the great day I had, awesome friends I was surrounded by, and super sweet new friends I had made, but I'm still going to do this.

So despite my second-thinking, I'm officially disconnecting and will be back on Saturday.  

I just really want to be consumed with my own thoughts and I really need them to be business-focused and goal-oriented.  I had actually put it on my 2013 Bucketlist -- no cell phone for one week and a week of no Internet.  They were two separate items on my list but I'm going to do them both this week.  I just need to really lose myself in my work, bury my head in it and limit my distractions.  

Having said this, I'm ending my Internet action by posting this homepage entry.  It will be my last entry until this Saturday.  I just sent out my last email too, it was to Adidas.  It was a biggie and I anticipate them trying to contact me -- gave them Snickers' number.  He'll deal with them.  My email now has a "on vacation" automatic response, I posted a notice on Facebook, and now I'm giving my notice on my homepage. 

I am officially out of here -- out of touch, offline and out of tune with all you here in Cyper space.  

I'll be back on Saturday.
