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.

Celebrating Wednesday on a Thursday... Thursday, November 12

I didn't show up for training yesterday, was most definitely in a funk and just really needed to be left alone to digest everything and sort things out.  Showing up for training today meant hugs from Coach Brown and that was nice.  I see him 6 days a week and he's become like family to me.
Yesterday was Happy Ice Cream Wednesday but NOTHING was happy about yesterday and so Double J posed a rain check to me.  Tonight, after training, we headed out for ice cream together.  Training tonight at System was extra hard.  Not only did I train legs but we added sprints to our training together, Double J and my workout.  

System Fitness has a wicked indoor track that goes around all the equipment and so we sprint one lap, jog two, then repeat that for 10 sets.  It's 15 minutes of serious hell.  It's so good it's bad, so bad it's good.
Eating ice cream after such an intense workout defeats all the hard work but in all fairness it was a rain check for a cheat meal that never happened and a cheat meal that happens but only once a week.
...and the cheat makes me soooooooooooooooo happy!!!
