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.

A Different Perspective Now... Tuesday, April 19

After weight training today I headed towards Shoppers Drugmart before getting the subway home.  While on route to the store, I passed by the husband of a friend.  He was with some other woman and they seemed all goggly-eyed over each other.  I didn't want to assume anything after all this isn't Korea, guys have female friends and gals have male friends here, but there were rather cozy looking.  I didn't say hi because he didn't know I knew him.  He also didn't know I've heard my fair share of stories about him and "wondering ways".  As he and the woman passed by me, I glanced at him and gave a little smile to acknowledge our eyes touching.

It used to be that my biggest fear with getting married was the possibility of marrying someone that could cheat on me but then I got married and realized there was something far worse that.
