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.

Taking a Breather... Thursday, July 25

After coaching my fighters today I decided to take the day off training and get in some family time. I headed out of the city to celebrate a family member's birthday party and was greeted with lots of family and lots of food. 

Just really craving a disconnection lately, not particularly from work but from everything.

My brain just never stops and it's working on overtime.  It hurts.  Literally, it hurts.  

I sport headaches on the daily which is weird because I never used to.  I pride myself for always pushing myself to extremes with not only my training but also my business, my career, but lately my head hurts on the daily.  I used to think it was because of a lack of food.  Then I thought perhaps it was because of too much coffee.  Now I think it's just because of me really wanting to push my company to the next level.  

I really need to hire an assistant, like someone to do my social media.

I haven't done a Vlog in about a month.  I'm not a fan of editing them so I haven't done one. 

I'm cool with snapping pictures for Instagram but to sit there and think of the caption or even bother about making sure I get in a good shot,... exhausting.  

So many random jobs I've taken upon myself to do plus getting in my boxing, rugby and weights... yeah, it's a lot.  I wake up every morning with anxiety, pondering the ever-growing long list of things I have to do that day and then I go to be completely exhausted from trying to conquer it.  

So tonight I just stopped everything and went out for dinner.
