My journey's been, I'm really grateful, it's been wild, and I've gotten to all the places where I've ended up just by doing what my heart told me to do, because somehow my heart was connected to, obviously to the training, to martial arts, kickboxing, Muay Thai, but also to that island lifestyle and surfing.
