Now I see that being an immigrant helps me understand people and has contributed to my success. I now run two fitness businesses that combined have made over $70 million.
I wanted to be like the girls at school, but then I'd come home and be told to dress and act differently... you have to encourage people to be proud rather than suppress it.
My mom was exceptionally hardworking, and I had a lot of tough parenting. But it taught me that you have to work really hard for what you want, and you can't give up.
It's ironic, given that I now run two fitness businesses and my main passion is getting women into strength training. I hated PE at school.
