I absolutely love to box, even though I didn’t start boxing until I was 60 years old. The first time I punched a boxing bag I felt empowered! I thought, “Oh, I like this. I want to learn this sport!”
So I did! Now I box 4-5 days a week.
Before I started to box, the only thing I knew about boxing was what I saw in the Rocky or Creed movies, which was pretty scary to me! What I didn't realize was that boxing is really about discipline, focus, and strategy, not just throwing punches. It's an amazing sport that is not well understood.
How did Piper's story come to be?
I wondered, What if I had started to box when I was younger, say 8 or 9? I probably would have been so much stronger, both mentally and physically. I would have had much more confidence in myself.
I started to think about how I wanted kids, especially little girls, to know that boxing is a great sport for them to try. I thought, "Why don't I tell them?"
Then...ding, ding, ding! The idea for ‘Piper’s Perfect Pick’ came to me.
Learning to box has been my inspiration for Piper's story!
Here I am with my boxing buddies on my 65th birthday. Age is just a number!
Piper's Perfect Pick in Real Life
My rescue cat, Camelot, was the inspiration for Piper's cat, Tater Tot. Before Cami got comfortable living with me, he would swat at my face whenever I walked by. I called him my little boxer!
