This unique brand was created for girls and women who are tough enough to “play hard” while still embracing their femininity! History of Too Pretty? Cary was told on numerous occasions that was “Too Pretty” to be a boxer. Really? Since when is it OK to base someone’s abilities on their appearance?Cary has worked with hundreds of young girls teaching them boxing, but the biggest lessons they have learned from Cary is that they can be strong, smart and successful without sacrificing their femininity. Her work with young women got her recognized by The California Legislature along with Brandi Chastain and several other women in sports, for her contribution and impact on girls’ sports.Now, the brand has caught the eyes of other young girls and women who are doing “non-traditional” activities.This goal is to empower young girls and women and to encourage them to believe that they can do anything they set their mind to; even stuff that boys do!Too Pretty’s social media platforms have started to grow and the #nevertoopretty movement is a big part of the brand. The campaign started over a year ago on Instagram. Girls and women are posting a black and white photo of them holding a cardboard sign on which they have written what they are Never Too Pretty to do or be and explain what it means to them. Now it has turned into a project that includes Too Pretty Ambassadors. Different events that are held around the globe will include the campaign live instead of virtually. Each event adds a learning clinic with the activity being the specialty of the ambassador.Cary has been featured on NBC, CBS, ABC and FOX as well as in national publications such as Shape, Energy, Fitness, Entrepreneur, Inc., FHM, USA Today and The New York Times. Cary has even graced the cover of Muscle & Fitness HERS and appeared on the popular NBC show, Fear Factor as well as on Bravo’s Million Dollar Listing and is currently shooting for a show called Fit 2 Fat 2 Fit on A&E network.In the boxing world, Cary boxed competitively in the amateurs and won the Pacific Northwest Women’s Tournament before hanging up her gloves. She is now a Level IV Olympic Level Boxing Coach with USA Boxing. Cary has trained many boxers, some of which have made it to Olympic Trial Qualifying Tournaments. Cary caught the attention of many when she trained and cornered a female boxer for 3 Olympic Qualifying tournaments. All done without the help of an assistant coach in the corner for each fight. Cary co-created and co-hosted “Boxing 101” Boxing Camp Workout and “Additional Fundamentals”, unique boxing instructional and workout DVDs.As a spokesperson for Everlast, Cary created a boxing class format for 24 Hour group fitness called Everlast ShadowBox and was a part of several print ad campaigns for EverlastCary founded the “Knocking Out Obesity” tour which stopped at 10 of the “fattest” cities in the nation (according to Men’s Fitness). Cary conducted non-contact boxing workouts with students at 10 middle schools in the nation. In the beginning, she founded PRIME TIME BOXING, INC. in 1998 and also created Prime Time Boxing Club, a non-profit organization that offers scholarship programs to pay for the training, equipment and travel expense of disadvantaged children. She grew PRIME TIME BOXING, INC to a chain of boxing clubs and franchised the concept in 2007. Cary has since sold her clubs in California, and now owns The Stables in Santa Monica, CA where Cary resides.About the show:►Website: http://www.ashsaidit.com►For $5 in ride credit, download the Lyft app using my referral link: https://www.lyft.com/ici/ASH584216► Visit http://www.pinnertest.com and use Promo Code: ashsaidit►Become A Podcast Legend: http://ashsaidit.podcastersmastery.zaxaa.com/s/6543767021305►Review Us: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/ash-said-it/id1144197789►SUBSCRIBE HERE: http://www.youtube.com/c/AshSaidItSuwanee►Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/1loveash►Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ashsaidit►Twitter: https://twitter.com/1loveAsh►Google Plus: https://plus.google.com/u/0/+AshSaidItMedia►Blog: http://www.ashsaidit.com/blog►Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/1LoveAsh/►Newsletter: http://ashsaidit.us11.list-manage1.com/subscribe?u=2a2ca3b799467f125b53863c8&id=a6f43cd472►Casper Commercial Music Courtesy of http://www.BenSound.com#atlanta #ashsaidit #ashsaidthat #ashblogsit #ashsaidit®Ash Brown is a gifted American producer, blogger, speaker, media personality and event emcee.
