However, there was one thing she noticed while living in Australia. At every MMA gym, she had been until she moved to the United States, there were no females competing, no coaches and no training partners.

"I never had female influencers in my life at all until later in my career when I started meeting super strong women, who were trying to pave the way like I was," she said.

"I realised how important it was to find that solidarity in other women."

Jessy found that by having stronger powerful women around her that she was able to grow so she wants to encourage other women to do the same through offering advice or helping them find or create own crew of strong powerful women. 

"It's important to me because I feel like we are always forced to compete against each other in everyday life and if you are constantly fighting people, you never get to grow," she said.

"They say strength in numbers, so the only way to grow is to have a team around you."
