Power punch

Executive: Mary Dougherty-Slapp, executive director of the Gulf Coast Builders Exchange. Dougherty-Slapp runs the day-to-day operations of the organization, and is also a prominent statewide construction and building industry voice.

Diversion: Boxing training classes and one-on-one sessions at Jaco's Boxing and Fitness in Sarasota. Dougherty-Slapp works primarily with Kelli Jaco, who runs the business with her husband, Adam Jaco. Kelli Jaco was an All-American swimmer at Boston University and a professional triathlete for Scott bicycles after college.

Take care: Dougherty-Slapp helps care for her brother, John Robinson, a retired police officer from Long Island, N.Y., with heart disease. Robinson, 67, lives with Dougherty-Slapp. While Dougherty-Slapp is happy, and proud, to care for her sibling, something her doctor told her recently resonated. The physician told Dougherty-Slapp he's seen it many times before, when a caretaker for others neglects to take care of herself. That's big motivation for Dougherty-Slapp.
