Dom shares her journey of burnout to blossoming

Dom shares with us her story of how she went from what she thought was living her best life in a super successful business, to witnessing clients pulling out left and right as the pandemic hit and it plummeting her into a state of depression, burnout and turmoil. She walks us through what she did to heal and how she reached out to a coach who helped support her through the inner work that she knew she needed to do.

What to do when the problem is you

Dom talks us through how she came to the tough realization that she was the problem. She was creating a toxic energy at work, and she made the decision to change and start showing up differently by changing her language, changing her sarcasm, and bringing a more positive energy to every conversation or dynamic.

The benefits of psychedelic therapeutics and finding your own healing journey.

When we think of psychedelic therapeutics, our initial impression may be “Oh, so you just got high?” but Dom discusses how it is so much more than that. Every person’s healing journey is different, and it may not work for everyone, but she shares the profound impact it had on her life and how she incorporates it along with other healing methods such as gratitude practice, breathe work, journaling, prayer, and so much more.
