My husband of 49 yrs passed Easter Sunday. It has been the hardest time of my life. I thank God that I have my two children. Gary would be so proud of how we have helped one another through this sorrow.

As someone who has not seen her beloved daughter and 3 grandchildren in 4 years, I can sympathize with you. My downs come out of nowhere. I do still have my husband but he is not a talker and not much help. I’m 72 and need my family. I have learned to just keep my mouth shut and endure. God bless you, Dominique. I pray things come up quickly for you. Be so, so, so thankful you still have your Momma. I miss mine so much.

You are such an inspiration to many. My marriage ended in 2009 and I lost my beloved special needs daughter age 26 4 months later. I had to take on a more challenging position to make ends meet and then at the beginning of 2011 I lost my precious son also aged 26. My world caved in and I couldn't see the light but i had to press on. Fast forward, I am taking care of my elderly parents and taken early retirement in order to do so resulting in downscaling and a huge lifestyle change. My belief is that it is only with my faith I have got this far and it will carry me one day at a time. God bless you and remember we are warriors ... draw on your faith and inner strength

We need to allow other people to help us. They do rise up to the occasion and they need to do it. I remember my mom used to tell me, ‘in order to be a good Christian you need to be able to gracefully receive, not just give.’. Let people help us. God bless you in this next chapter.

The value in being able to enjoy just being in the moment without guilt if not being productive is huge. I retired and within about a year my 35 year marriage fell apart (I was completely unprepared and the full got pulled out) - my friends and family were the most supportive and wonderful support. I moved to a smaller condo that was all mine, did some sub work at my old job and was feeling productive again - then the pandemic and we all isolated and being active and engaged was a challenge. Now in this moment, I enjoy time just cuddling with my pup, watching tv or KZread, reading ,puttering in the garden, and just enjoying this new journey. Housework will always wait and I am working at not feel guilty if I give my pup a few extra cuddles, or get some serendipitous time with my adult children. I never want to look back and wish I had spend less time keeping the perfect house while forfeiting time with family and friends - and time just with myself and being serene and comfortable in that time

A woman a long time ago gave me this advice: Let yourself Cry out loud and often, as often as you feel it. Don’t hold emotion back. I too thought I had to always be so strong. I followed her advice and it got me through a very painful time more than once. Love to you.

Dear Dominique You've been a great help to me over the last five or so years and I'm sorry, although not surprised, you've hit a rough spot this week. I went through something unexpected and similar a decade ago when it was in my late 50s and it's taken pain and time to emerge whole and happy. You already know the most important thing: No matter the trauma and pain, you, like me, will emerge happier, healthier, kinder and wiser than I was before and my life is full and richer than ever. Embrace the adventure and live your life with beauty and boldness. I wouldn't give up my journey and the personal growth the unhappy end of my marriage brought me for anything. It's an odd blessing but a sweet one. Hugs Brenda

There are not enough hours in the day to tackle all of it. My husband passed away Four years ago. I understand struggle and grief. I pray that god give you the strength to manage your life. I am fine I get excited to tackle my challenges. I feel god has given me a lot to deal with and I am not going to disappoint him. I hope you can be happy and find that peace with in yourself.

Sometimes we all need to have a “come apart” as a friend told me. A good cry can be cathartic so if you need it, do it. God knows what you need and what’s in your heart. His answers may not be what you ask him for or what you think you need, but rest assured he has a plan for you and it is the perfect plan. Many prayers 🙏

Life is very challenging at most times but I always have this beautifull quote in my head and it makes me feel so much better.. So today, I like to share it with this family… The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen." ―Elisabeth Kübler-Ross

I have been there. I can remember at one of my most challenging times in life driving my car and just sobbing, asking God "why did this happen?" I was so lost and over whelmed with grief. Over time i was ble to understad the situation and why things happened as they did but by reaching out to God and pouring out my hurt and my soul, God surrounded me with family and friends to get me through. Bless you Dominique and keep the faith that God will get you through this difficult time.

I heard in meditation this, "stop resisting, pray with the pain." What a relief, being given permission to just be. In the gift of pain, there is peace.

Hi Dominique, I am not saying anything this week, but I am giving You a listening ear. You have given us (Your Listeners) so much, we are here for you, we love you, we’ve got you, and we will be praying that God will provide all the help that you need. Trust me, we get it, like you’ve said, you are not alone. Robin

We all want to be seen, heard and understood, but as we get older, we get less and less of what we need from society. I no longer feel the need to be understood, I feel like I understand myself pretty well and that's good enough. Besides, no other human can really understand me anyway, it's impossible, they haven't walked in my shoes. That's ok. I still like to be seen but am working on being ok if and when society deems me invisible which happens to old people, which is where we are all headed. Being heard is probably something that we can continue to do through writing, vlogging, making comments on social media like this comment right now. I wish you all the best, and just know, the storm cloud will pass and the sun will shine again.

May our heavenly Father continue to grant you the strength & wisdom for all of life's challenges.

Dominique, I know all too well, how difficult life can get at times. My husband died unexpectedly two years ago and it has taken a lot out of me. Sadness, fear, loneliness, worry, and so many other emotions that come along with losing a spouse. He was only 60 years old. I’ve gone back to work, to keep busy and to get my mind off of things. It’s difficult, but like you, I know that God, family and friends will help me get thru this….they are. I wish you much love, happiness and peace. We are going to be okay! Stay strong beautiful lady. Things will get better. Gods got this! 🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️

Hello Dominique! I feel very blessed to have stumbled upon you while scrolling through You Tube videos year back. I feel like our time together has been an evolution for sure! One of the things that you said in this video is something I feel compelled to respond to. You mentioned that we (your followers) expect transparency and honesty from you. No we do not. We treasure your transparency and honesty and see it as a bold courageous gift. To be so vulnerable in such a public way in order for others not to feel alone takes a lot of strength. It's selfless really. My personal trials (2016 was a particularly sucky year) have often found myself not wanting to burden others as you shared. But that is the worst thing you can do. By putting yourself out here you allow us to embrace your humanness and have faith that if we allow others to see past our public persona that they to might just care for us. Someone once said be bold be blessed....good words to live by. Thank you. And hugs!

This hits home truly hard. So much change and transformation, accelerating each year. Dominique so glad you skipped the magnetic eye this time as many of us were craving for this talk. You got this girl, take care and God bless you 💜

You are so incredibly brave to speak with such honesty, so many of us are feeling the same… but it takes massive guts to say it out loud for us all to hear. I’m so sorry you are having a hard time/week, but this too shall pass. You are strong for so many, just be kind to yourself. Xx

Years ago, one of my nursing instructors shared something so profound with my class. She said “The only thing that remains the same is CHANGE.” I really didn’t realize how true that statement was until years later. In the bad times, just knowing that things are going to change gives us hope. Hang in there my friend. Prayers lifted. Melissa 🍁

Totally agree! The one thing you can count on is that things will change! 💗

So sorry that you’re having a sad time and feeling altogether overloaded, you’ll get through, you’re a strong, capable and intelligent woman.. love and hugs this early morning from Australia. 💖

Thank you for this video, it was so heartfelt. We all go through tough times and sometimes forget that there are other people feeling the same way as we feel. You are blessing to all of us!

I was having a bad week last week and this week! Been there. I went to High school with you but was as shy as I am tall. But you influenced me in Ms. B’s art class. So happy for you and all you have accomplished! You told me my name sounded like royalty and I shot up 20 feet tall. Stay lifted up! You have a great spirit! Much continued success!

Dominique, thank you for sharing your feelings and sadness. You remind us that even the strongest people can get to breaking points. Lean on your support system, focus on all that you have to be thankful for, and hang in there as there are better days coming soon!

This video is so appropriate for me right now who is recently separated. Learning to be alone is hard sometimes. Feels like your pep talk is directed straight to me…very eerie in some ways.

When I have hard times like the one you share I think: "This is what means "To live"...when you FEEL (no matter is painful) it means you're ALIVE!! Embrace it and by the time everything gets in place you'll be stronger...mentally, phisically and spiritually!!!

Dominque this was such an encouraging word that you’ve shared with us, thank you! As a believer myself this scripture is what I have posted on my refrigerator. These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In this world you WILL have tribulation, but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world- John 16:33 ❤️

This is what I needed most desperately. Knowing scripture by heart is truly invaluable but having His word, the passages that we neglect to be brought before us. Especially when we are in the midst of being "crushed on all sides" "These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In this world you WILL have tribulation, but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world"- John 16:33 The tribulation can feel almost deadly I the despair, angst, searching for God to soothe our aching heart, calm our minds, tend to our wounds. We, like Dominique know all the right cheers to chant mid game. But to be reminding that we WILL have tribulation - an that to me means, whether I am doing everything correctly or not...tribulation WILL COMEand that I can "be of Good Cheer" for one reason alone. This world brings angst, pain, treachery, but HE has OVERCOME the World, HE is with Me an with YOU and we can actually "have peace" in that. Even when, ESPECIALLY when it seem impossible.

Boy, can I relate! I just turned 75 and as if that wasn't enough to give me pause, I have had one of the worst months of my life. I have been feeling very much as you have been feeling but also realizing how so many of the people whom I have been there for are just not there for me when I stumble. While I don't necessarily need to turn my back on my fair-weather friends, I realize I need to look for more support and more positive and encouraging friends. I allowed myself to hear the kind words of your friend, as if she had spoken them to me, and it helped. I so admire your candor, because it would be easy for you to present yourself as flawless and without fear or limitations. When you talk about your difficult times it does make me feel less alone - I think, "See, even Dominique has bad days!" Oddly, I had been fooling around with magnetic lashes I bought some time ago and watching your old lash videos and I was about to give up and just throw them away. So I am looking forward to the magnetic lash video, but definitely needed the video from today. As always, thank you for being an inspiration and a positive role model - and for looking beautiful while you do it!

You are so inspiring and truthful. We all want everyone to see the happy side of everything in life and sometimes you just gotta let it all out. I did that a few montgs ago. Was all too much. Had the biggest cry..., felt sorry for myself, cried for all the mistakes i have made. My best friend listened to me and got me through it. Thank god for friends Dominique. I look at you with such praise and i just wanted to give you a big aussie hug x

Thank you for sharing🙏 - your integrity and dignity really shine through - listening to you share it’s ok to feel sad, has helped me today weep for all the recent things that have gone on in my life, my life is a on a rollercoaster of life changes and challenges at the moment and I struggle with constant busyness and last week I’ve just had to calm down and hear my body’s need to weep and not hold it all down; that it’s ok to cry and feel vulnerable, that I’m ok to feel not ok and it’s all going to be ok to weep it out - thank you 🙏

3 months ago, we separated after 39 years of marriage...It's been tough. Thank you Dominique for your words, and for sharing not just the good (which is always brilliant) but also the true and the sad moments. We're all blessed in some way, no matter what.

Dominique, the power of prayer is the strongest bond I've formed in my adult life. I'm sorry that you had an emotionally draining week, but what a blessing you are for sharing it ❤️ I think all of us feel.alone at times and burdened by life's ups and downs. I will continue to lift you in prayer, and hope that these burdens will lighten for you. May your joy come in the morning

It's amazing how you share so much of yourself even during tough times to help others. So many of us, including myself, have been divorced women moving through many life obstacles whether emotional, financial or otherwise. I've found myself as well, making sure to "Pivot" my thoughts to all the blessed things in my life when I feel like I'm hitting a wall of no return in life. Focusing on being grateful for something pulls one out of the tornado of negativity we all fall victim too. Thank you again. You are a beautiful, loving soul that shares so much for all. Sending you blessings, you will pull through. ALWAYS REMEMBER, "THE RAINBOW NEVER APPEARS UNTIL AFTER THE STORM"....

Dominique, please know you don't need to be perfect for us. Thank you for your honesty and transparency with sharing your life and your faith as you take each day one by one. Your sharing is inspiring to each of us struggling with our own challenges.

Remember…..”Don’t set yourself on fire to keep other people warm” So hard for women like us that are gifted with lifting other people up….that’s our pure joy. However, we often suppress our despair at times so that others won’t hurt for us the way we hurt for others and want to make everything all right for those we care about. Brokenness blossoms into cleansing then finally joy again. Let it take its course…..you can and will push through

Dear Dominique, thank you for opening up to the people who followed you, my name is Elizabeth and I am Hispanic, I want to tell you that what seems to be bad is not, since in each season of our lives we learn and go through situations that they make us see life from a different perspective and teach us things that we would never have experienced if we did not go through that passage. In my case I am going through something similar, my husband fell with someone younger than me, and I have felt abandoned and despised and worthless, until I realized that he was my mirror and it was me, I had abandoned myself and there are many ways of abandoning to ourselves, just as I also gave my value to him and it was me who despised myself , so it is a new beginning where it makes us stronger, and we can do everything in God who strengthens us, do not forget, do not fear and HE is faithful, a big hug to distance.

The best advice my dearest mother gave me many many years ago that has helped me through life when I thought I could not go on is " God only gives you crosses he knows you can bear" I can still hear my dearest mothers voice saying these words and somehow they have helped me pull through. I hope they can be comfort to you. My mother passes away 27 years ago and never got a chance to see my only child. But I know somehow through my belief in God she is by my side and I am not alone. She so desperately wanted to hear the news she would be a grandma but it came 2 years after her passing. Not a day goes by I don't think of her and my father. Stay strong and God is with you 🙏🌸💗

Music gets me through the ups and the downs more than anything besides my faith. When I'm in my car, I turn it up and I sing! It has been my go-to for my entire life. Even at 4 yrs. old, I remember loving music so much that I would beg my mother not to turn the car off until the song was over. I just lost one of my best friends from the time we were 15 she was the new girl in school and feeling lost, we had to partner up in our physical education class, so I turned to her and asked if she would like to be my partner. She never forgot that. She had a very rough life and she and her brother both became alcoholics and passed away within one week of one another. She literally drank herself to death. They played her favorite song at the funeral. She loved music too. It was amazing how it lifted us up when that song came on. I'm just saying that music is sometimes can be a lifesaver. It didn't save hers but it got her through rough times. I hope this helps someone.

We've never been close or gotten along very well, needless to say, things are definitely not any better now. This is the hardest thing I've ever had to do, expect for burying my daughter this past June. She suffered from breast cancer for 3 years and finally lost the fight. So...what a year it's been. At this point I can't see light at the end of the tunnel, although I know it has to be there. We have a son, daughter in law and granddaughter who lives very close and they are so much a part of what is keeping me going. I have two other beautiful grandchildren from my daughter, I'm going to work very hard to stay as close to as I can. Lots of sad days, but lots of good days too.

Thank you for your honesty 🙏 I feel exactly the same, but now a little less lost & lonely. I wish all the best to you, Dominique 🌹

It’s so good to open up to friends, family or even to the world. Yes, I’m going through a lot of struggles in my personal life so watching this helped me remember that everybody has their own struggles. Today has been a crappy day too for me but I’m telling myself it’s just one day. Today will come and go and will be a thing of the past. Make tomorrow along with myself a better one. We can choose to do what we want for ourselves. We’re not living for anybody else but ourselves. Why not try to live it your best no matter what tries to tear you down? Plan A didn’t work now on to Plan B and so on. Take that control because we do have that power to make our own life, this one life how we want.

She fully recovered, but I live with her right now. I never thought at my age and with two college degrees this is where I would be in my life. With the help of my therapist, I'm taking one day at a time and seeing the gratitude in my life.

I have been where you are. I had to use the advise I gave my children when they would come home from school, complaining about what this kid did or that teacher did. I made them sit down and tell me one good thing that happened in their day. That moment made all the difference in their perspective of how they day actually went. I began to do that as well, and as time went by, the good moments began to take over the bad. My life has changed in so many beautiful and wonderful ways that I am truly blessed by the struggles of the past. It made me appreciate the blessings of today.

Thank you for sharing your authentic beautiful self. Everyone goes through turbulent times at some point in our lives. What got me through 9 years of craziness was a lot of tears, talking to my friends and a therapist that worked on a sliding scale and knowing that troubled times do not last. It's like a wave in the ocean that you must ride knowing knowing that it won't last forever. Stay in gratitude with the blessings that still surround you each day. We do come out of it a much stronger person.

Hi. Dominique Thank you forv sharing. Your expression of faith, in times like these, was a reminder to me... You see. I had been diagnosed with cancer when it was already stage 4 b (out of c) and it had already metasticisized. I took the attitude that "I am not dieing of cancer. I am LIVING with cancer." I have since found that it is inoperable and I lost myself in self pity. It was as if my faith were failing me, which made me feel even worse. Your sharing of your faith has helped me to remember...nothing. has changed and certainly not God. He still has a plan for me. He still knows what's best for me and I, most certainly, am still LIVING with cancer. Every day is more precious and I get to be alive for it. I don't need to know for how long, as long as I see the beauty of each day, separately. YOU are a blessing. Thank you You, too, are already ok,, because you LIVE in the Lord's hands. : )

You are a blessing as well whatever God has planned for you! Love and prayers for you from Canada!

Thank you, Dominique, for sharing this. A wise counselor once said to me, “What’s in the way IS the way.” It is true!

Thank you Dominique, you’re an inspiration, you have been for me for over a year since I found your videos. I appreciate your honesty the most. May God continue to bless you and use you 🙏🏼💝

Thank you Dominique for being so open and honest. Today, in doing so, you were my gift as I needed uplifting. Your words and emotion resonated. Thank you for helping me see another way of approaching my personal struggles. I wish you strength.
