Q&A with Dominique Sachse | Let’s Get Personal | Life, Beauty, Wellness, Advice for Women Over 40+

[@Nina-ev4xl]

I remember one morning getting ready for a job interview shortly after my husband and I separated..... I looked in the mirror and I said to myself "There you are " .... it's been a while since I,ve seen you." At that point I knew I was finding myself again. That was a profound moment for me and knowing I'd have the strength to move on. I knew I had to for me and my children.'.... and I did. Thank you for sharing your words of life ...It's like having coffee with a friend

I love every bit of you. I see myself in you… in 2018 (blended family) my 2nd husband literally packed up his RV and drove away and had me served. In all fairness our life was just not working for anyone through the feeling of being rejected was so incredibly painful. I used the time to “get myself together” dropping 30 pounds and learning how to do make up and hair and all the things I love doing when I was in high school. I 55 a start of my life over. I bought my husband out of our family home and I have been making it on my own since that time… I love learning how to maintain my house and have numerous hobbies and yes a new boyfriend. You spoke about needing connection. Today I have a wonderful connection with him and my two sons. God does for us what we couldn’t do for ourselves… You are blessed… And yes you are bold… I know that you know that. I love you Dominique. Thank you for being YOU. Thank you for sharing yourself with all of us. I love learning from you. XO

[@disinfran]

i really liked that you were asked and talked about being alone, staying alone for a bigger time period. I don't think it is talked about enough how powerful and great this time can be. I think a lot of people are really scared to be alone, but there is a lot to learn once you get together with yourself. I left home when I was 18, move to a different country with no relatives and friends, had no boyfriend, moved to a different language, different culture and I was not even a proper adult, and I am very proud of myself and I know I am strong, creative and can survive and thrive without any outside help! Whoever is reading this or needing this: you can do it, you are stronger than you think, and it will teach you, and you'll be better! Trust the process!

[@elizabethharrell8707]

I have always liked being alone, not lonely at all...some people think it is reclusive or even stuck up. My husband understands I need alone time and it is not a reflection on him, its how I recharge. I come from a family of 7 so being alone was hard to do. I love how you are progressing through this upheaval in your life with such grace and the ability to share with us as well. Love that you are loving your life !

[@lkreyche]

I relate very much to your assessment of being newly single and appreciating having your own space, time, music, food in the fridge. Even when I was married, I used to say I really wanted my own apartment. I promised I would show up every morning and take care of the kids! I promised to do all the wifely things, I just wanted my own space so much. It made my husband laugh, but honestly, I really wasn't kidding. I think a lot of women want to retain ownership of their own lives on some level, acknowledge their own selves and what they love, I'm sure I'm not saying this right. But that resonated with me. I look forward to your book!

Learned to cherish that time, found out who I was, became immersed in my faith.

It was hard at times, but was totally worth it.

I had a direction till the pandemic hit, but I'm still going forward knowing what I'm meant to do will come in at the right time. Source (God), whatever you call it, is always listening.

In listening to your comments on hair and “hair trauma, made me smile. I have never wanted short hair, even though I love your hair style and realize how much time it would save in my daily hair schedule. MY Mother always kept my hair short because I was one of 5 children and she was always so busy that short hair was so much easier for her. I remember saying to myself that when I was old enough to take care of my hair myself, I was going to let it grow! I had waist length hair in my teens, and now could never think of cutting shorter than just above the shoulder. It is exactly as you said, - HAIR TRAUMA!

It really is something how things fall into place when you listen to that "little voice" inside. I've had two very specific times in my life where, looking back, I'm just amazed at how things worked out because I took a leap (against what I absolutely would have chosen for myself) and trusted in the Lord. The most recent time was this past fall. I couldn't see the reason then, but I do now. As you said - it started with a small "stirring" that got louder and more frequent as time went on. I eventually couldn't ignore it anymore, and I'm so thankful.

Listen to your heart, do not sabotage your dreams & aspirations because of fear. I am 72,and was an avid traveller up until COVID hit us bad 2 yrs ago up here in Quebec. This past February I had booked an art workshop before the Ukraine crises and our 6th wave. I felt pangs of guilt and mixed feelings about going to France. I was up last night googling car rentals and hotels for an extended stay. My friends think I’m bordering on foolishness and bravery. I just feel I have to get out of town and paint poppies.

When someone asks you how you deal with being alone the 1st thing that popped into my head was she has to be an only child. I've never heard you talk about a sibling and being an only child myself, I know being alone is not a tragedy. We were an AF couple when we first married and when the guys were gone for over 3 months, I was the only wife that didn't have to have something going on all the time.

Out of everything that you discussed today, the most beautiful touching moment is when you said you get your light from God! That is the truest statement you could ever make, and, as you know, God is watching over you!!! We are blessed to have u bring light to us! Thank u Gid for shining thru her to us all! PS….know all about Sculptra! Can’t wait to see your video.

You are so blessed with beauty. Thanks for all your advice 💗

How inspiring, thank you. I'm about to start an astrocoach training at 46, after 25 years of being a French tutor. I can't wait!! Yes, life is too short, I want to do what I love.

[@makeupdarling6171]

What a lovely Q&A session! It’s nice to see and hear you’re doing well, Dominique. This is a new chapter in your life with many wonderful things to come. (I can relate to your situation having been on the same boat a couple of years ago.) The best is truly yet to come. ☺️

[@leoniethomas1954]

Hi dominique I have only discovered you videos...l'm also from Australia. Do you use organic makeup? Also someone said that you wrote a book, l look forward to hearing more videos Also glad to hear that you still go on dates with your husband x

[@rosacuore15]

Dominique 🤗💖💐 “..that voice, is the reason why..” I felt the same for past three years and I haven’t had listening to it, until I have reached the end point of, enough; I am done with it, in spite of the costs that came with exhaustion and burned out. Thank God, I have decided to resist the pain, even if wasn’t the right time, but in all the troubles I have discovered myself of what/ where and when I have to decide how to change the course, before it would have killed the best part of myself; strength and belief. Thank you 🙏

[@tonigoldman10]

Dominique, that has to be one of the best videos you've ever done on this platform. Great words of wisdom. Can't wait to read your book!!!!!

[@deidrekelloggketroser5573]

I need that book!!! Since the unexpected death of my husband/soulmate, I have been lost. A fear of success and a fear of failure leaves one stuck. I wish my mom had raised me the way your mother raised you…I lack self esteem big time.

[@luciwilliams7123]

Just ordered! I love watching you. You encourage me to be a better version of myself. Thank you for being authentic, gracious and excellent. 💖

[@Cherylforino]

Dominique you are such an uplifting soul!! I admire your independence, strength, and most of all, your vulnerability. I feel so inspired by you. Whether it’s meditating on a career/life change or just a boost I needed to stick to a night time beauty routine, I so appreciate you as a woman. Thank you for sharing “you” with us. I can’t wait to read your book. 💜

[@RanalynnNaipo]

I always appreciate how your at ease when answering some of our questions. Thank you for being so transparent with your subscribers and fans. Will the audio version be available on the same day as the book launch? I would love to listen to it as well while I go on my afternoon walk’s. Have you thought of doing more life vlogs during your monthly video uploads. I’m so glad you always bring up self care and Gods love in your life. Since the pandemic 😷 I have re-evaluated my life. Less make up and more time for myself. While my son is going through his chemotherapy treatment it’s added a layer of redefining moment in my life. But I was able to gravitate toward God and re engage and adapt to the new normal while being a care giver. Can’t wait for the book Dominique. Stay fabulous and enjoy your day. Aloha from Hawaii.

[@tatianamoses950]

You and I think alike. I’m a care giver for my son. It’s a tough journey. But I believe that God has a plan. And that plan and difficulties in life is what shapes us. This too will pass as my mom always told me and she is right. Prayers for your son.

[@judithgill4772]

God bless you!

[@martydavis325]

I am also an only child and can relate to enjoying time alone. I used to think there was something wrong with me for not wanting to have people around me all the time. Not that I don’t like meeting up with my friends for lunch, shopping, etc., but I certainly have no problem with time to myself. You just confirmed that it’s ok! Your videos have always touched on topics that matter to us as women and now this book will give us more! This is an exciting time! So blessed to be apart of this community…thank you for having a vision and following thru with it…you have made a difference!

[@charleneharris4581]

I am watching your latest Q & A and just seeing you look so at ease and relaxed you are very calming force! I am glad you are in the phase of your life where you are able to have quiet and peace while raising a teenager and caregiving for your Mom! This looks good on you! Honesty with your life is what leads to peace, I have no questions for you, just know your calming demeanor is appreciated! I’m going to order that book too!

[@kristinemalik4600]

I loved the advice at the end! Don't let fear keep you where you are, take action and move forward. Thanks, Dominique!

[@lynnettelg]

My book arrived! Yay! So excited for you!

[@MicheleLT]

Dominique! I love your Q&A video! I pre-ordered your book and look forward to learn more about you and use your book as an additional tool in my box towards personal growth and transformation! One of the questions posed to you was about your future goals. 1 of many things which resonate for me when I watch your videos is your passion for yoga and living a healthy lifestyle. Those passions along with your soothing, calm voice I can see you leading yoga classes! I could listen to a guided meditation by you daily! Sending you lots of love and continued peace in your heart! You are shining bright! 🧘‍♀️ ☀️🙏💖

[@sharonhannah9638]

Just excellent advice Dominique especially the very last question, I have been torn about leaving my employment that I have been at for 38 years, it does not serve me anymore…I am retiring from there, but I am not retiring looking at new possibilities for my future…thank you so much! Xoxo

[@cindygraham7871]

You epitomize one hand on the wheel while living not ruled by fear. Thank you for articulately sharing your story, stories that come from experience and a life lived well.

[@kasiai5437]

As always, thank you Dominique! So many great resources, I took a bunch of notes :) I can't echo enough that the best gift to give kids is teaching them critical thinking and life skills. Much gratitude, health and love to you and yours!

[@claudiap7698]

Thanks, Dominique. Your videos always feel as if you're being with a friend who understands and supports you. About thinning hair: I started following the Wim Hof (Iceman) method about a year ago. It's about cold exposure (cold showers/icebaths). I don't do the icebaths, but do turn off the hot tap, after I've showered, for several minutes. It's freezing cold at the moment, but the cold water on my head reduced the hair-loss significantly! About changing career after 40: Yes. Go for it! I recently turned 59, and changed my career last October (and 3,5 years before that too, and 4 years before that as well). Go with the flow and keep an open eye and mind to opportunities!

[@mezf8833]

Adore you and the energy you ooze through my screen. You’ve lifted me up on some very low and rough days. I really appreciate your honesty and authenticity and genuine love for humanity. Your words resonate with me on a very deep level. Thank you ♥️

[@dominiquesachsetv]

Thank you so much for sharing with me..

[@birdenthusiast2095]

One thing I’ve learned about myself is that my hair will always change. Lived most of my life with long hair. Cut it short about 9 years ago to a pixie. I also quit covering my grays over 3 years ago and have salt/pepper hair. Now at almost 55, I’m growing it out a smidge. Dominique, I’m getting some hair ideas from your videos. 😉

[@aliciacasias5382]

loved the Q&A always... learning something always,and great that you list all the products helps me when i want to buy and try the products ... can't wait to read your book

[@carolebuckle7977]

Without sounding patronising, I am so proud of you…. Because the way you handled ALL what was happening at once! Wow Dominique I applaud your stamina & keeping your head high. Love you & enjoy watching you more now, you seem more relaxed or at peace from the stress you must have been enduring 🙏🏻 🥰❤️‍🩹🇬🇧xxxx

[@katherinederosa1688]

Didn’t get to ask a question Dominique. I have been wondering what your son is interested in studying in college. Will he follow in your footsteps into journalism?

[@loisbarry5534]

In the U.K. watching the snow hammering down and thinking “what an awful day”. Just watched your video and am now thinking “what a great day”…. You’ve just instilled the “we’re only here once” adage into me - Life is for living, enjoying and making the most of. Most importantly, you’ve got to do it for yourself first…. Thank you for your wise words and kindly wisdom 🙏🏼
