Clarity Begins With Curiosity

The stories we tell ourselves about our circumstances, our lives, and even who we are, are not necessarily the truth. But it’s so easy to get caught up in those stories, letting them swirl around until life feels tangled and overwhelming.

This is an invitation to pause.

To step out of the swirl, take a breath, and gently notice what’s really here. Together, we’ll create the space to untangle what’s in the way, reconnect to your deeper truth, and move forward with clarity and choice.

I’m so glad you’re here! 🙂

You’re in the Right Place if…

1

You’re unsure what you really want in life and want space to explore your options.

2

You’re feeling stuck in a relationship, or recovering from one, and don’t know what’s next.

3

You’re facing a tough decision and need clarity to move forward.

4

You’re curious about yourself; your patterns, your desires, your truth, and want to understand more.

5

You’re working on a goal and you want support to follow through.

Hi, I’m Dom.

I want my life and work to help people feel safe and confident enough to be themselves and follow their hearts. I’ve spent a lot of time (both in my career and relationships) trying to be the person I thought others expected me to be. And when I say I’ve had enough of that, it doesn’t mean I don’t still fall into that pattern when I feel pressure to perform or impress someone I admire. It’s ongoing work, and I doubt I’ll ever get it perfectly right, but it’s a pursuit that energizes me.

I’ve learned that when I show up open, present, and curious, I create space for others to do the same. That’s the environment I like to operate from, and I invite my clients into that space as well. It’s where we can explore new possibilities, take responsibility for our circumstances, and face the present moment without getting distracted by the past or future.

I love this quote from Alan Watts: “The meaning of life is just to be alive. It is so plain and so obvious and so simple. And yet, everybody rushes around in a great panic as if it were necessary to achieve something beyond themselves.”

When I think about the times I feel most alive, I’m usually connecting with other people, sharing our perspectives and appreciating our differences. We’re moving past formality and getting into the whimsical. We feel safe to express our goofy ideas and we cheer each other on, often with laughter.

How about you?

What to Expect

I’m certified by the International Association of Coaching, which means my coaching is grounded in presence, curiosity, and deep listening. I come to this work with a caring heart, a love for solving problems, and the mind of a philosophy nerd who can’t help but connect the dots.

Coaching with me is a conversation—a space for you to bring whatever’s on your mind and explore it with curiosity and honesty.

Here’s what it might look like:

  • We’ll start by getting clear on what you want to focus on, whether it’s a relationship, a big decision, or something you’re feeling stuck on.
  • I’ll ask questions to help you reflect, untangle your thoughts, and notice what’s true for you.
  • Together, we’ll explore your options, what excites you, and what feels aligned with who you are.
  • By the end of each session, you’ll leave with more clarity, self-awareness, and confidence to take your next step.

This isn’t about fixing or giving advice. It’s about creating a space where you can hear yourself clearly and trust what you find.
