Here is the "Real" Bio...
Hi! I am Dominique. I am a high achiever who paid a high price for ignoring his blind spots. I've been fired. I've been through bankruptcy. I've been estranged from my children. Burnout led me to the ER. I've felt lost and lonely.
​
I coach clients who inspire me, have the ambition to make their dent in the universe, and dare to challenge themselves. Some go through life-changing experiences. They work with me to explore new paths through unchartered territories. I speak truth to power.
​
There was a time when I would drive in the fast lane. But then, eventually, after a few crashes and the nudges of good friends, I took some unexpected turns and embarked on a journey of my own. A journey from the head to the heart. A voyage from reactivity to creativity. I was a know-it-all, and I became a learner. And from wanting to be right, I became a seeker. Once my worst enemy, I became my best friend. Like you, I work to grow each day as a courageous, conscious leader.
​
It helped immensely when someone held a mirror before my eyes in a compassionate manner. My joy is now to turn the mirror onto you and see you raise your game, embrace your true purpose, and honor your values.
When I am not engaged in a mindful conversation with a leader like you, the odds are that I am either hiking in the desert, meditating at dawn, playing the guitar, or mentoring the youth, which I love.
Here is the "Golden Reflector" Bio...
Once a successful lawyer, Spade became a well-known DJ in the Montreal electronic music scene. His face was filled with tattoos; his eyes were bright as the stars. We were neighbors, shared drinks, philosophized at sunset, and took long walks along the Lachine Canal.
​
Spade: "Dom, you are a golden reflector."
Me: "Hum… A golden what?"
Spade: "Yep. You are a golden reflector. We tell you our stories in bronze or silver. And when you tell the stories back to us, it's gold."
Me: "…"
Spade's compliment took a few years to seep in. But then, eventually, I stopped looking the other way, welcomed my sacred gifts, and embraced my superpowers.
​

And how about you?

"As the CEO of Siemens Digital Industry Software for South America and with over 15 years in leadership roles, I’ve worked with various professionals, but my journey with Dominique has been nothing short of extraordinary. Over the past four years, he has guided me in embracing the essence of conscious leadership, helping me to not only understand its true meaning but also weave it seamlessly into my personal life.
Dominique possesses a rare ability to balance empathy and challenge. He keeps me grounded when needed, while always encouraging growth and pushing me beyond my comfort zone.

The impact of his coaching is reflected in the exponential growth of my leadership capabilities, the development of my team, and the success of the company as a whole. His approach to conscious leadership has not only helped me evolve but has also inspired a culture of growth and success among my colleagues.
What sets Dominique apart is his holistic perspective on life. He recognizes that true leadership stems from the integration of the intellectual, physical, and spiritual aspects of ourselves. There are no shortcuts or magic solutions—just a deep commitment to growth in all areas of life.
Finding a coach who resonates with your values is no easy feat, but Dominique’s approach aligns perfectly with my vision of life and leadership. He is not just a coach; he is a partner in growth, helping me become the best version of myself both personally and professionally."

Louise @ Anheuser-Busch InBev (Belgium):
“Dear Dominique, I wanted to express my deep appreciation for the incredible support and guidance you've given me throughout our coaching journey.
When we started working together, I was under immense stress, feeling overwhelmed and disconnected. Thanks to your thoughtful approach and the techniques you introduced, my stress levels have gone from extremely high to truly manageable. I feel more grounded, present, and resilient in my day-to-day life.
You've also helped me regain something I had lost for a while—my self-confidence. With your encouragement and guidance, I’ve been able to show up at work with a renewed sense of purpose and assurance, and that’s been reflected in the positive feedback I’ve received from my line managers.
One of the most impactful parts of our work together has been the clarity I’ve gained about what truly matters in my life. You helped me sort through the noise, reconnect with my real priorities, and make changes already leading to a more balanced and fulfilling lifestyle.
Lastly, I’m incredibly grateful for the practical, powerful techniques you shared around assertiveness and leadership. I now feel equipped to lead confidently and authentically, and I notice a fundamental shift in how I show up professionally.
Thank you so much for helping me grow, not just in my role, but as a person.
Cheers and hope to see you again soon, Louise."
