About Me

My name is Dominic, and my spiritual journey began in 2020 during the pandemic. My fiancée had just broken off our engagement (I proposed while drunk in Mexico), which sent me spiraling into a deep depression. At the time, I was an alcoholic of ten years, overweight, anxious, a people-pleaser, and deeply unhappy.

Hitting rock bottom forced me to finally seek change. I quit drinking and started devouring self-help and spiritual content—books, videos, courses, you name it.

Everything clicked when I stumbled upon a YouTube Live video from an old friend. She was discussing Becoming Supernatural by Dr. Joe Dispenza. I immediately read that book multiple times, along with all his others.

It was then that I realized: I am not my mind. I am not my thoughts, fears, or emotions. I am something bigger—something I didn’t fully understand but was desperate to explore.

This realization led me to meditation. I found the Waking Up App by Sam Harris, whose non-religious approach resonated with me.

After churning through countless hours of meditation on that app, I was still at a loss. I found a way to “stop” the thoughts, but they always seemed to come back.

Everything changed when I discovered The Direct Approach series by Stephen Bodian on the app. During his 9-minute meditation, he shared this wisdom:

“Allow everything to be exactly the way it is. Don’t try to change or get rid of anything. Just let it be.”

And in that moment, I tasted my first spiritual awakening. I finally understood what the mystics were pointing to—a radical approach of complete allowance. I later learned this was the “non-dual” perspective, connected to teachings like Advaita Vedanta and Dzogchen.

From that point on, I realized I didn’t need to keep “trying” to awaken. I simply needed to ALLOW.

ALLOW ALLOW ALLOW.

That’s where I am today—on a journey of allowing, letting go of the false ego, and resting as pure Awareness. Some days, I still get pulled into the illusion of being a separate self with fears and doubts.

But now, I know the truth of who I really am.

My purpose is to share that Truth with as many people as possible. How that unfolds, I leave to Awareness itself. I continue to surrender to this journey, trusting it will show me the way.

I hope my story and my offerings—whether on this website or on YouTube—can help you find freedom from the mind. May you experience the true inner peace that is our natural state of Being.

Thank you for your time.

Much Love,

(PS: If you are interested in trying the Waking Up app, here’s a link to the Free trial. I hope it helps you as much as it helped me.)
