Dom is a mentality and breathwork expert who teaches others to learn to adapt to stress &amp;amp; build Resilience. He is also the Director of Community + Experiences&amp;nbsp;at Plunge. In this episode, Dom and I get vulnerable about the struggles we have both faced mentally, physically, spiritually, and emotionally after suffering cardiac episodes. Dom also opens up about his past in the entertainment space and how he went from throwing ragers for some of the world's top musical artists to starting his own experiential wellness company and ultimately landing a job with Plunge. This is a powerful episode that will change the way you view hardship and develop the mindset of resiliency and the ability to overcome any challenge life throws your way.
