Dominique Sachse on Aging Well, HRT, and Building Muscle After 50

The moment you decide to show up publicly, you open the door to opinions from people who would never say those things to your face. Dominique Sachse, journalist, author, and content creator who has lived her life on camera for over three decades, gets honest about what it costs to put yourself out there, why online cruelty is a psychology problem more than a content problem, and how “Teflon Dom” developed the thick skin to let none of it redirect her.
