Welcome to Over 50 & Flourishing, the show for any woman who feels like she lost her compass in the sea of midlife. I’m here to tell you it’s never too late to change your course and awaken the healthy, wise, and wonderful woman within. My name is Dominique Sachse, and I love to ask questions, which was why I spent nearly three decades of my life in the TV news business. I also started a YouTube channel in 2014 to connect intimately with my community, and I took an even deeper dive in my book Life Makeover - Embrace The Bold, Beautiful and Blessed You. I’ll be the first to say, I’ve made mistakes, and I’m not afraid to be vulnerable and learn from them. I mean let’s face it, this stage of life can be complicated. Children are moving out, relationships are being examined, our parents are aging, and we’re having to manage all of this along with our menopause! It’s easy to lose sight of ourselves, but can I just say.. we matter. So, whether it’s finding ways to enhance and celebrate our own beauty, taking bold steps toward living our best life in the second half of life, finding ways to be healthier, happier, and more spiritually connected, I will bring you thinkers and innovators who share the same passion of flushing out these ideas. It’s my goal to leave us all feeling inspired, thought and intent-driven, and with a sense of purpose in whatever we pursue. Let’s celebrate growing older together and embrace our Prime. It’s our time!

From energy and brain function to hormones, skin, and metabolism, this powerful molecule plays a critical role in how our bodies function and declines significantly after our 30s. Dr. Andrew Salzman breaks down the science in a way that actually makes sense, helping us understand what’s really happening inside our cells and how it impacts aging, menopause, and overall vitality.We also dive into the connection between NAD, inflammation, the microbiome, and cellular energy, and what we can do to better support our bodies as we move through life.Dr. Andrew Salzman is a Harvard-educated physician and biomedical entrepreneur with more than 30 years of experience in drug discovery. He has published over 170 clinical studies, holds more than 50 patents, and is known for pioneering work in NAD biology, DNA repair, and longevity science. He currently serves as Chief Medical Officer at Wonderfeel, where he focuses on developing science-backed solutions for healthy aging.Subscribe and save $15 off the one-time price at:Homepage: https://getwonderfeel.com/?utm_source=DominiqueSachse&utm_medium=podcast Product Page: https://getwonderfeel.com/product/wonderfeel-youngr-nmn/?utm_source=DominiqueSach Keep in Touch:Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://dominiquesachse.tv/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Book: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://dominiquesachse.tv/book/Insta: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/dominiquesachse/Facebook: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/DominiqueSachse/TikTok: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@dominiquesachse?lang=enYouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@dominiquesachsetvHave a question for Dominique?

    I Changed My Hair… AGAIN! (+ Big News: I'M GOING ON TOUR)
    Apr 6 2026
    🎟️ Don’t miss your chance to experience the Behind the Curtain tour LIVE! Grab your tickets now before they’re gone! Get yours here: https://linktr.ee/over50flourishingIn this episode of Over 50 & Flourishing, I’m joined by Courtney for a candid and thoughtful conversation that starts with hair but quickly becomes something much deeper: identity, confidence, and the courage to embrace change. Together, we explore why something as simple as a hairstyle can carry so much meaning, and how many women tie their sense of self to how they look.From my own experiences with hair transformations to our reflections on fear, judgment, and self-worth, we talk about what it really means to step outside of your comfort zone and redefine beauty on your own terms. We discuss the pressure to stay the same, the freedom that comes with evolving, and how even small changes can spark personal growth. This episode is an honest look at the emotional layers behind change, and a reminder that embracing it can lead you closer to your most authentic and confident self.Have a question for Dominique?

As a single woman in my 50's, the isolation of covid was hard for me. Dominique kept me going! I love the way you do "life" with authenticity and class! So much love for you here in Chicago! Thank you for being you.

Love Dominique! She's a BFF I have yet to meet!
