2021-#11 UP CLOSE & PERSONAL W/ Domo Jones


Dominique aka Dōmo

Dominique aka Dōmo is just a girl that wants to share her story with as many people as she can hoping to help just one. 




From being diagnosed with a brain tumor at age nine to going through 187 chemotherapy treatments, she realized she story wasn’t just meant for her. But people that needed to hear her journey. During the pandemic is when she decided to take that leap, using that time to make the best of it. March 2020, she self published her first autobiography called “#DamagedButNotDead.” She kept that momentum by self publishing her second book called “Selftalk...But You Can Eavesdrop Too” in August of that same year. This collection of inspirational quotes  started during the hardest physical and mental times of her life, so why not share it with others. 


Yes she has a disability, but a disability is not an inability. She just customizes it to fit her. After having to use a walker at age 22, I developed a  business called “WalkingByDesign” which customizes medical accessories. Not stopping there, she recently opened an online store called “Salve” which promotes her motto “Don’t let the disability fool you.” During the promotion phase of interviews, Podcasting became an interest of hers but wanted to make it fit who she represents as a person. 


In October 2020, she started her own Podcast titled the same motto interviewing the disabled community and essential caregivers. During her journey, she realized there was a way she could help people like her who live with disabilities, so she became a Master Certified Disability Confidence Coach in February 2021. She’s a business owner with a disability, a Master Life Coach with muscle weakness, a podcast host that breaks the stigma, and an author with a bold personality...she contradicts every rule out there!! So now that you know her, you know you’re friends forever, right?! Oh and the most important things you need to know: she loves earmuffs and she loves YOU!!
