Hi, everyone!

Today, we’re joined by Dominique Elissa. Dom’s story is incredibly heartbreaking. She lost her beautiful Mum to cancer days after marrying her husband, Tom Bull.

In this conversation, Dom speaks about the moment she met Tom, the early days of their relationship, why their wedding was planned in weeks, and the conflicting emotions she felt when she was told her Mum was too sick to attend. Dom is making space for both the highs and the lows and opens up about how life feels now, saying goodbye to her beloved Mum.
