Houstonians get ready, because former KPRC 2 anchor Dominique Sachse is making her way back to Houston with a podcast tour that's poised to cater directly to the experiences of women navigating the challenges of midlife. The Emmy award-winning journalist is set to bring "The Flourishing Tour" to an eager Houston audience on June 20 at Match Houston in Midtown, as reported by the Chron. With additional pit stops planned for Washington, D.C., Dallas, and Brooklyn, Sachse is on a mission to empower and unite women through shared experiences and inspiring stories.
After leaving the familiar Houston airwaves in 2021, Sachse has not quietly settled to enjoy her status as a respected TV news veteran; instead, she's fully engaged to continue making a mark – this time on the digital front. "This is my first time doing 'shows,' and I'm feeling a wave of excitement, nerves and some major anticipation!" Sachse recently gushed on Instagram. The event promises to offer a sense of sisterhood and celebration, shining a spotlight on women who've triumphed over adversity. Attendees have the opportunity to nominate a "Ms. Flourishing" before the event, honoring one victorious woman with a sash and flowers amidst a shower of confetti, as detailed by the Houston Chronicle.
Nominated for her empowering message, Sachse's podcast, "Over 50 & Flourishing with Dominique Sachse," is aimed squarely at women who might feel adrift in the ever-stormy sea of midlife. Her voice is one of positivity and encouragement – a creed she underscored on her podcast on February 5 when she asserted, "It is not downhill over age 50, there's still so much to do, there's still so much that you can accomplish." Indeed, with Sachse at the helm, the voyage seems a little less daunting.
But it's not only about podcasts and empowerment tours for Sachse. She's also recently taken on the role of co-host on "Morning on Merit Street," an innovative morning news show alongside veteran news anchor Fanchon Stinger. Set to premiere on April 2, the show is pegged to offer "a brand new approach to morning news," focusing on lifestyle staples like fitness and family health. Not one to slow down, Sachse continues to effortlessly cultivate her post-KPRC career transformation – working to deeply entrench her brand in the multifaceted media landscape.
To follow Sachse’s multifaceted endeavors from journalism to digital content creation is to watch a finesse-filled pivot rarely seen in an industry so often stereotyped for valuing youth over experience. With nearly 2 million YouTube followers and a newly minted book, "Life Makeover: Embrace the Bold, Beautiful and Blessed You," Sachse’s flourishing extends well beyond the title of her tour – it’s a testament to her ever-growing sphere of influence.
