In this episode, I’m thrilled to be joined by my good college friend, Dominic DeMarco (who you’ll hear also goes by Mimo in friend circles), who is a small business owner and an adventure traveler who successfully hiked the 2100 mile Appalachian Trail, hiked the 2600 mile Pacific Crest Trail, and bicycled the 4000 mile TransAmerica Bike Route.
I wanted to have Dominic on for 2 reasons: 1) I want to learn from people who have engaged in activities that require endurance and resilience and understand if there is learning from those experiences to apply to how we might lead more sustainable lives+work; and 2) Dominic followed a non-traditional career path from early on and now runs a successful small business.
In this conversation, we hear life lessons from Dominic’s long-distance treks, a redefinition of success for the 99% of us, the importance of embracing a growth mindset and “micro-tries” as adults, and what it takes to carve out space for yourself if you run a business.
Mimo - thank you so much for being on and being willing to share your personal experiences with us. So many good gems in this conversation!

How do you navigate the inevitable conflicts between work and life? Not just the daily schedules or mounting responsibilities, but the tensions between your ambition for your career and your ambition for life?
How do you decide what to prioritize and what to let go of? How do you decide when to speed ahead and when to ease up?
These aren’t questions of work-life balance or self-care. They’re questions we can answer when we get serious about intentionally designing a life with work that works for you.
Join Kathy Oneto, executive and life-work coach and founder of Sustainable Ambition, for conversations with experts, authors, and friends to explore sticky questions around navigating ambitious careers while integrating life with work, practicing sustainable work practices, and building resilience.
Most people assume that ambition and sustainability are mutually exclusive. Not so! Keep listening, and Kathy will make you a believer in Sustainable Ambition, too.
