#105 Zaka Presents My Journey Dominique Chevon Doyle

Dominique “SoChevon” Doyle is an inspiring immigrant entrepreneur who defied traditional norms and carved her own path to success. Born to Trinidadian parents, Dominique’s initial career in healthcare seemed like the expected route. However, fate had other plans.

Discover how Dominique’s life took a dramatic turn when she faced a layoff during the government shutdown 8 years ago. This unexpected twist became the catalyst for her to dive headfirst into her true passion: makeup artistry. In a world where Caribbean children are often encouraged to pursue safer careers in health, law, or finance, Dominique’s choice to follow her creative calling was a courageous departure from the norm.

Dominique shares her perspective on the definition of natural beauty and how her approach to makeup sets her apart from the rest. For her, makeup is not just a cosmetic enhancement; it’s a powerful tool for self-expression and confidence-building. She creates a safe space for her clients, where the act of applying makeup becomes a therapeutic and transformative experience.
