The path from worship pastor to entrepreneur is not a common one, but Josh Dominguez has walked it with intention — and built something substantial on the other side. As the founder of Refresh LED, a company specializing in LED technology for podcast studios, churches, and live events, Dominguez has taken the values he developed in ministry and applied them to the demands of running a business. When Josh Dominguez sat down with Sean Kelly on the Digital Social Hour, he arrived with a story that spans faith, family, entrepreneurship, and a health battle that could have derailed everything.
The conversation is generous with detail: how LED technology is reshaping immersive experiences, why Dominguez believes faith and business belong together, how he thinks about parenting in a social-media-saturated world, and the kidney transplant he overcame while building his company. It is an episode that earns its runtime.
About Josh Dominguez
Josh Dominguez founded Refresh LED after years of ministry work, bringing the same community orientation to his business that defined his time as a worship pastor. The company has grown into a supplier of LED solutions for events, broadcast studios, and houses of worship — spaces where, as Dominguez sees it, environment and atmosphere matter as much as content.
Beyond the business, Dominguez has been open about the personal challenges that shaped his entrepreneurial journey, including a kidney transplant that tested his resolve at a critical moment in the company's growth. His involvement with the Philly Dream Center reflects the community-service thread that runs through his work in both ministry and business.

Why This Conversation Matters
Josh Dominguez's episode is the kind that reminds you why the Digital Social Hour casts a wide net. His path — from ministry to LED technology, through a serious health crisis, into a thriving company — is genuinely unlikely, and the framework of faith that runs through all of it gives the conversation a coherence that is hard to manufacture. For anyone building something while holding onto what they believe, it is a meaningful listen.
