Growing up, Sandy Weiner always thought she was going to be using her creativity in purely art endeavors. Her point of view pivoted when she recognized she found value in helping others in creative ways through her coaching. After spending time feeling like she had lost her value, she regained a strong sense of self by slowing down and reevaluating her value and priorities. Sandy’s mission is to help other women rediscover their value through setting limits, speaking up, understanding their worth. Using her three pillars of core confidence, Weiner leads our listeners through an exercise we all can do to identify and keep up with our internal values. This episode, she also gives dating advice that we can use during and after the pandemic.

Weiner on the importance of caring for yourself first: _12:53 “If you let yourself down, you're actually letting everybody down. And when you're more worried, I read about somebody else than yourself, then you're shifting into something. I think that's not you. And people don't really know you. They don't really know where you begin and end. And so you're not doing anybody a favor and it's just such an important message that we have to get through our heads that we need to take care of ourselves first. And when that's taken care of the right people, we'll accommodate and we'll listen to our boundaries as we will listen to theirs.” Weiner's advice for those questioning themselves: _17:39 “I looked at other people and said, Oh my God, I'll never be that. And I think we have to put ourselves on a pedestal and really understand that we have much more power and ability that we think and just trust them. We can don't listen to naysayers. I mean, people who were like, Oh, you're not making enough money coaching. You should just work at Starbucks. You'll get medical benefits. And I believed in myself and I kept going. And I think that, you know, you can't listen to all those other voices. You've just got to strengthen the voice inside.” — On The Dot Woman Content Corner Looking for more tips, motivation and direction?
