Who Is Tina Weiss?
Entrepreneur • Visionary • Author • Coach • Women & Children’s Advocate • Philanthropist • Motivational Speaker • Consultant
I’ve walked through uncertainty, loss and reinvention, and I found a way forward . Now I help others turn life‘s hardest moments into strength, purpose, and a life they truly deserve.
Through all these experiences, Tina has met countless extraordinary women—brilliant visionaries, caretakers, and leaders who give endlessly to everyone around them, yet often feel unseen, exhausted, and spiritually drained. She understands that struggle deeply, because she has lived it too.
Raised in an Orthodox Jewish home, Tina was deeply influenced by her grandfather, an Orthodox rabbi who immigrated from Poland before World War II. Learning about the Holocaust at a young age shaped her... sensitivity to injustice and human suffering across cultures and faiths. Music, dance, and art became her refuge—creative expressions that helped her process life’s realities and inspired her lifelong commitment to bringing light into difficult spaces.
As a child, Tina played piano while her father sang—moments that anchored her in joy and connection. That early foundation of faith, community engagement, and service became her compass. It continues to guide both her professional work and her mission.
The project closest to her heart is Hugs and Smiles Children’s Foundation, which she founded in 2002 in Los Angeles to support adoption assistance efforts. After relocating to Florida in 2018, she relaunched the organization with a renewed focus on bringing music, art, and cultural programming to underserved children and families. The foundation sustained virtual programming throughout the pandemic and later returned to live performances and workshops.
Today, Tina’s passion for the arts and her commitment to uplifting children remain central to her work. With the launch of her book and related programs, a portion of all proceeds will continue to support the mission of Hugs and Smiles—ensuring that creativity, connection, and hope reach those who need it most.

Turning life's darkest moments into light, strength, and purpose
In 2024 Tina embarked upon what should have been a dream vacation, but after being robbed twice in 3 days, left with no passport, no money, and no credit cards, that dream became a living nightmare. It was at that point that Tina drew upon her faith, recalling the life lessons she learned growing up, and with courage, determination, and prayer she lived to tell the tale. “Fear to Faith” is her first book, a powerful story of her journey of survival, spirituality, and self-discovery, designed to help empower and support women from all walks of life.
MISSION STATEMENT
A Message from My Heart
That lived experience is what led me to write my book, Fear to Faith, along with its companion workbooks and digital programs. This work was created to inspire and empower women—entrepreneurs, single mothers, caretakers, and anyone navigating life’s challenges—to move through pain and reconnect with purpose. My mission is to help transform pain into purpose by offering guidance, creative tools, and heartfelt support rooted in authenticity, resilience, and spiritual growth. ...
For more than 30 years, I’ve built businesses and nonprofit initiatives designed to uplift others. At the heart of everything I do is a desire to support others, to walk beside you—not ahead of you, not above you. Whether you are an entrepreneur, a mother, a caretaker, young or old, you deserve to feel supported and inspired as you move forward. Through creative healing, spiritual grounding, and simple daily practices that strengthen the soul, I help women rise—into confidence, courage, and a deeper connection with who they truly are. You can learn from my mistakes!
This is not about becoming someone new. It’s about remembering who you are.
This is your time to stop shrinking and start shining. Everything you’ve been through has prepared you for this moment. Today, we begin by reclaiming your reflection—your power, your purpose, and your peace.
You are enough. You are capable. You are worthy just as you are. You’ve got this. Yes, you’re ready. And yes—you can!”

“I am deeply passionate about helping people rise—especially women who have given so much of themselves that they’ve forgotten what it feels like to feel whole. I know what it’s like to give your all and still feel unseen, to carry responsibility with strength on the outside while your soul quietly longs for relief, to be seen, heard, and held.
