We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Tanya M. Baker. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Tanya M. below.
Tanya M. , so great to have you with us and thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts with the community. So, let’s jump into something that stops so many people from going after their dreams – haters, nay-sayers, etc. We’d love to hear about how you dealt with that and persisted on your path.
Haters, well I don’t see them. And if and when I do. I use the negativity as a catalyst to positively change the narrative. Negative people only have the power we give them. Setting positive boundaries for myself has always been a helpful attic to keep me focused when dealing with any form of negativity. Also I realized that negativity is just apart of the plan of life. Just as darkness needs sunlight to be noticed. Negativity is the backdrop whereby we notice and get to become positive.
Great, so let’s take a few minutes and cover your story. What should folks know about you and what you do?

Looking back, what do you think were the three qualities, skills, or areas of knowledge that were most impactful in your journey? What advice do you have for folks who are early in their journey in terms of how they can best develop or improve on these?
Reach One – Always reach back to pick someone else up. This is what we were created to do. Leave no man or woman down.
Teach One – I am who I am today because great men and woman of God took time to teach me things that I needed to become who I am today. Without their leadership and the coaching of others I would have missed so much in life. I would have failed in areas where others successfully navigated through; now having the needed information to help me succeed. We are as great or greater than our teachers. And none of us can become our total selves without good mentorship.
Release One – I believe that I was created by God to be a vehicle whereby other women and men can become their best self. Through my coaching I help people let go, heal and build through Godly principles that empower them to live their best lives. Most importantly I am creating a Godly blueprint for others to be positive change in the world through leadership and life experiences survived.
One of our goals is to help like-minded folks with similar goals connect and so before we go we want to ask if you are looking to partner or collab with others – and if so, what would make the ideal collaborator or partner?
As I continue to be a light and a catalyst for the positive change in the lives for others. I hope to partner with other creatives, business leaders, coaches and more to help empower others. Again it takes a village and the village is the safe haven for the newbies who will come through the paths many of us have already travelled needing guidance. They will become greater than who we are. So collaboration is key, and it is how we widen our reach. It is having the ability to provide a vast amount of support to the collective whatever that looks like. No one wants to walk through life unsupported and alone. Real leaders connect, build and partner to make the team great. I want to partner with media outlets, non-profits and organizations for women, men, homeless, the youth and more. I hope to spread myself as far as I can to promote healthy outcomes in the lives of others who need to be lifted; while spreading the message of love through Jesus Christ.
