Helping teens grow with confidence, clarity, and real-world skills—without outdated advice or shame.

Nina Baker is a writer and teen coach who creates modern, practical resources to help teens and young adults navigate growing up in today’s fast-changing world. Her work focuses on real-life challenges, such as life skills, puberty, emotions, relationships, and confidence, approached with honesty, empathy, and relevance for the world young people are living in now.

Nina believes that growing up shouldn’t feel overwhelming, confusing, or isolating. Through clear explanations, supportive language, and actionable tools, she helps young people better understand themselves, build confidence, and develop the skills they need to feel capable and prepared during important life transitions.

Her books are known for being approachable, shame-free, and grounded in real experiences. Rather than relying on outdated advice, Nina addresses topics like independence, emotional regulation, and personal development in ways that encourage open conversations, self-awareness, and healthy habits, while respecting the diversity of bodies, backgrounds, and experiences.

Committed to evolving alongside her readers, Nina continues to expand her body of work with upcoming books focused on executive functioning skills for teens and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), informed tools to support emotional regulation, resilience, and mental well-being.

When she’s not writing or coaching, Nina enjoys exploring new real estate opportunities and spending quality time with her family. With a holistic approach to education and personal growth, she is dedicated to creating resources that help young people feel supported, confident, and ready for what’s next.
