We had the good fortune of connecting with Tanya Cole and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Tanya, is your business focused on helping the community? If so, how?
My book was written to help girls learn their worth, live their lives, explore the world, and be whole before getting involved in a serious relationship.

My book Love vs Life description:
Choosing yourself is often misunderstood. It is said this is because it is blended with other disreputable opinions. Choosing you isn’t about being unethical, conceited, squashing over others to get on in life or having a general lack of consideration toward your surroundings. Choosing you isn’t about treating life as a rat race, using undercover and underhand methods to get what you want, when you want, by any means possible.
Na’Tasha chose not to live her life in the way she dreamed it to be. Instead, she chose the life of the people she loved and in return those people chose themselves or others with no hesitation. Na’Tasha lived half of her life taking care of everyone but herself and her repayment was betrayal and heartbreak.
Heartbreak is evidence that a person loves in good faith and the kind of bond that hurts considerably when broken. Na’Tasha thought she loved with integrity but looking back she realized she lacked self-love which is required to have self-respect. It is also required to demand respect from others. Heartbreak is miserable pain and stress on both your brain and body. It is a strong biological phenomenon that can’t be measured. This book has events of what Na’Tasha, and a lot of other women losing their youth to after choose love vs their life. The sad truth of the matter is a woman’s powerful intuition often gives the warnings that are ignored.
Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
My mother, Elaine L Baker-Myers, that recently passed away unexpectedly last August. She was my biggest supporter, encourager, and mentor. My mother is the reason this project was completed. She would not allow me to give up on it. She let me know how my story could change the lives of so many other woman that are going through similar situations or that may start to and decide not to based on the outcome of my story, In addition, this story can open up the eyes for men to see the point a view from a females prospective and be more understand and mindful with their actions and words. I will be thankful for the rest of my life for the love, encouragement and support of my mother.
