Explore books by Mike Baker about hope, grief, leadership, women’s health, faith, ADHD, AI, family, and staying human through real life.


A book for anyone trying to stay connected — to people, to their own values, to their humanity — in a world that keeps pulling us apart. Practical, honest, and hopeful, it's about leading and living with heart when it would be easier not to.

A man's guide to endometriosis — what it is, why it's so often dismissed, and how partners, fathers, and friends can show up better. Written for the husband who wants to understand, the dad who wants to help, and every man who's ever said "I didn't know." Believing her sooner changes everything.

A husband's honest, sometimes funny, always compassionate guide to perimenopause and menopause. What's actually happening, what she needs, and how to be a partner instead of a bystander. The book plenty of men wish someone had handed them years earlier.

Honest stories for people who are tired but not done. About grief, showing up, falling short, and starting again — the quiet persistence that real life asks of us. If you've been running on empty and still choosing to keep going, this one's for you.

A son's memoir of Alzheimer's — love, loss, and the long goodbye. A tender, unflinching look at watching a parent slip away while learning what stays. For anyone walking the caregiver's road, or bracing to.

ADHD as a different kind of engine, not a defect. On creativity, leadership, and building a life that works *with* a mind that moves differently instead of against it. Part memoir, part field guide, for the scattered and the brilliant — often the same person.

A practical, no-lecture guide for men who want to grow up, show up, and be better — as partners, fathers, leaders, and friends. Small, doable shifts over grand gestures. Real change for men who are ready to do the work.

A man's case for women leading what comes next — in healthcare, business, families, and communities. Direct and unsentimental about why stepping back is often the most useful thing a man can do, and how to do it well.

On AI, creativity, healthcare, and community — and why staying human matters more, not less, as the tools get smarter. A hopeful, grounded argument that technology should amplify people, never replace them.

A memoir about leaving Mormonism and staying whole. On faith, doubt, family, and rebuilding an identity when the story you were raised inside no longer fits. Written with honesty and without bitterness, for anyone who's had to leave something they once loved.

Hope that tells the truth and does the work. Not blind positivity — a practical, clear-eyed case for choosing hope on purpose, especially when it's hard. For people who want to believe things can get better and are willing to help make it so.

A clear, caring book about safety, dignity, and self-trust — for anyone learning to recognize what they deserve and find their way toward it. Coming soon; join the list to hear when it's out.
