A 10-year journey, a legal battle, and a "teaching memoir"


Hi Reader,

I’m excited to share my latest podcast episode with you! I recently sat down with Cheri Bergeron, author of Mission Motherhood, for a conversation that is as raw as it is inspiring.

Have you ever gone through a season of life that felt so difficult you wondered if there was any purpose in it? Cheri spent ten years navigating infertility, IVF, and even a complex legal battle before finding her “mission” in helping other women become mothers.

In this episode, we explore:

  • How Cheri turned her 10-year struggle into a “teaching memoir” to help others.
  • The practical steps she took to write the book, including why she hired a ghostwriter to move from “good to great.”
  • Her experience working with Scribe Media to shepherd her through the self-publishing process.
  • How she’s reaching a brand-new audience after a career in a male-dominated industry.
  • The launch of her nonprofit, Cherie’s Choice, which helps women plan their path to motherhood with intentionality.

One of my favorite things Cheri said was: “All of this hard-won wisdom needs to be used to benefit other women.” Whether you are an aspiring author or just need a reminder that there is hope after a struggle, this episode is for you.
