Cheri Bergeron tells her true story about fertility, loss and perseverance to create the family of her dreams.
Your biological clock is ticking. Society says find the right guy first. Get married. Then have babies.
But what if Prince Charming never made it to the Ball? Does that mean you have to give up on your dream of motherhood?
Cheri Bergeron refused to let fate—or fertility—write her story. In this raw, riveting memoir, she rips apart the outdated fairy tale of motherhood and shows you how to write your own.
From the boardroom to the fertility clinic, from fostering to fighting a landmark custody battle in Texas courts, Cheri's journey proves one thing: There's more than one way to build the family of your dreams.
This isn't just another fertility story. It's a battle cry for every woman who:
Hears her biological clock ticking while climbing the corporate ladder
Wonders if she needs to wait for "Mr. Right" to become a mom
Feels trapped by society's outdated rules about motherhood
Questions whether she's "too old" or "too single" to have a baby
Mission: Motherhood opens a world of possibilities for anyone feeling trapped by antiquated concepts of family building. Let it empower you to write your own story—no glass slippers required.
