About Cheri's Journey & Mission
Women who pursue motherhood later in life face challenges that remain largely hidden from public conversation.
Cheri Bergeron's path to motherhood traversed extraordinary hardship. She navigated foster parenting, fertility treatments, genetic complications, the heartbreak of loss, premature birth, and a bitter custody battle during divorce.
From these experiences emerged not just a family, but a mission. Cheri transformed her struggles into wisdom that now guides other women—especially those without partners—toward building their own families with confidence and clarity.
Her story offers more than inspiration; it provides practical insight for women facing similar obstacles. Through her faith journey, Cheri found strength to pursue the family she was meant to have despite seemingly insurmountable barriers.
Beyond personal empowerment, Cheri's experience reveals troubling biases within our legal system that often marginalize single mothers and non-traditional families. The time for legislative reform has come—our laws must evolve to protect all family structures.
We invite you to join Cheri's mission.
