The Many Ways To Create A Family with Cheri Bergeron
About this episode
Cheri Bergeron is an author, blogger, public speaker, trained life coach, and founder of the nonprofit Cheri's Choice, guiding women through alternative paths to motherhood.
Following a successful career in IT, Cheri now helps single women weigh their options, navigate fertility challenges, and build families on their own terms. Her personal fertility journey included becoming a mother without a partner through IVF treatments and donor conception. She won a landmark Texas family law case (Bergeron v. Saunders) that challenged outdated legislation concerning families formed through assisted reproduction.
In her memoir Mission: Motherhood, Cheri shares her experiences with relationships, workplace challenges, and choosing motherhood after 40. She details her struggles with IVF and the realities of "geriatric pregnancy."
Today, from her home in Austin, Texas, she empowers ambitious women to reject limiting fairy tales and boldly chart their own paths to motherhood—even without a Prince Charming.
