Prior to attending Motherhood University, Teresa Berger received her master's in business administration from the University of Phoenix. Like the University's current advertising campaign, Teresa strives to be a Phoenix (as the Free Dictionary defines "a person of unsurpassed excellence or beauty") each and every day of her life as her mother was. She lives with her family in Abington, PA, named one of America's Best Places to Live by Money Magazine (2008). This is her first book, but surely not her last.
