Hello

I’m passionate about helping women reboot, regroup and reinvent themselves in Faith, Leadership, Family, Community and Business after significant tragedies so they can maximize their potential in every single area of your life not only surviving but thriving. ​I strive to lead others to stand in their God given purpose without fearful self-imposed limits, to succeed despite the odds stacked against them and to live their life knowing they're enough and worthy. ​I believe life’s inevitable pains are an opportunity to pause, regain power and reinvent ourselves through God's word. I’m here to help you, thrilled to connect with you and vow to inspire you to create the life that you want and desire!

Cherie Rickard is an Author, Adversity Recovery Specialist, Speaker, Medical Professional, Business Owner and Host of Real Girl Talk Podcast Radio Show.  

A master in teaching the art of positive mindset, she found her passion for helping others when her life took a turn no mother can even imagine unless you’ve walked in her shoes. Her 17-year-old son Bryant died tragically in an auto accident coming home one night trying to make curfew. She understands the need to reclaim yourself when life tosses a devastating blow. For 7 years she used a pen and paper and later her laptop to write down every pain, struggle and milestone she encountered after the worst day of her life. Facing a crossroad in life with depression and destruction versus using her pain and regaining power she chose to live in a way that would honor her son's memory and give glory to God. She knows how to make your mess your message and learned to live a life with passion and purpose. It is a message she learned from her own life and one that she uses to help others apply to their own lives.

 

Through her Create Your Life Vision Board Workshop, Empowerment is Beauty LLC, books, speaking events and Real Girl Talk Podcast Radio she equips women to reinvent, regroup and live the life God intended. Cherie continues to speak to Women Organizations, Women's Conferences and Groups on adversity healing through God's word, confidence building and mastering the art of intentional living.

Cherie’s philosophy is – “We were all born on purpose, for a purpose. It’s up to us to live the gift of life God gave us”
