Sara Berge
Sara Berge grew up in a strict household where the library was her playground, and by fourth grade she was asking her father to take her to the courthouse instead of Disney. At sixteen, she faced a life-altering turn that made her the subject of neighborhood talk, but she converted that judgment into fuel. While raising a child, she pursued college, driving to Orlando at four in the morning and refusing to quit on the dark highways. A near-fatal accident later placed her in the ICU for a month, where an ambulance-chasing attorney opened her eyes to how personal injury law should not be practiced, and her husband's federal prison sentence tested her resilience all over again.
The day after passing the bar, Sara opened Berge Law, PA, determined to build a firm rooted in human connection rather than billboard clichés. Her mission became deeply personal when her own son was hit by a car and required brain surgery, yet she led the firm through doubled growth that same year. She teaches entrepreneurs to self-proof their minds, use rose-colored glasses as a power tool, and seek uncomfortable experiences like skydiving to remove fear. Today her children want to become lawyers, and she is writing three books and building a podcast around her message for modern mompreneurs.
