The Power of Two is a universal and timeless story of hope, possibility and living life outside the lines, co-written by media powerhouses and best friends Lisa Messenger and Sarah Megginson, and their uplifting, life-affirming surrogacy story.

For the past year, the world has followed closely as Lisa and Sarah—co-authors, media powerhouses and best friends—candidly and generously shared the remarkable journey to starting Lisa's family. After eight years of 'trying'—involving 16 rounds of IVF, 480 injections and endless heartbreak—Lisa accepted that she needed to take up Sarah's incredible, selfless offer of surrogacy to support her dream of becoming a mother.

When they decided, after a twelve-year friendship to embark on creating a baby together, they started candidly sharing their story and the joys and lessons they were learning along the way. Audiences hung on their every post and word and the media came in throngs.

In The Power of Two, Lisa and Sarah will delve further into their profound journey—one that transcends pain and heartache to shine a light on what becomes possible when we embrace vulnerability and the power of community. This story may start with a beautiful friendship and the birth of a much-wanted baby boy—but this book is about more than the journey to parenthood.

While people are fascinated by the challenges of fertility, IVF, and surrogacy, it is the accompanying themes of friendship, vulnerability, tenacity, resilience, generosity, the power of community, staying open and never taking no for an answer, that are having a deep and profound impact.

The Power of Two will be a beacon of hope for anyone who has faced adversity, loss, grief and heartache. It will be a celebration of the tenacity we all possess, the power of giving—and the power in receiving. The Power of Two is ultimately about how one single connection can cause a boundless ripple, a wellspring of potential for lasting change well beyond what was once thought conceivable.
