Hello, everyone. Welcome to the Laila Rose show. Welcome back. Great to be back with you guys.

I am going to be talking about heroes today, heroes and anti-heroes.

And this is really, I think, what can make or break cultures.

Who are our heroes? And who do we admire? Who do we look to?

So really excited to dive into that. I think there's a lot of takeaways for us.

But before doing that, first of all, thank you for everybody who has emailed me, sent me your thoughts.

On the last couple episodes, we talked with Josanne Marie about her incredible story as a sexual abuse survivor, a childhood sexual abuse survivor, and her life of forgiveness.

And so I got some interesting notes from some of you about some of you who've been through similar experiences and just the power of hearing other people overcome.

And that that does not in the end define you, but that you are beautiful as Josanne's book is called beautiful.

And then we also had an episode last week on what to look for in a man. I will be doing a what to look for in a woman episode in the future.

But I love the feedback on that too. Some from men saying, hey, it was good to listen about listen to qualities that are good for men to have that I aspire to.

And some great comments from women. I mean, one from a woman who a couple from women who are dating or engaged and wondering, okay, do I keep moving forward because this person I'm with, this man is actually not interested in fatherhood.

And that's really can be a deal breaker. So anyways, keep sending your thoughts. It's really great to hear them.

Thoughts at LaLaRoseShow.com. As I shared last week, my new book is coming out actually today. Today is my book birthday Tuesday May 4th.

You might be listening to this later, but yes, this is the day. It's been long awaited. And I'm so excited to finally share fighting for life, becoming a force for change in a wounded world.

I'm super pumped about it. I think that more than ever, we all need to get in the fight.

There is a battle raging. Our nation is at a crossroads. Our world. All of our nations are at crossroads in a way every day.

And we have to decide what role we're going to play and how we're going to stand up and show up and stand up for what's right.

So fighting for life is a guidebook. It is a handbook of sorts for anybody who wants to make a change in the world. It's also very personal.

I share about building life action and the struggles I've been through and the triumphs. And I hope I hope I hope that is helpful and inspiring for you.

So enjoy, enjoy, enjoy. Okay.

Let's go to this topic of today heroes and anti heroes on the podcast. We talk a lot about development causes how to be healthier, how to grow as human beings.
