0:09.9	Triumph 111. Janelle welcome to the program.
0:13.0	Hello, Dr. Laura, it's so nice to chat with you this afternoon.
0:17.0	I just wanted to call in.
0:20.0	I'm 25 years old and I just wanted to let you know that I'm my parents ugliest child and I wanted to let you know I just wanted to call and share just how you've impacted my life in the last little bit.
