Amber Lavigne, a mom in Maine, was shocked to discover that her daughter's school hid critical information from her. When Amber's daughter sought mental health counseling at school, she was encouraged to change her gender identity and keep it secret from her family.

Radical activists are increasingly seeking to ignore women. Female athletes face discrimination, moms are told that they do not have a say in their children's education, and women are under increasing threat. Feminism, the very movement that was supposed to ensure women's equality and success, has led to a world in which women are being erased. To understand this topic, we're talking with Carrie Gress, a scholar, wife, and mother, whose latest book, "The End of Woman," explores this topic. Gress is the author of 10 books and the founder and co-editor of the online women's magazine Theology of Home. If you have ever been drawn to being a traditional wife and mother or if you have ever struggled to understand the feminist movement, you will be enlightened by this conversation!

Before Mayra Rodriguez became one of the leading Hispanic pro-life voices in the United States., she was Planned Parenthood's star employee. Mayra's story is one of incredible transformation. Coming to the United States from Mexico, she wanted to live out the American dream. She thought that included taking a job at Planned Parenthood, America's largest abortion business. After she witnessed falsified documentation, dangerous abortion complications, and failure to report crimes at the affiliate she led in Arizona, Mayra took a stand. As a whistleblower, Mayra went public with the crimes and maltreatment taking place at Planned Parenthood. When Planned Parenthood fired her, she sued and won for wrongful termination. Her story shows the need to be a voice for the voiceless and to defend the most vulnerable. So many moms will relate to her story of courage and conviction.
