Description:

Caller Jay: grew up in Arizona in a family of 10 with a father who had a sexual addiction and masked it by using his mother's credibility. Despite thinking he had a normal childhood, Jay began to act out with porn and lust and kept it a secret from his wife. With therapy, Jay and his wife stayed together and his sister opened up about her and Jay's experience of being molested by their father. Jay and his nine siblings then took action to remove their mother and two brothers from the home. Despite his desire for revenge, Jay wants to heal himself and his family, protect those around his father, and pursue both legal and spiritual avenues for justice. He takes ownership of his recovery and navigates the pain and anguish of his trauma.

He is a survivor of childhood sexual abuse and a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. He is navigating a difficult relationship with his father and working to protect his siblings from further abuse.

“I want to heal my family, heal myself, try not to reflect the trauma of my childhood on my own kids and work through my trauma.”
