If I can inspire one victim to stop classifying themselves as a victim and start classifying themselves as a survivor and doing what they need to do to be a survivor, that's worth it to me.

In this episode of 'The Lighter Side with Jay', Skylar sits down with Jay Casale to share her incredible journey. By day, she's a self-proclaimed 'basic bitch' with a love for Pumpkin Spice Lattes, but by night, she transforms into the head of The Radar Dames Burlesque.

This episode is a rollercoaster of emotions, offering a mix of heartfelt moments and light-hearted banter.
