- Season 2 Episode 8 | This week I sat down with my longtime friend Gocha, who has been through a lot and has turned her life around. Gocha is a walking testimony with a story to tell and spreads positivity wherever she goes. She's turned her trials into triumph, becoming a successful entrepreneur, opening a few restaurants and now even franchising them. God has had his hand on her and will continue to keep blessing her. I hope you enjoy meeting her!

I love her transparency! Her spirit is real. Best wishes for a beautiful future.
I agree and that’s what I loved most about this episode. Continue blessings and healing to her and her family.
I'm So Happy For Her!! When I First Met Gocha. Mannnnneeeeee I Was So Shy And Insecured With Myself. She Made Me Feel So Gorgeous As She Is. I Love And Admire Her. So Warm And Welcoming. She's So Amazing And Beautiful. God Bless Her. Thank U Gocha❤💕🥰🥳😘😘😊
She was on point about people willing to give you advice or help you with your business adventure. They fell to realize that there is enough wealth to go around. They fell to realize it could also be a blessing for them to help another individual. It is up to the person who has this feeling to build their brand. If you got it, no one can take that away from you. People who feel less than should find ways to draw your clientele.
I understand her feeling and I also understand where her kids pain come from as well. Only when I became a parent and functioning adult, then I faced my broken child who felt hurt that a parent was occupied with provisions over presence. It's a work in progress for both parties. With the right therapist then healing can start.
Ohhhhhh…” The Encourager needs Encouraging” my God I can relate to that.
We often have no one to turn too
I hope Gocha has had conversations with her kids and apologized for missing out on events that they’ve expressed to her has hurt them, the “get over it and let Mom live” comments shouldn’t be the response, in my opinion BUT I also understand that’s a trauma response even if they’re grown they’re gonna always need their mother and they’re going to wish she was there when they were younger even if you had to provide & you were the only one there. I’m a single mother, I completely understand I overcompensate because her father isn’t always available and financially able to help but just acknowledging your children’s pain and wishes that things were different is necessary. Great conversation we are all works in progress. God bless.
Good morning KIPS family!!! Anticipating another terrific Tuesday of greatness! Come on my sista from my other mista and feed our spirits! ❤
Good morning Chrystal....Good morning KIPS family.... .So grateful for another Tuesday. I'm trusting God to mend our broken hearts today.....I LOVE YALL💛🙏🏽💛

She’s amazing. Her story of perservance is inspiring.❤
Good morning Crystal, Gocha and KIPS family , this episode has me thinking I can't wait to hear this podcast. I know it will be another teachable moment .Thanks Gocha for sharing 🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾
Thank you so much for sharing your story. It is never easy when we share elements of our pain publicly.
I loveeee all Crystal’s guest.. they are so true and authentic ❤
I can relate to a lot of this topics that were discussed. I was molested at a young age and didn’t realize it until I got older. I struggled with addiction, I also am a single mother of 4 boys. Which I’m trying to build a better relationship with. But I have learn to accept that I can’t change what has happened to me. But only better myself and forgive, but not forget. But I definitely enjoyed this episode and got a lot out of it. Thank you again for an amazing podcast. I pray for both of your continued success. Have a blessed day.
Thanks so much for sharing and I thank God that you are an overcomer!
I know this podcast about to have me crying 😭🥹❤️✨i love you crystal and you inspired me ❤
Gocha’s journey is so empowering, grounding and real. Through it all she kept moving forward. The honesty about needing a therapist that she can connect to, embracing her identity and finding true love, & working with the flow of life and God’s guidance & finding FULFILLMENT even in her hardest seasons. I appreciate the honesty about her journey, it is such a blessed inspiration. Definitely refreshing! Thank you Crystal & Gocha sending love & blessings. 🤍🫶🏾
Wow! I can so relate to this young ladies life . I gave my kids to their father until I got myself together after being delivered from drugs and he refused to give them back.I a as only not totally out of their life even when he had them for 5 years. It's 30 years later and we still have issues with our relationship. They say that they understand I was sick and they don't hold anything against me but idk if it's necessarily that but it matters when u don't raise your own children. They were with me every summer, holiday ect, but it wasn't the same.
I love her Transparency...I definitely can relate to A few thing's she shared.Thank you for this episode

"Your living is in your giving" Crystal, you've always been giving. Thank you for allowing Gosha and others to share their stories through your platform. Gosha, your strength, courage and faith is admirable.
Crystal, thanks for showing me how to put on mascara and curling my lashes in our "pageant" days 😊 😉
My husband is with you God I still miss him. At times I feel so alone especially as a single mom. Since suffering a heart attack two years ago and my on going battle with lupus I’m overwhelmed. Both of my sons are autistic. I’m now homeschooling them so my hours to work are limited. BUT I TRUST YOU LORD! Thank you Jesus! Jesus please save us come soon I’m holding on and keeping faith. I keep faith even as I constantly struggle to provide for my kids and I constantly struggling to buy groceries. Thankfully I have you Lord! I know you will continue to provide you have this far. Faith over fear! Praise God and his son Yeshua! ❤
Good morning KIPS family. Excited to join with you today. Love this show. Thanks Crystal for say yes and creating this experience for us.
The entrepreneur spirit in my is RENEWED!!! I know God didn’t give me a vision for it not to come to pass!!! 🫶🏾🥰 God bless!!
This was an intriguing episode. Always get some good gentle reminders. 😊❤
She is beyond gorgeous. The both of you are and are survivors. Thanks for this. People don't realize that there is delivering power in their testimony. 💓
MYYYY God! Thank you Crystal 4 having Gocha on your show; your light shines through-past ALL that you have been through. Thank you 4 your life 🙌🏾🙌🏾
It's great hearing a parent perspective like this. For years I held it against my mom as well (most internally), until I started therapy. After having a conversation with her I understood she was just doing the best with what little knowledge and support she had. I would suggest you both try sitting down and speaking indepth of what occurred in the past and if that doesn't help maybe add a professional into the mix.
Thank both for such a wonderful episode 👏
I am so happy and so proud of how she has been able to bounce back from all she experienced in life and be successful in all she's doing. But I am going to lift her in my prayers that she will be able to find a therapist that she can connect with because listening to her journey, she has suffered a lot, and the fact that she is still dealing with the feelings of her children's feedback and other things, I know for a fact you definitely need therapy to unpack things that are buried deep inside, and it seems like she is just learning to function (and being successful at things) but all of what she's been through, I can still hear her silent cry. 🙏🏾😢❤
Gocha is so chill!! Luv her vibe
Great Episode. Enjoyed it. So proud for Gocha and her accomplishments after all she’s been through. What a strong and very inspiring lady. It’s no wonder y’all are great friends. Two very inspiring beautiful ladies!!
I love this episode with Queen Crystal and Goshay Hawkins Hynes that she has deal with In her life She has had an awesome turn around in her life. And what i'd like that, she said. Don't let your past Dictate your future Now she's a successful entrepreneur.

Great morning Queen ❤❤❤Thank you for sharing 🙏🏽 today. Always love and prayers
Gotcha was all up in my business. Because I help others but they want help me when I ask. I understand now why I'm blessed with the skills and the wealth will come if I just keep giving and living my life. This was such a good conversation.
This is my first time listening to the channel. I love all the positivity and inspiration! Hey Crystal!! Keep pouring into us beautiful ❤️

This is amazing! I can't state enough how much I love this podcast and hearing different success stories is motivating. I always say I have no regrets because I was able to learn valuable lessons in life.
This episode really hit home for me and the title of my new healing story and journey is SCARS When God Said Not Yet Recovery Mode ™️. Thank you Crystal for this platform and having real and raw unapologetic conversation. This hit me real hard being a sexual assaults survivor twice. Keep bringing topic that are relatable and transparent.
Very nice message I love how Goshay overcame so much and did not quit ❤
Crystal, please enlighten us wirh your therapist information because she seems amazing ❤

Great interview! Love me some Gocha!🥰 Her restaurants are definitely consistent!!
Great to see her and great conversation! Loved watching her when she was on tv working with Kim Kimble.
I remember Gocha from her salon in Orlando. She always been that girl..
Thank for your story I went through that with my cousin and uncle and it took me along time to forgive them I have learn to let go and let GOD deal with them
Good morning I really enjoyed just hearing her story and how she came threw all of her obstacles in her life
Crystal and Gocha,
First and foremost, I commend you both for being open and honest about your experiences, and for creating a space that invites vulnerability and growth. Your stories resonate on a deeply personal level.
Gocha, when you mentioned that woman who cited a 'conflict of interest' as her reason for not supporting you, I immediately felt connected to your narrative. There could be a myriad of underlying reasons for her stance. Perhaps she was afraid of building close relationships, or maybe the pressure to meet expectations was too daunting. Or it could even be personal shame stemming from her life's issues. However, despite these setbacks, your strength and resilience shone through, and you've achieved so much.
Your comments about not wanting a work-life balance intrigued me. I surmise it could be the thrill and fulfillment from your new venture that keeps your spirits high. Nevertheless, I hope in time you trust the structures you've built around your businesses. Sometimes when we're deeply involved in our work, we fail to see that we've already weathered the storm. Your radiant spirit deserves all the praise and acknowledgment.
And Gocha, my heart truly goes out to you for your past experiences. The fact that your violator never faced the consequences of his actions is heart-wrenching. But remember, his conscience will never let him rest easy. When I finally opened up about my own traumatic experiences, it took years for my mother to confront her own misjudgments. It was a revelation about her own nature, more than anything else
To Melody, who reached out on the show - always remember, one company's check isn’t the epitome of success. Life might be nudging you towards more significant opportunities. Don't lose hope.
Crystal, thank you for being the beacon of hope and for hosting such transformative discussions. This platform is a testament to healing and growth. I eagerly await your next episode, and I appreciate the love and energy you pour into this space.
TTYS Sis!
Good morning ladies. Hope you have a blessed and wonderful day ❤❤

Greeting to both of you
I can so relate to the council ingredient thing. I feel like this young lady. I need someone who has been through the same or similar to be able to help me. I feel like how can u council me or understand what I've been through if u never have been through it. I want council, but it would need to find someone that understands.
Much love to you
Ready set GEAUX
That still happens today I’ve been trying to step into online business and people live in other states but will not help you! I’m still pressing on and when I learn it all I will share I can’t be a gatekeeper I won’t be blessed being stingy!!
I just ate at Gocha’s Breakfast Bar for the first time this month with a virtual church friend I met during the pandemic. We finally met in person and had a great time.☺️
The food was so good! I had Crystal’s order.😂
Good morning everyone, make sure to like this video it helps Crystal
She done been thru some shyt.
Luv ur show😊❤😊
Wait cuz I need that shirt too Gocha cuz mine be tripping sometimes 🤣🤣🤣. I love her so much more now.
This guest is genuine . Gurl gurl!!!😂😂she can sit with me and gurls well, maybe cook a little😅😅.
I love your content and the messages presented, but for some reason the volume on the videos are low. I literally have my phone on blast or if watching on my TV it's on blast. Can you all look into this before next Tuesday? I listen while working.
I am going through the same how do I know when to let someone go as I love hard and don’t like to hurt others like they do me. But I am growing through learning how to Seek God, Jesus, Holy Spirit as they guide me to make the right Decisions.
I would encourage everyone watching and reading the comments to develop a personal relationship with God through Jesus Christ. No matter what you experience in life, he will see you through. As Christians, never compromise but always take a stand for God no matter what no one else is doing. Put God first in everything (your time, talent, and resources). Try to live a life that glorifies God. Our bodies belong to Him, so keep it holy (being set apart for Him), living according to His Word. ❤️🙏🏾 Keep in mind, what we permit, it what we promote.
