And we're going through the whole 17 00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:14,000 Speaker 3: process of everything, but having to deal with the trauma 18 00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:16,920 Speaker 3: that my daughter. My daughter is grown now, she's an adult, 19 00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:20,720 Speaker 3: she has her family, but having now to deal with 20 00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:27,240 Speaker 3: her trauma and her healing and emotional breakdowns as she 21 00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:30,680 Speaker 3: has and everything, because now it's real having to go 22 00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:35,360 Speaker 3: through the betrayal of family. How did you deal with that. 23 00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:39,600 Speaker 3: How did you overcome that. That's something that's very hard 24 00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:42,720 Speaker 3: for me, especially the betrayal of my own family turning 25 00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:45,679 Speaker 3: their backs on us and everything. So I just need 26 00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:46,800 Speaker 3: some guidance. 27 00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:52,920 Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, Cynthia. First off, I'm very, very very 28 00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:56,560 Speaker 1: sorry for what you're going through. I feel your pain. Literally, 29 00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:01,040 Speaker 1: I know exactly what you're going through, your daughter's going through. 30 00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 1: I am living proof that we can survive this and 31 00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:09,120 Speaker 1: thrive from this pain. Just know that it took me 32 00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:13,280 Speaker 1: a long time to realize that God's plan is perfect 33 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:16,320 Speaker 1: because you think, okay, well, if God's plan is perfect 34 00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:18,200 Speaker 1: and he exists, then why did this happen to me? 35 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:20,760 Speaker 1: And that's very easy, and that's a normal question, and 36 00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:26,120 Speaker 1: I get that. But just know that God gives the 37 00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:30,040 Speaker 1: toughest battles to those that can overcome it. So I 38 00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:31,800 Speaker 1: know that you guys will and I'll be praying for 39 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:36,080 Speaker 1: you guys. The betrayal of a family member. In my case, 40 00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:40,200 Speaker 1: it was my dad who sexually abused me. And I 41 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:43,120 Speaker 1: think the first thing is Babe forgiving and I know 42 00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:45,280 Speaker 1: that that is hard right now and this is a 43 00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:48,440 Speaker 1: very fresh wound, but the fastest way to heal that 44 00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:51,119 Speaker 1: wound is by forgiving, even if that person ever asks 45 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:53,920 Speaker 1: for forgiveness or admits to it. My dad has never 46 00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 1: done either. You and your daughter have to find it 47 00:02:57,520 --> 00:02:59,519 Speaker 1: in your heart to just forgive and just say, look, 48 00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 1: I'm not excusing what he did, but I'm going to 49 00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:05,200 Speaker 1: forgive that person and I'm going to stay away from 50 00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:08,400 Speaker 1: that person now. In regards to your family, that happened 51 00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:10,960 Speaker 1: as well to my mom and I to all of us. 52 00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:14,320 Speaker 1: His entire family called me a liar for years and 53 00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:16,520 Speaker 1: didn't talk to me for years. And now some of 54 00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:19,000 Speaker 1: my cousins are coming around and I'm open to speaking 55 00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:21,520 Speaker 1: to them. We don't speak about the subject, but of 56 00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:25,880 Speaker 1: course that's their uncle, that's their brother, that's you know. 57 00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:27,520 Speaker 1: So it was very hard and it did cause a 58 00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:29,399 Speaker 1: lot of division. But those who are meant to stay 59 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:31,360 Speaker 1: in your life will be there. And I think you 60 00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:34,480 Speaker 1: just need to know that, like God is shifting something 61 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:36,200 Speaker 1: in your life right now, and he's healing a lot 62 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:38,720 Speaker 1: of things, and he's going to remove whoever's not meant 63 00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:41,480 Speaker 1: to move on with you in the next stage of 64 00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:43,040 Speaker 1: your life. And that's how you have to see it. 65 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:45,160 Speaker 1: And I know it's a lot easier said than done. 66 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:47,080 Speaker 1: But another thing that has helped me since I was 67 00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:51,720 Speaker 1: twelve years old was therapy, and I always say it therapy, counseling, 68 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:53,760 Speaker 1: life coaching. All that is going to help you and 69 00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:56,200 Speaker 1: your daughter. You guys should go individually and together as 70 00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:59,400 Speaker 1: a family. And another thing Cynthia that may help both 71 00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:03,440 Speaker 1: of you is reading both of my books. I have Forgiveness, 72 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:07,600 Speaker 1: which talks a lot about my experience, and then Unstoppable 73 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:09,520 Speaker 1: I touch about it a little bit because I really 74 00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:12,520 Speaker 1: believe that forgiveness is so healing and gives you the 75 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 1: wings to fly, and you have to start realizing that 76 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:17,760 Speaker 1: it's okay to live without some of these people. And 77 00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:20,440 Speaker 1: it's going to be painful, but embrace that pain and 78 00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:23,599 Speaker 1: grow from it and learn from it. And when you 79 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:25,800 Speaker 1: feel weak, just think of me. And I don't say 80 00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:30,839 Speaker 1: that thinking I'm invincible, but I just I went through 81 00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:32,920 Speaker 1: it and it was very hard, but it's okay. Like 82 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:34,760 Speaker 1: when you get back up and you're you're up and 83 00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:38,400 Speaker 1: going gono with your head held high, you are going 84 00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:42,520 Speaker 1: to become stronger and little by little invincible for real, 85 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:45,200 Speaker 1: because this is going to only make you, guys, stronger 86 00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 1: and wiser. So I am praying for both of you, 87 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 1: and leave your brother in God's hands, and everyone who 88 00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:55,080 Speaker 1: doesn't want to be a part of your life because 89 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:58,000 Speaker 1: you are choosing to have your daughter's back, which you should. 90 00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:01,479 Speaker 1: I die yos you know, leave them all in God's hands, 91 00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:04,719 Speaker 1: and don't please do not hold any resentment in your 92 00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:07,400 Speaker 1: heart because that will only affect you. So I hope 93 00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:09,039 Speaker 1: that I was able to help you and give you 94 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,839 Speaker 1: some peace of mind and in your heart, and always 95 00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:15,360 Speaker 1: hold on to God's hand and pray your way through this, Okay, 96 00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:21,880 Speaker 1: sending you both a very, very big hug. Okay. So 97 00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:25,159 Speaker 1: our next question comes from an anonymous listener. 98 00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:28,880 Speaker 4: Let's see, hey cheeks, I just wanted to ask you, 99 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:31,159 Speaker 4: how do you deal with or I guests dealt with 100 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:33,960 Speaker 4: the pressure to keep it all together at all times. 101 00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:36,720 Speaker 4: Just a little backstory. I am the youngest of four. 102 00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:40,840 Speaker 4: My father passed away when I was two, and now 103 00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:44,280 Speaker 4: that I'm an adult and I busted my bud to 104 00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:46,839 Speaker 4: get where I'm at. I now support my mother and 105 00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:50,680 Speaker 4: brother financially, along with having my own kids and husband. 106 00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:52,360 Speaker 2: We do help each other. 107 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:54,440 Speaker 4: My husband and I work, and my mother and brother 108 00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:57,080 Speaker 4: help with the kids and keeping up with our house. 109 00:05:57,520 --> 00:06:00,080 Speaker 4: There are times where things come up and I I 110 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:04,400 Speaker 4: can't do certain things, like say, car breaks down, or 111 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:08,320 Speaker 4: you know, money's tight or whatever the situation is, And 112 00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:11,240 Speaker 4: yet nobody seems to believe me. They just say, you 113 00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:13,719 Speaker 4: make good money, you don't need help, But they're not 114 00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:16,560 Speaker 4: all lucky at the money that I have to put 115 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:19,480 Speaker 4: out every month. And at times it gets really frustrating 116 00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 4: that I'm busting my butt and I don't seem to 117 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 4: get any credit for it. And above all, I have 118 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:27,560 Speaker 4: to keep it all together because I'm not a punk. 119 00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:30,560 Speaker 4: Do you feel me? But there are just some days 120 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:32,520 Speaker 4: that I just need a day to breathe. And I 121 00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 4: just wanted to get some advice from you on how 122 00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:38,000 Speaker 4: you deal with having the big responsibility to be your 123 00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:41,000 Speaker 4: mom's right hand man, basically because it comes with a 124 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:41,679 Speaker 4: lot of pressure. 125 00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 1: Oh babe, well, you're definitely not a punk, I'll tell 126 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:48,280 Speaker 1: you that much. Because what you're doing. I commend you 127 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:50,480 Speaker 1: for it. I think it's a beautiful thing that you 128 00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:53,160 Speaker 1: are helping your mother and your brother, But you have 129 00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:55,800 Speaker 1: to be careful with not spreading yourself too thin because 130 00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:58,840 Speaker 1: you're doing a great thing, absolutely, but that can turn 131 00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:02,400 Speaker 1: into resentment fairly quickly. There's a very thin line there, 132 00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 1: so you have to give yourself time and if it 133 00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:08,400 Speaker 1: becomes too much in reality, you're gonna have to make 134 00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:12,080 Speaker 1: a decision, because yes, you make great money and that's amazing, 135 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:14,880 Speaker 1: but you should also be able to enjoy your life 136 00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:17,560 Speaker 1: and not just have to take care of everyone else. 137 00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:21,480 Speaker 1: You know, what does that mean, taking vacations or having 138 00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:24,640 Speaker 1: some extra money, some extra cushion for a rainy day. 139 00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:26,560 Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean, if you work your butt 140 00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:28,440 Speaker 1: off as much as you do and as much as 141 00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:32,040 Speaker 1: you're saying, you deserve to enjoy that as well. And 142 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:35,520 Speaker 1: I'm not saying to stop providing for your mom and 143 00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:37,960 Speaker 1: for your brother. I don't know what the situation is exactly, 144 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:40,240 Speaker 1: so it's hard for me to say too much, but 145 00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:42,320 Speaker 1: you do have to be able to express this to them, 146 00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:45,000 Speaker 1: let them know how you're feeling. And if your brother 147 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:47,760 Speaker 1: can get a job, then that would be amazing. For 148 00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:49,880 Speaker 1: a long time, it was tough. It was a lot 149 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 1: that I just had so much responsibility at such a 150 00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:55,640 Speaker 1: young age, and I'm grateful though I wouldn't change anything 151 00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:59,920 Speaker 1: because it's helped me become a very responsible woman. It's Okay, 152 00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:02,720 Speaker 1: say no. Sometimes it's actually a good thing. There's a 153 00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:05,240 Speaker 1: lot of power in saying no, no, thank you. I 154 00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:08,720 Speaker 1: don't feel comfortable. I'd rather not. You don't have to 155 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 1: be mean about it, but you are going to have 156 00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:14,559 Speaker 1: to for your sake, for your sanity, little by little, 157 00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 1: because you're going to really deplete yourself and bring yourself 158 00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:19,880 Speaker 1: out and then you're not gonna be able to do anything. 159 00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:22,120 Speaker 1: Imagine you know, you're going to fall into depression or 160 00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:24,240 Speaker 1: you get sick or something like. You need to find 161 00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 1: a U day. That's one thing. Find some balance in 162 00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:28,320 Speaker 1: your life and say, okay, like I'm going to do this, 163 00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:30,160 Speaker 1: this is what I can do. You guys are going 164 00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:32,320 Speaker 1: to have to come in and do the rest. You know, 165 00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:34,880 Speaker 1: I'm going to put in sixty percent. Can you guys 166 00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:37,040 Speaker 1: do the forty percent? You know something you have to 167 00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:40,360 Speaker 1: find a compromise because it doesn't sound fair. But again, 168 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:42,320 Speaker 1: I don't know the situation, so I don't know if 169 00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:44,360 Speaker 1: your mom is sick. I hope she's not. But it's 170 00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:46,600 Speaker 1: a lot, babe. It's a lot for you and your husband, 171 00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:48,840 Speaker 1: and that can also cause issues between you guys as well. 172 00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:51,840 Speaker 1: So find some type of compromise. I think it's important 173 00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:54,560 Speaker 1: to discuss this like openly and say this is how 174 00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:57,880 Speaker 1: I'm feeling. Express it. Don't leave that inside. And next time, girl, 175 00:08:57,920 --> 00:08:59,160 Speaker 1: leave your name. Okay, I want to know who I'm 176 00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:05,600 Speaker 1: talking to. Thank you for your question. Alrighty, So third 177 00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:06,800 Speaker 1: question comes from. 178 00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:10,839 Speaker 5: J heychie Geese. My question to you is what made 179 00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:13,200 Speaker 5: you become a singer? You know a lot of people, 180 00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:15,360 Speaker 5: like I said, they always say, oh, because of your 181 00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:18,160 Speaker 5: mom your mom. No, you know, there's probably just a 182 00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:20,800 Speaker 5: different story behind it. I read your books, so trust me, 183 00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:24,520 Speaker 5: it motivates me every day. Literally, I know the true story. 184 00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:26,400 Speaker 5: A lot of people say about you know what was 185 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:28,679 Speaker 5: going on in the past. They don't know your story. 186 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:31,240 Speaker 5: But like I said, my question to you is what 187 00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:32,440 Speaker 5: made you become a singer? 188 00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:36,360 Speaker 1: Thank you, Jay, I love your question. Thank you, and 189 00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:38,920 Speaker 1: thank you for reading my books. Tell everyone to read 190 00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:40,480 Speaker 1: my book, okay, so that they can get to know 191 00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:44,160 Speaker 1: me better. Okay, So what made me want to become 192 00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:50,000 Speaker 1: a singer? It's something that I always had curiosity about 193 00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:53,080 Speaker 1: because I was born in a musical family. Since I 194 00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:55,600 Speaker 1: was born, I was working at the Swamp Meet. I've 195 00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:58,440 Speaker 1: been around music my entire life. Well, I even say 196 00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:01,080 Speaker 1: this in my book that Charlie no Sanchez was my Nino. 197 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:02,840 Speaker 1: I would call him Nino. So I mean, I've been 198 00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:05,800 Speaker 1: around artists my whole life. My grandpa started everything, so 199 00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:08,480 Speaker 1: it's like a whole story. But it was always something 200 00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:13,080 Speaker 1: that called my attention, and I think it was more 201 00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:16,680 Speaker 1: fear in the beginning, especially like when I was younger. 202 00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:18,560 Speaker 1: I got on stage for the first time at ten 203 00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:20,800 Speaker 1: years old, and I really liked it. People clappying and 204 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:22,720 Speaker 1: cheering for you. It felt nice, you know, and I 205 00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:25,480 Speaker 1: remember that feeling, and little by little would go away 206 00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:27,720 Speaker 1: because then you go to school and people start saying 207 00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:30,120 Speaker 1: things and fear starts coming into your mind and we 208 00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:33,160 Speaker 1: get programmed with all this fear and insecurity and stuff. 209 00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:34,880 Speaker 1: So I just stepped away from it for a little bit. 210 00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:36,640 Speaker 1: And then I was focused more than anything with my 211 00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:39,680 Speaker 1: mom and building her career, so I didn't really focus 212 00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:42,960 Speaker 1: on myself and my dreams. And once I moved out 213 00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:45,480 Speaker 1: and I was no longer working with my mom and 214 00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 1: taking care of the kids and stuff, then I said, Okay, 215 00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:49,760 Speaker 1: this is something I want to try. I don't want 216 00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:52,240 Speaker 1: to live with the what if. So yes, I guess 217 00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:54,040 Speaker 1: it has to do with my mom, because that's my mom, 218 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:56,880 Speaker 1: and she was like my biggest inspiration. Of course, like 219 00:10:56,920 --> 00:10:58,880 Speaker 1: I'm like, wow, I looked up to her, but it 220 00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:01,240 Speaker 1: was also something that I had deep down inside my heart. 221 00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:02,960 Speaker 1: I mean there were times when I was like sixteen 222 00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:05,520 Speaker 1: years old and I'd be driving and I would envision 223 00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:08,880 Speaker 1: myself on stage or people yelling and screaming, and I 224 00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:10,920 Speaker 1: wasn't sure if it was singing, but I knew it 225 00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:12,880 Speaker 1: had something to do with being on stage. So I 226 00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:15,000 Speaker 1: was like, I gotta do it, So thank goodness, I did. 227 00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:16,880 Speaker 1: I took a leap of faith. So thank you for 228 00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:19,640 Speaker 1: your question. Jay, I am sending you a big kiss 229 00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:26,640 Speaker 1: luck here you go. That's for you, baby.

So my 238 00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 2: question is to you, how do you deal with that. 239 00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:01,960 Speaker 2: I use a lot of sunscream and I have my 240 00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:05,839 Speaker 2: little creams, but it's not curable. It's just treatable. So 241 00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:08,320 Speaker 2: how do you handle it? 242 00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:12,000 Speaker 1: Oh, Gabby, thank you for your beautiful words.

I'm having a little bit of 249 00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:28,000 Speaker 1: a breakout because it's getting hot and my skin is 250 00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:29,760 Speaker 1: just so sensitive. So I feel you. I have my 251 00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:32,240 Speaker 1: creams too. I mean, I'm sure you know the dermatologists 252 00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:34,480 Speaker 1: and I have to prescribe you a certain cream.

For me, it's very 258 00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:51,640 Speaker 1: hard because I love chili, like and chili is something 259 00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:53,960 Speaker 1: that flares it up, like you know, spicy stuff, and 260 00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:57,720 Speaker 1: I love.
