Sisterhood with Nina Cemone Wight, Raiyonda Vereen and Ariel Lomax

Season 1 Episode 10 | This week I have my sistas on the couch. Join us as we talk about sisterhood, love, relationships, boundaries and much more. I pray that all of the women out there have a village of women that supports and pours into them like mine, because I truly don't know what I'd do without my girls. Get into the kiki that I had with my girls @raiyonda @ninacemonewright @loveari_2112 !! #KIPS

This was so inspiring. I'm almost ashamed to admit this, but I am 36 years old and don't have any female friends. This is something my heart desires greatly. More importantly Godly woman. This gave me hope! It seems like a lot of people are not open to new friendships.

[@annanims7876]

No need to be ashamed, it's more common than you think. Continue to be hopeful! My prayers go out to you.

[@melissagoodrich]

@@annanims7876 thank you so much!

[@greercarletta]

Same here! Hope you find sisterhood .

[@melissagoodrich]

@@greercarletta Thank you! I hope the same for you as well.

[@monicaoliver8156]

Ask and you shall receive! Ask God to send you the female friendships you need and be open to who comes....or are already there, and you haven't noticed yet ❤

[@Welcometothenow]

Crystal, what you have is a goldmine. This is what life is about - healthy relationships. Some of us don’t have this, like myself. God brought you all together. This is beautiful to watch.

[@clarawashington9785]

So many people put some much weight on romantic relationships, but there is something so amazing and priceless about Sista friends. Your Sistas will see you through everything! Good bad and in different. Thank you for shining light on it. My Sistas have been my light so many times in life

[@nessabling9]

This was a tearful episode so much love and support among these sistas ❤

[@sharrellstanley7343]

I just finish watching this episode! I knew it was going to be good. It definitely was a safe place. My love language in a friendship is words of affirmation, quality time, a little gift giving. Tomorrow I'm going to check on my best friend. Thank you ladies for being authentic, honest, vulnerable. You definitely help me out today. We going to need a part 2 😂♥️💪🏾 #sisterhood p.s. you didn't say I was going to be crying but I needed it. Love ya

Thank You Chrystal for the laughs ....Always a good time....."Such a safe space"....To Lil Sis who shared the intimate bedroom story.....girl brace yourself cause marriage offers are going to be falling out the sky after they hear that one!! See you next week😘

[@sadehawkinsnychomelessness]

I am up at work and I am truly grateful for this friendship dynamics. The testimonies shared during this episode…inspired me to be a better friend and to also continue working on my spiritual journey. This episode made me cry …it made me laugh and it made me pray.💛💛💛💛💛

[@andreasanaya447]

This was so refreshing and real. No one pulling hair, using profanity at each other and just being plain old messy. As I have matured, I see the value and the bond that I have developed with two friends of mine. Priceless…

[@amajors08]

I laughed, I cried, I got a good word and appreciate the positive VIBE ❤

[@keiasnow4138]

I’m 🗣️this episode was sooooooooo good!!! A lot of confirmation, information, and affirmation I received from this one episode🙌🏾 Friendships are important and being authentic, supportive, loyal, and communicating is a MUST… Showing your appreciation, gratitude, friendship love language is very important…. SisterHood and your Safe Space means so much this episode really has given me all the answers I’ve been looking for and I want to say thank you Ms. Crystal ❤ I’m going through finding me and I’m growing through leaving people that doesn’t serve me any purpose…. Keep it Going Sweetie because you will get there 🙌🏾❤️😘

[@Jaylove777]

This is everything! Love it! It’s never too late to pray for a good girlfriend! I met my now bestie in our late 30s, approaching 40. I literally prayed for her. I was new in the area and needed to build a circle of good local friends. Never be ashamed to pray and watch God work! Both of us had been praying for that type of friendship. Has it been easy? Naah, a close sisterhood is intentional and will require work on both sides. It’s been refreshing. Nothing against people who say their spouse is their best friend, but it’s helped my marriage to not put so much expectations on mine, and to have an outlet.

[@IvyShaunta]

What a great hour of authenticity and transparency. Skee wee Sisters! 💕💚

[@msvanessaceo]

This was a necessary conversation. When I meet people now at age 41, I ask myself what is the purpose in our meeting, what part am I called for and them as well. God is awesome. Thanks for sharing this👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@ChillAndOutTheWay]

At 40, I feel the exact same way when I encounter new ppl now! Chiiiiile MY time is soooo valuable, that I really only want to spend it around good, genuine ppl, who authentically love God, knows how to have fun, are knocking out goals and are doing good in this world! Thasssit!🤌🏾😂

[@MsNetouu]

Jesus, the lady in the green is funny as hell. That swallowing story is crazy.😅😂😂😂

[@dnaaa99]

Thsi was an amazing episode every woman definitely needs to hear and watch to realize we all have gone through something we may not be proud of but having safe sisters to heal and learn with is so important

[@itaketripswithebony5668]

OMG! When u started reading the letter from Ebony... im like did I write this and not remember?!?!?? Literally word for word is how I feel! I had to pause the video JUST TO WRITE this comment. Here I am Ebony, but 40 yrs old with the SAME EXACT PROBLEM!! 😮

[@thea7418]

I hate she put her age in it bc as you stated it don’t stop. Only thing is she can learn early, be true to you first. Some people will take your good heart for weakness. It's important to know your worth and self wholeheartedly.

[@chaneldesmond4831]

This episode was spectacular! Exactly what I needed. Was right on time!!! Thank you for this!

[@annedumornay95]

I thank God in one of the toughest seasons of my Life I learned to love myself again and trust God's will for my life! Surrendering and learning the Art of Detachment! I learned to release others who are no longer serving me with Love and Kindness! ❤🎯🎉

[@Olabernt]

This was so much worth watching.. crystal you are so inspiring and doing a great job.. God bless you dear❤

[@nixx03]

This episode hit differently...my goodness! So many great points made, and I heard it all clear as day. Thank you to each one of you beauties! 💞

[@babyrheas]

Speaking of "Going Through" Crystal you have me "Going Through" my KZbin Alerts to find this treasure of a conversation that was open and honest. I'm "Growing Through" watching all of your videos to catch up and make sure I didn't miss any conversations that inspires me to be my best self. I just love your spirit❤❤

[@cherylgalloway4511]

I just listened to this....I really enjoyed it. Nina, I loved her personality. She sounds like a real one. Over-all I enjoyed everyone's insightful take on Sisterhood. I have 3 Sistas over 30 years stron. Blood couldn't make us any closer or stronger. We definitely keep it authentic!

[@KSade-cv8ib]

This was a great episode! Such a blessing to have a good sisterhood and support system

[@yoshi1288]

[@user-mimic-w4u]

Great episode, this really opened my eyes to kind of tap into the type of friend I have been over the years. Thank you for that. I have a need to journal and start working on myself.

[@kimsjewelryjubilee]

If I tell you this has helped me in sooo many ways, especially Spiritually, THANK YOU CRYSTAL!!!!

[@reginaroberts5070]

Thanks for this! So many gems and appreciation this conversation. We don’t talk about the grief we experience during the loss of friendship/sisterhood. Honesty Accountability Grace What are the Love languages of friendship! 🎉 literally was typing this before u mentioned it.

[@kikishaw2367]

this was healing for me ..thankful for you and your sisters being transparent..

[@TB330806]

This type of atmosphere is what I need and what I love. Thank you so much for this podcast and for this amazing post. A group of inspiring, beautiful, driven, honest, and loving women🫶🏾🥰

[@mikeetanewsom2604]

I loved this episode! It was so so good! I am extremely blessed and thankful for my tribe! My girls! My sistaz!

[@michellestarksdc]

Another great episode! My friends and I are probably 10+ years older than you all and yet I grabbed some nuggets from this episode and want them to watch with me so that we can discuss. I will also suggest my daughter watch with her friends. We're both blessed to have some true ride or "live" sister friends and I think they'll enjoy the conversation you had with your sister friends. Thanks for sharing week after week and pouring into so many people.

[@user-tf9pg4fi7u]

Thank you! This episode is amongst the top 3. I first came across you, Crystal, from Sistas! I was so impressed with (1) your life testimony (2) ministry, KIPS is a ministry touching & changing people’s lives (3) your work ethics and finally (4) your humbleness. God has blessed and surrounded you with people that truly love and care about you. Your light shines through. Your relationship with the Ellises is truly inspiring. Keep letting God use you!! Love & Prayers to you always!!❤

[@ShanteaSimone]

Love this episode I’m in my late 30’s and have never had a group of sister friends. I have struggled for years…with so many insecurities, feelings of low self worth that I couldn’t let the right ppl in. I always associated and felt comfortable with ppl who were in the same space of negativity as me. I pray God connects me with the right ppl and I can have a good group of sister friends that I can learn and grow from and truly be my authentic self with one day soon. So refreshing to see this thank you for this episode

[@msanonimous2011]

This was so wholesome. You are what you attract & all these ladies seem amazing. ❤

[@shaylamontgomery9023]

Hello Ms. Crystal, I just want to say I love love your podcast , I have been watching since day one launch and I can truly say you have shed some light in so many areas and by having guests on your show that also share things that they've been through makes it even better as everyone goes through different things at different times but some what have experienced a little something in all areas you ladies have spoken of .....These words of affirmation are going to help a lot of us get through whatever it is we are going through ...God bless you for having this podcast and for everyone sharing the most inner experience and hardship and to know even successful women go through things as well ...keep doing what you're doing your show is powerful and an inspiration to all women around the world......Love you 🫶🫶

[@cw1450]

This was a good episode I had to let some friends go as you say purging season it was a level of success I was embarking and some was not happy not knowing that we can win together similar to what you mentioned Crystal. I never hated on anyone's else success because I never wanted to block my blessings and God's timing for me. I also have been there for many people helping on projects that I neglected my own projects this was time to refocus on myself. This was a great episode to reflect.💙⚜

[@BriaBarrows]

[@LeslieDelshaun]

Some of my friends and I have to rebuild around “so-called” friends that pulled away w/o warning. So good to hear about genuine friendships with no limitations.

[@ebonyspencer7708]

I love the transparency and each woman has a different opinion and background, they’re genuine and real. Keep it coming

[@shaniahtaufa]

This episode feels like watching your four big sisters share gems in their authentic selves and spreading that wholesomeness :) I felt like this episode had built courage in me to keep it going and that's what Imma do. As a 20-something year old, this is gold. Saving this so I can always come back to it for a pick-me-up. I love love y'all and for sharing y'all stories! Real talk.

[@High_space2024]

Finally, been waiting for this 🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾🧡💛💚🤎🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@kionaholmes6808]

I only have two girl's I'am close to that I can tell you that one I felt close to with like a sister and the other is like family to me and I felt this spoke to me in a good way, because the friend who's act like a sister to me is the person i'am close with and the other who is like family to me, I'am always with them everywhere, but no matter where I go, I open up truly close and I've learned the true definition of helding space. This felt so real to me and I'am still at 26 yrs old trying to find female friend's who won't turn against me or act funny, and to be honest I tell my truth to other's because of experience. but I like how you women come together and discuss the purpose of what female friendship is truly like.

[@yolandaslade1059]

The laughter with the screaming reminded me of my days in college with my friends. Whenever we got together and started cracking up, it was loud and hilarious LOLLL, love it!
