Gun violence. Grief. Healing. Community. Almost 23 years after a murder in Newport News, Virginia, Latonya sits down with Gam and Mz Gogetta to tell a story that changed everything.The love of her life and the father of her child(Kaaleah) was killed, leaving her daughter to grow up never truly knowing the man who helped create her. The trauma sent Latonya down a dark road, forcing her to confront pain, anger, and the ripple effects of violence that most people never talk about.But this story doesn’t end in tragedy.Latonya turned loss into legacy.Instead of letting grief consume her, she created a nonprofit in his memory now doing powerful work in Newport News to combat gun violence, mentor youth, and address the real root causes behind the streets. From lack of resources to lack of guidance, she’s confronting the issues many communities ignore.And in one of the most emotional moments of the episode, Latonya shares how her child became the very thing that healed her broken heart.This isn’t just a conversation about loss.It’s about what happens when pain turns into purpose.And sometimes the people we lose still change the world.🔔𝐃𝐨𝐧'𝐭 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐠𝐞𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐮𝐛𝐬𝐜𝐫𝐢𝐛𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐥 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐮𝐩𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐬.https://www.youtube.com/@WaitAGamMinutePodcast/?sub_confirmation=1 ⭐⭐⭐Audio Podcast is currently on your favorite platforms:ApplePodcast:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/wait-a-gam-minute-podcast/id1554676679 Google Podcast:https://music.youtube.com/googlepodcasts ✅ Important Link to Follow🔗 Linktreehttps://linktr.ee/WaitAGamMinutePodcast🔗 Stay Connected With Us.Facebook: https://web.facebook.com/waitagamminutepodcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/waitagamminute/Website: https://waitagamminute.net/ 📩 For business inquiries: 1gamminute@gmail.com =============================🎬Suggested videos for you:▶️ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=77nh4cQcbpk ▶️ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F3_g3bvc4g4 ▶️ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y4SK5MaJ6nI ▶️ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yEGg8SyfidQ ▶️ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s1D_JVGzX6U ▶️ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QSVWS4cyNHY▶️ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=10rKVsG7hQ4 ▶️ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YLuaWmmVxpw ▶️ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p05Psl6TOcc ▶️ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vFC5FQV-Ruc =================================✅ About Wait A Gam Minute Podcast.Welcome to Wait A Gam Minute Podcast, the unapologetic and unfiltered podcast where real conversations happen.
