Hi Shifs,

You will want to include the following fields in your query:

Business_Goal__c (This is the ID field)
Business_Goal__r.Name (this is the Name field of the related Business_Goal__c record.

You will want to display Business_Goal__r.Name in your list.

Please let me know if this works for you.
