My sistah, friend and who I want to be when I grow up. Have followed her since the book One Day My Soul Just Opened Up. That title follows me from one year to the next. Some men can't ask for what they want because codependents don't always know what they want.
I identify with her as a female parent trying to raise an African American son in America. Yes, conditioning our sons to be their best selves and reinforce to them regularly that they originated from kings and queens.
Sir, thank you for your comnent. It actually makes me want to purchase the book even more! Would you mind sharing as little or as much, to exactly what impacted you most about the book and how it transformed you - and your life as a whole? Thank you in advance and please stay safe!
Iyanla is a proud black woman, black mother. We can feel her courage and pride when she speaks. She radiates confidence and she makes me proud to be a Black woman. Thank you Iyanla.
I loved this interview and this Iyanla! A pure perl of wisdom. But I must confess I have trouble with her modern self, for me she comes accross as very unhinged now.
I have read and listened to and watched Iyanla since the late 90’s. I ♥️ her. I have never heard this interview before today. Brilliant!! “As difficult as I made it”. WOW
Gm edagdwg thanks for sharing this story of what happens when you know God for yourself pay attention to what you know for yourself only God gives you what you need to be who you are love is real I'm soooooo blessed to know God for myself Linda j peace ☮️☮️☮️☮️☮️
Dont kno how I came across this......So eye-opening and refreshing to see her & hear Iyanla in her earlier yrs still authentic snd knowledge- filled, timeless.. Whoever finds fault in this woman have their own inadequacies needed to be dealt with!!!!
If you’re using that anger to blame yourself or others instead of using it as the drive to prove yourself to yourself or others then you’re using that energy wrong my friend.
It's amazing how women are always transforming themselves BUT a boy will stay in his childish ways...never transforming into a man. Alot of adults are overgrown children. I appreciate this woman's wealth of wisdom always
Iyanla is brilliant and such an inspiration, the interviewer is great, I love how she openly admires iyanla, nothing like two intelligent women vibing with each other 💖✨
Even before watching this video, I've always touched and gave thanks for my eyes, legs, thoughts, and etc. Also, that letter she read is something that I will practice when I have my own kids someday. I had an "aw ha" moment.
I love this interview I keep coming back everytime I need to ear this. ❣️This is a gift from Mother heart. She awakened her so that she could spread her message.
Courage wise strong woman a standard. A leader. May u continue to prosper and lead. Gotta feeling son will be alright. Down to earth and honest. I did they same a mother will neurture
Iyanla Vanzant did not get her early recognition or even now because of what she talks about. She talk about African ancestry and healing but they don’t want that mainstream but Love and Hip Hop and Housewives are. I love her and her wisdom
