👏🏿👏🏿 I been saying the same thing for years! Those kids should never have been put in the middle and essentially made to choose a side. They couldn't have a healthy relationship with their father out of fear they'd hurt their mother. Their dad definitely had a part in it but miss E has never been willing to compromise because of her bitterness
@@mzurilovebeautyfragranceslove Yep, and I'm assuming mostly from Tina, then Erica and maybe Goo Goo & they're Mother. The thing is, they're gonna have to talk about their Father who has passed on, call him out on some stuff!😕😏
Mama E was shook bc she knew that their upbringing contributed to their behavior .... She's the old-school type that likes to cover everything up and mask the destruction with a pretty smile
I’ve been saying this for such a long time. You can see how she communicates her word is the say all, end all, be all, and she can’t handle anything that makes her less than perfect.
I didn’t like when they called Traci the Wannabe. That was straight shade from the beginning. A lot of their problems stem from their parents divorcing close to 20 years ago.
And she's the only 1 who isn't an executive producer of the show.. I'm just sooooo confused at this point with them. I prefer if it's just for publicity but I just don't know.
They've trained and bullied her into knowing her place in the sisterhood. By the way, F this sisterhood mess, they need. let go of that fallacy. They each have family's of their own. Old asses
That always baffles me when people get on fix my life knowing what it entails and get mad🤔 that's like me going on love and hip hop and getting mad that I'm put in crazy situations. You knew what it was when you signed up don't complain now either do it or shut up
Keiona Clark listen EVERYBODY knows that when you go on Iyanla fix my life you know the show you know what you sign up for AND FURTHERMORE you know what she’s about so I don’t know why ppl get mad when she calls you out on your bs that just irks my nerves
And I the preview for next week, she told her to shut-up. I'm here for it all. Tamar is damage, spoiled, and an ass to a lot of people. And it shows because the friends she's had aren't her friends any more.
I hate that ppl SEEK Iyanla, then treat her like she's imposing on THEIR life!! I can't with the ppl, ok? 🤦🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️😒 Michael, Sr. definitely ok with owning up with his part in the nonsense, it's that damn Ms. E! She is so stubborn. Women like that never see what's wrong in their behavior, especially when it affects the family as a whole. She's banked on the fact that her girls will always side with her, or too careful with HER feelings. She's too busy still being hurt from the infidelity, not realizing that divorce doesn't just affect the adults, kids catch the aftermath also. They've carried HER emotional weight for years, and that's not fair to them.
Redayvn Hughley exactly! It’s so sad I remember when the show first came on when my mother saw the mom she said “that’s one bitter women” you can feel it through the tv. I was like damn mama!
Yvonne Delories Yep! You asked “me” here and you going to be late. For real? I would’ve left too. You’re disrespecting my time so that means you’re disrespecting me. I’m out. You know? I don’t do “star” behavior.
Tracy DID tell them she was not going to strike. She said it while the sisters were on the phone together. Tracy said "I'm not doing it", and then hung up the phone.The sisters say it in the previous episode when they're talking about her. They gloss over it real quick. What the sisters wanted was, a discussion on why not and they wanted to be able to talk her into continuing the strike. Tracy didn't engage, she said no. so they're making it seem like they she's being slick about it. She DID tell them.
Tamar is so disrespectful!!!! She is too old for all this crazy mess. Ms. Evelyn has played a big part in why Tamar acts like that; too old to be SO CALLED Spoiled!
I haven't heard anyone connect the comments T.D Jakes made about how the parents never taught the girls how to resolve conflict and how Iyanla basically made the same parallel
I agree it is a double-edged sword with reality TV. Seems like the Braxtons want to still be in the spotlight plus have money. I saw the episode with Trina and her husband and they probably should never have sat down with Iyanla because they were not ready for her tough love attitude. Personally, therapy is something that should be done in private...
Barbara Samuel I used to have that bad and my family had it bad too but I got to a point in my life where I had to start taking responsibility for my actions and now I am NEVER late. And it really put my life on track and now I hate it when people r late it tells a lot about their character.
I been watching The Braxtons for years and they have tried several different life coaches and high profile preachers...TD JAKES and it seems no one can help them , the truth is this was about the MONEY......Their parents aren’t stupid they know the damage they did, the COVER UP is REAL. That’s why Tamar took her ass On Wendy to do damage control and threw Iyanla under the bus to deflect from her improper behavior.
Yep. It's about that paycheck. They not making alot of money....well, the amount they should compared to how much personal drama they sharing. I'm starting to.feelmsoret for them because since they were kids, ignorance have caused all sorts of issues and Toni had to take care of them all.
I am sooooo glad somebody can see the whole picture and not take sides or shame Iyanla, as if she’s suppose to hypnotize you to finally act like mature adults and get it together
It’s very interesting when Tony says she did not like how Tamar acts, I think she probably thinks similar about her mother behaviour, but I think Toni finds it difficult to communicate her disappointment with her parents, to her parents, just like how her other sister could not either. I believe Toni was like a mother to her sisters and almost like a sister to her mother considering the age gap between them is quite close. So to me it feels like Toni has been carrying the emotional weight of the family on her shoulders. This is evident in the fact she was prepared to forego her own career when her sisters were rejected by the record company and ever Toni helping them to get record deals and the reality show. Even though Toni holds the mothering role in the family, her mother still commands her children’s emotional loyalty. personally I think for the family to heal they all have to drop the ‘roles’ they have taken in the family, and reform the family relationships each of them approaching the relationship as there authentic self. I actually feel their father has come a way in his journey and seems to have quite a good relationship with each sister individually and him and Miss E are actually quite nice and respectful to each other when they meet. Each family member needs to reconnect with each other individually also.
I think you're spot on. And what Toni said about Tamar's animated behavior sounded just like what Iyanla said to Tamar, "Your behavior diminishes your message."
@@MusicIsLife-bc3gy IYANLA is very smart and intuitive ... she knew in advance how Tamar performs without words like a toddler (CALL A THING A THING) so that's why she asked Toni why and how she felt about how Tamar acts knowing that it was gonna come up/ show up again OF COURSE IT NEEDED TO BE SPOKEN OF. We all knew that Tamar eventually was gonna try that toddler mess on IYANLA (NOT ON MY WATCH BELOVED). I would also love to hear Iyanla ask Evelyn how she explains and feels about toddler Tamar's non-verbal behavior. Btw I just realized while watching this episode (as it's been said) that Tamar's toddler display is very much like how her Mom behaves. Evelyn would NEVER in my opinion admit to their similarities.
It's a Break down of Communication & that started with the Mom & the Dad. All of the Girls doesn't know how to communicate to each other effectively. So they Never resolve their issues with each other. Then they continue to talk about each other, among each other. Their is serious issues with Ms. E for how She treats Tracy & the Sisters treat Tracy. Excellent Review Ashley
After watching again I realize Iyanla was not addressing Tamar here. She was addressing all the Braxtons for allowing whatever issues they had with WEtv and/or production's unprofessionalism (and possible bias against black people) to grow and continue. When she addresses Tamar it was to let her know what she said..not that her message was wrong, but her delivery is, and that she allows them (WEtv and production) to exploit her and twist a story with the way she carries herself. Furthermore, the parents are the root of the dysfunction. The funny thing is, I think the father owns and accepts his role in it and only laughs off Ms. E in the episode because he's simply not engaged in the shenanigans with her anymore. Plus he is glad to be in this scenario because he wants someone to finally call her to the floor and get to the root of the issues. It takes two and most certainly the bitterness Ms. E still holds towards that man after 30 odd years..it surely and sorely manifests in each of the sisters in various ways. I really think Toni wasn't too bad a kid growing up, but ever since that record deal their mother took a step back with her (hence some of the foolish decisions and obvious favoritism). With the way they like to sugarcoat and cover shit up.. let me find out that with the apparent various molestations Tamar suffered, that her mother had her 'leave it to God' and never speak of it.
When iyanla went off at the end I just wanting Iyanla to say...NOT👏🏾ON👏🏾MY👏🏾WATCH!! Tamar acting like a twitching addict gets on my dame nerves. MS E from the jump knew she didn’t want to be there like iyanla said, she Wore red which is a fighting colour lol. And the moment the father said what happens in the house stay in the house, just speak volume as to why they are like that.
Before Fix My Life, Iyanla had a reality show called, Starting Over. Towanda was on this show. It was about 5 to 6 women who stayed together in a house and 2 Life Coaches helped them to focus on overcoming the one problem in their life that had stopped them from being successful. The show was on for about 3 seasons. Each season focused on 5 different women. I say this because the Braxtons, all of them, knows just what Iyanla can do for them. From Towanda being on Starting Over, they should know that Iyanla does not put up with any crap. Notice how Iyanla embraced Towanda first each time she hugged the family. Iyanla spent about 1or2weeks with the women who were on that show. Tamar should have known better. She was acting like a spoil brat. Now I love me some Tamar, but she was out of line.
I was so disappointed in miss E, she showed how stubborn and controlling she is. She likes to be in charge and the authorative figure, and felt threatened by iyanla. And that's exactly how her daughters act, she set the tone for them not taking the process seriously and that's so unfortunate since she's always saying she wants to see a change.
Mrs.Evelyn was the one that really made me mad . Not really she just finally showed her ass and who she truly is . Tamar is Tamar so I don’t expect nothing else but Mrs.E is something else the cover up is real . I hope they get it together
I’m gonna watch both shows back to back. I did see Tamar on Wendy Williams saying how she didn’t like the way things were done on the Fix My Life show. I won’t miss the Braxton Family Values if they do get canceled.
This was my first time watching the show. I didnt understand why the mother was so overly dismissive and combative with iyanla. Like, ya'll called her! Why was she there if she wasnt open to the process? And the way tamar way acting, had Ronda been there, tamar probably would've talked away with some missing teeth. 👊
Im just waiting for nexr week when Iyanla tells her to get her finger out of her face. Tamar and Ms. Eve acted disgusting. Then Tamar goes on Wendy acting innocent and on Steve saying neck rolling and all the dramatics is no longer her...this was weeks ago!
Baby , I’m 💯 here for Iyanla, I really appreciate the break down steps in how she is getting the family to really see things from another perspective. Also trying to get the family to heal not fix their lives . Iyanla is a spiritual life coach . She’s not a therapist. She provides you with the tools to help yourself.
Yes, I agree the show should come to an end. This 2 part season finale is fitting of a series finale. Ever since season 2, me and other viewers have been asking for Iyanla to help the family when Dr Sherry's best was not good enough for their issues.
I was waiting for your reviews! Perfect reactions and great contents. I think they had so much issues before TV, it’s not a curse, TV just amplifies whatever was shoved under the rug. Tamar is the younger Ms. Evelyn. P.s: what do you do for your lips to look good? I need pointers 😬 Ashley is feeling herself 😂😂😂😂😂
You say that the common denominator of the conflict between the sisters is the show, but I believe that it’s solely Tamar, her attitude & personality is the root to all the conflict between them! sorry not sorry
Tamar needs help... or to just humble herself and at least listen to understand. On another note, did HTGAWM sneak up on anyone else like it did me? Almost missed the first episode, Netflix will have you out here not knowing.
Lol there's a clip from like 2004 of tamar and towanda sitting with iyanla and talking about an issue. So they BEEN knew who iyanla was and how she get down. Trying to act brand new
Right because I don't always agree with you but I love your crazy upfront arse. But moving right along, Tamar likes to serve but doesn't like getting served, I can't stand her. Evelyn is full of it too, she was running. I agree they need to get the aggressions out, Tamar is an asshole and I agree with your closing statement.
I been peeped that Tamar act a lot like her mom. They want things their way. Tracy is always treated differently and she's the only one of the sisters that really deal with the dad. Its nit going to change anything unless the mom and Tamar stop the bs. And the dad and Tracy start speaking up.
Minute 18:00 is hits the nail on the head , in today's world critical thinking and objectivity are incorrectly classified as "hating". We fall for the cult of personality before we try to look ar a person or situation objectively.
All those bobble head movements that Tamar made was ENTIRELY unnecessary. Ms. E clearly doesn’t care about the situation like she say she do, cause her attitude this WHOLE episode proved that. I can not wait for this show to end, because all of this drama between each other is disturbing to watch, and having the cameras on the ALLL THE TIME probably doesn’t help the situation
Some Black mothers from Ms. Evelyn’s Generation have had a huge effect on their children whether good or bad. The only ones who really want things to change and change their souls are Towanda and Trina I think everyone else finds it extremely difficult to change and admit their flaws. Toni Braxton has NOT forgiven Oprah for that interview years ago where she kinda scolded her about her bankruptcy and choices she made. Toni is still bankrupt to this day because she can’t face her flaws and take ownership of her mistakes and deeply look at how things she does affects others, same as Tamar .
Toni isnt bankrupt anymore...but I agree she is still salty about it. Evwn though she said from jump she has not ill will towards her now that she is grown.
SOmetimes I think Ms. Braxton doesn’t want her children to be over it completely..I used to be on her side but for her to be totally free she needs to be less irritated by people’s opinions and decisions. I bet they gave Traci and ultimatum and she decided to do what she wanted and that Tamar never stood up when Traci came into the room did she?
Ms. E is so bitter it's sad to see the girls act just like their mom she (Ms.E ) is not open to healing she is complacent in how she has dealt with her divorce from Michael Sr. I also think the sisters are upset with Traci because she is close to their dad and his new wife but that's all Traci had Ms. E was with the girls touring if you notice you never see any of them visiting Traci or her son and Kevin Jr has seen how they treat his mom and likely why he didn't want them around. They treat Traci different they didn't do Tamar like this when she did her spin-off show Tamar didn't tell them about it right off she had been filming before the sisters even knew.
I feel like they always had deep issues they just tried to hide it when they first aired. The show slowly reveals true feelings that couldn't stay covered.
In the same place. Was a huge, huge fan of the show. Have several seasons on DVD and all. But, the show has ran its course. Once I found out Phaedra and Flavor Flav and New York and all of those random people would be on the show, that was the nail in the coffin for me. It was good while it was good.
Tamar was acting like a Middle School girl with no home training. Mrs Evelyn was just as worse.The mom just seem to be a mean bitter woman. A pattern her daughters seem to imitate. Tamar was not receptive to the help.
Your observation is 100% accurate!! Mama Evelyn I can tell she wasn't no walk in the park.. I understand why Mr. Braxton had to go find somebody elsewhere.. not that it made it right but a person got to do what they have to do at times in their lives even in their relationships... I can just tell she treated him with not much respect!! Made him feel less of a man... And she never thought that he would leave her.. And that just totally devastated her world.. Where she still haven't even recovered from it... That's why she can't even date anybody seemingly..
I love me some Tamar...as a singer. She's so talented. Honestly, I feel like she was the downfall of this show. That personality of hers is so ugly. It's disappointing. As far as Miss Evelyn, she has always thought she knows better. I doubted Iyanla would be able to get through to her. I think it's a shame.
We have to remember that Iyanla told Trina that she learned to be a mean and bitter woman from her mother. I think that struck nerve with all of them. All that is dormant will be put under magnify and exploited on reality television. I agree with you Ashley this show has torn their sisterhood apart. . The Braxtons would be better quitting the show and doing family counseling OFF CAMERA to save their family.
I was really shocked by Ms. E, I totally agree she should've stayed the hell home. You can still see the resentment she has to Mr. Braxton and it's been 30 years like she definitely needs healing.
Great video! I don't want the show to be canceled...I would love to see their path towards healing on television... it will help a lot of people. Most families have some type dysfunction... we're just seeing their issues on TV. We all have issues. Love your videos, sis!
Iyanla hit us with the "not on my watch" again. I find it funny they were talking about what's upsetting them in cliques and in confessionals but none of them knew why they were at the therapy session.
Evelyn needs to get over what her ex husband did. Sadly it happened but get over it! Michael has gone on with his life. She’s still griping and miserable. That mess is a cloud over the family. They can’t enjoy their life because mom don’t like dad, don’t want him there, etc. it’s draining. No genuine family connection.
Your lips really do look good, you stay looking like a whole moisturized snack. Thanks for providing humor and good energy to the world. We definitely need it. Thanks! :)
I didn’t even watch the episode but I appreciate your deep analysis of the episode. Thank you for this doctoral student who has NO TIME any more to watch this! 👍🏽👋🏽✊🏽
The way Tamar was throwing that bald head when Iyanna was talking was hilarious. Especially when Iyanna call her out for being a lier. The look on Tamar face was priceless.
It came out that Iyanla was telling off the crew because someone told Tamar that her call time was different so she ended up being late. She was acting up because Iyanla was telling the crew off. But Tamar DID cause Iyanla to go off on her as well. It was edited to make it look like Iyanla was straight tearing into Tamar at 1st.
The mom and Tamar are extra type of people. The production company don't have anything with your attitude because they only film what you give them I believe Tamar didn't wanted to be there because Iyanla read her and call her out for who she is. Next week she is asking for Traci forgiveness and by the expression on her face that she not her for that and the reason is because she have forgiven her so much that she don't trust her anymore.
