More quotes by Iyanla Vanzant
Feminine power is silent, dark, mysterious, healing, nurturing. A woman can walk into a room and control it. She doesn't even have to open her mouth if she knows where her power is.
Iyanla Vanzant

You have set standards for how you want to be treated and what you expect from yourself and for yourself.

WE [black women] HAVE ADAPTED TO A SOCIETY THAT DOES'NT HONOR US.

You cannot experience the fullness of your authentic self or life when you live to avoid hurt. You will never know the joy of love or the peaceful satisfaction of being loved if you hide from hurt.

You know that you've healed an issue when you can talk about it and you're not weeping, when you can speak to it and identify the lesson. You know that you've healed an issue when, having gone through that, has a benefit that you live today.

You will stumble at time, forget what you want, fall headfirst into your old habits and beliefs. Fear not! Always remember to be patient and loving with yourself and others because that is what God does all the time.
Iyanla Vanzant
Be patient with yourself. Be gentle with yourself. Know that all things are working in your favor. If you take one step toward the light of Spirit, Spirit will take five steps on your behalf.

Gossip is when you have a malice of intent or mindless, third-party conversation to someone about someone, something you haven't said to that someone.
Iyanla Vanzant
Acceptance means that you know, regardless of what happened, that there is something bigger than you at work. It also means you know that you are okay and that you will continue to be okay.
Iyanla Vanzant
Have the courage to speak your mind and tell the truth from a position of love rather than anger or fear, being open to accept the views of others without feeling threatened or defeated, relinquishing the ego's need to be in control by demonstrating the willingness to do whatever it takes to establish peace.
Iyanla Vanzant
Be willing to share all of who you are. So many of us want a partner, but we're not willing to show all of us.
Iyanla Vanzant
I learned that telling the truth was a big part of loving yourself.
Iyanla Vanzant
I've always told the truth. I think that's been part of the foundation of my career. I don't put myself above people. I don't put myself different than people. And I, for one, know that none of us is immune.
Iyanla Vanzant
You must be willing to examine and explore your dark side. You must acknowledge how bad you can be and how horribly unloving you can behave. When you know how deep and dark your dark side is, it helps you stand a little taller in the light.
Iyanla Vanzant
What I am doing how I am being as I am doing it and does it bring honor to my community? What is the lesson in what I am doing? And most importantly, am I having fun?
Iyanla Vanzant
When you have something to do life will not allow you to ove foward until you do it.
