More quotes by Iyanla Vanzant
I now know that nothing in my life will change until I change the way I see my life and myself.
Iyanla Vanzant
As people, we have forgotten to be people. We know how to be doctors, lawyers, nurses, teachers, we know what to do, we know what to buy, but how do I just sit with you in your pain? How do I sit with you in your vulnerability and not betray you, not abuse you? We do not know how to do that, even in our homes.

Never judge your clarity based on someone else's response.

I took my kids everywhere. I didn't have money for child care, so I took them to college with me and they sat in the hallway.

With all things in life, we do not get what we ask for, we get what we expect.

Well the beauty of 'Iyanla: Fix My Life' is that men are in every show. To our surprise, some of the deepest healing demonstrations have been with the men - the sons, the fathers, the husbands - because they agree to participate with the wife or the daughter or whatever it is we are looking at, and it is there.

You're never healing the level you're on. You're always healing the level you came from. For example, you know things today that you didn't know in your first marriage.

Pain is pain, hurt is hurt, fear is fear, anger is anger, and it has no color.
Iyanla Vanzant
Stay in your car in your lane on your road in your world. Stay in your own lane. Don't be minding other people's spiritual business. Stay in your car. In your lane. On your road. In your world.
Iyanla Vanzant
When we believe we are losing control, we grab on tight. When our greatest fear comes upon us, we clench our fist and teeth, close our eyes and hold on. We must learn how to let go. When the time comes for growth and change, we must have the courage and faith to let go. Whatever leaves my life makes room for something better.
Iyanla Vanzant
If you are afraid to take a chance, take one anyway. What you don't do can create the same regrets as the mistakes you make.
Iyanla Vanzant
Parents are teachers, guides, leaders, protectors and providers for their children.
Iyanla Vanzant
People may not like what you do, people may not like how you do it, but these people are not living your life. You are!
Iyanla Vanzant
I pray because I am real clear that what I am doing and how I am doing it is my service, is my ministry, and so I want to be in perfect alignment with my creator. I do not care who you are. If I do not get the okay on the inside, you will not be showing up on the outside.

Most of us have just learned to exercise our survival muscle. It's time to build our victory muscle.
Iyanla Vanzant
What is it that would make a creature as fierce, majestic and powerful as a lion is, subject itself to the intimidation of a man a whip and a chair? The lion has been taught to forget what it is.
Iyanla Vanzant
My father never kissed me, hugged me or told me that he loved me. As my only living parent, he became the filter through which I saw myself, the possibilities for my life, the world and all men. He was a conflicted and dark filter.
Iyanla Vanzant
You know why the road curves as you're driving along? It curves because if God showed us the distance from where we are to where we’re going, we’d think it was too far.
Iyanla Vanzant
You`re demonstrating a courage that most people can`t even fathom: giving it all away in order to have yourself
Iyanla Vanzant
Gratitude is like a magnet the more grateful you are, the more you will receive to be grateful for.
