      I think the magic in this show and the great work she was doing got muddled when celebrities came forward. People get so caught up in idolizing someone that they can’t see them as imperfect. When the celebrities came I feel like too many turned their backs and tried to shame Ms. Iyanla to play nice, when that would be a disservice

    The male ego is a fragile, fragile thing. This "father" is so caught up in being the MAN OF THE, HOUSE he can't see how he's actually acting like a little boy. Brando is actually more of a man than he is. And the fact that a woman, a BLACK woman, is in his house and telling him that his behaviour is wrong is eating him. So, so sad!!

      They are those children he didn’t say it in a disrespectful manner, they aren’t his biological children 🤷🏽‍♀️ sometimes Iyanla comes across as condescending and rude! You can’t help if you are biased! The father was not wrong, she said she felt disrespected but she never acknowledged that she made him feel disrespected! He apologized yet Iyanla never did, it doesn’t matter your credentials you must respect others to get respect!!! She was manipulative and disrespectful!

      @@lateshajohnson3622 true, he didn’t say it disrespectfully, but he said it twice and he did say it matter of factly- like he has said it many times to himself. Too many times for him not to remember that he JUST said it. To me, it speaks to the grave issue of his mental roadblocks concerning his position in the family and maybe the confusion of taking care of children that aren’t his with little to no support (of him) from a wife that is disrespectful because she feels that she has been cheated on. I’m glad Iyanla caught it and brought it to his CONSCIOUSNESS. Otherwise, he would still be living/dying in a fake marriage going Thru the motions for the sake of… saving face?

      @@lateshajohnson3622 i think you’re looking at it from the vantage point of fact, and I agree with you there - they aren’t his children. However, it’s a cognition issue if he isn’t aware that he believes that subconsciously and is suppressing it and acting on it but not aware that he is consciously. That’s a very deep issue that needs to be drawn out. Iyanla fixes problems and they call her. She speaks to the ROOT of their issues. If they want to get coddled, don’t call her - and they know their choice before they call her.

Opted not to date and to make sure she was stable and grounded as a toddler. I have faith and I know God takes care of us.

Being quick to pin the other person and nitpick what you see is “wrong” with them? She forced them to see what’s wrong with themselves instead. Self reflection is so important even if most people wanna be resistant to opening their eyes.

    When Mike said he felt attacked and that Iyanla was trying to turn a man into a “feely” creature…what he meant to say is he hasn’t learned to be vulnerable and I’m guessing that he was raised to believe that a man doesn’t cry or deal with raw feelings. So many men have been lied to. And a lot of their parents didn’t know any better and were just passing down what they learned. Side note: Since we are made in the image of God, that means He cries, gets angry, scared, feels rejected and betrayed and every emotion we all have. So that means it’s ok to feel! 🤷🏽‍♀️ Good luck to this family. It’s very repairable ❤️

    And this is exactly why I think people should bring their kids into the picture sooner so that they can get acquainted with each other. It's insane to marry someone that made no effort to get to know your kids

    I think that parents (and step-parents) need to be more transparent with their kids about how hard parenting is. It's important to be both honest and kind because honesty without kindness is brutality and kindness without honesty is manipulative.

    People forget that they are human putting god first isn’t just going to do it. You have to acknowledge some hurt and pain and what needs to be worked on for change then once that’s displayed, your love ones can see that .. but what I don’t respect is a person who isn’t accountable for their actions; even if others can see and point it out. I’m happy Ms. Iyanla is able to not see one side and work well with the skill to healing and fixing ! They needed that.
