Iyanla Vanzant on Living in Your Truth
My first encounter with Iyanla Vanzant was back in 2007. It was the summer before my senior year of college, and I was interning at Project Safe, a domestic violence shelter in Athens, GA. I often went to the library in my downtime (I love, love, love books), and one day, I stumbled upon an Iyanla Vanzant book.
I don’t remember which one it was, but I do know that it was a turning point for me when it came to changing my mindset and getting serious about creating the life I wanted.
Since then, I’ve continued to be encouraged by her books and her daily posts and quotes on Facebook.
I even started my own wellness, meditation and yoga movement with The Black Girls Guide to Calm.
That’s why I am sharing my favorite Iyanla Vanzant quotes with you. And because we can all use a little magic and inspiration from time to time, here is some inspiration from Auntie Iyanla that will inspire and empower you to be your best!
