Iyanla Vanzant tackled major issues between a father and his transgender child on Saturday's airing of "Iyanla, Fix My Life."
Below are a few quotes and takeaways from the episode.
1. "a withhold is a lie."
2. "Is it that you're not angry or is it that you've been taught it's not nice (or right) to be angry ? Anger simply means that your personal power, personal space, and your personal sense of being has been violated."
3. "This is about being willing to piss some people off to save your life."
4. "The way you've been handling it in the past hasn't worked. This is a crash course in getting to the next step... Healing is not always pretty or easy and it doesn't come quick."
5. "It's important to love them for who they are. Sometimes children are teachers for their parents."
