Description
“The most powerful spiritual healer, fixer, teacher on the planet.” —Oprah Winfrey
Is it the job you hate but need in order to pay the rent? Is it that relationship that you gave your all to only to end up with a broken heart...again? Perhaps it's your children, a family member, or a life-long friend doing you in, dragging you down, pushing you to the brink. If you are an honorary member of the Black Woman's Suffering Society, you have probably been told that it's all your fault. Or that struggling and suffering is your lot in life. Iyanla Vanzant says, No! Life is an Act of Faith and suffering is optional! Those everyday challenges, obstacles, and dilemmas are what Iyanla calls "valleys." As bad as they may seem, there is a purpose or, as Iyanla says, "There is so much value in the valley."
If you've ever been disappointed, betrayed, rejected, abandoned, or just plain old scared to let go, then you've been or may still be in a valley. Iyanla knows—she's been there and on a bad day she's still there, but now she shares the way out with you.

1By carrie640As a fan of In the Meantime, I decided to read the overview of this book. I was getting excited thinking, "yes! That's me!". Then.... I read a "black woman's guide...". Oh. That must mean white women don't have these issues? I passed on the book, obviously. Just wow!Awesome!!
5By Nasima RileyMy father gave me this book when I was 23 years old. He had heard of Iyanla and her work. He had also read the book. He told me the book would help me with my transition into womanhood and becoming the woman I was destined to be and not become a victim of my circumstances. This book, literally, changed my life. It changed my way of thinking, my patterns and my behaviors. I cannot put into enough words what this book did for me. Whenever a sister-friend is going through tough times I give them a copy of the book. It's been 12 years since I read this book but what it taught me still remains with me to this day. Thank you Iyanla!Awesome
