New York Times best-selling author Iyanla Vanzant recounts the last decade of her life and the spiritual lessons learned—from the price of success during her meteoric rise as a TV celebrity on Oprah, the Iyanla TV show (produced by Barbara Walters), to the dissolution of her marriage and her daughter’s 15 months of illness and death on Christmas day. Like a phoenix rising from the ashes, Iyanla shares why everything we need to learn is reflected in our relationships and the strength and wisdom she has gained by supporting others in their journeys to make sense out of the puzzle pieces of their lives.

A must read that will make you laugh, cry and smile with joy.

ByAmazon Customeron December 28, 2016

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

I normally don't write reviews on books even in light of how great they are. I felt the need to share with everyone my thoughts on this wonderful gem. What an eye opener and many great lessons Ms. Iyanla has chosen to share with us. This book has definitely spoken to my spirit on many different levels. My heart cried as she spoke about losing her daughter and the message she received as to why Gemmia transitioned. I recommend all to read with an open mind, heart and spirit.

I've enjoyed watching her show

ByPamelaon June 21, 2017

Format: PaperbackVerified Purchase

Ms. Vanzant is a very inspirational woman. I've enjoyed watching her show, Fix My Life on OWN TV. And now after reading her book, I am getting insight on the woman, she is. When I finish this book, I plan to invest and focus my self with the 21 Days of Forgiveness. I am truly at a point of trying to find my Peace from Broken Pieces. I Praise Ms. Vanzant for her courage, her strength and her gift to share and heal others, by first, finding, accepting and healing herself. What a Powerful Woman of GOD.

A piece of the peace.

ByJB Esquireon February 22, 2016

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

This book ministered to my heart from a standpoint of mother/daughter conflict and ultimate resolve. The only thing that would have made it better is if Iyanla had shown more of her reflections of er process of taking responsibility for the pain that she cause Gemmia. She didn't really seem to "connect" with Gemmia's pain. She seemed to be focused primarily on her own, while going occasional subjective superficial voice to that of her daughters'. All too often, this same skit is played on on the stages of other daughters hearts. Oftentimes that pain isn't given sufficient voice. It would have been helpful if Iyanla had of demonstrated a deeper authentic vulnerability by sharing some Grmmia's journal entries where her daughter reglected the most candidly about her.

Putting yourself back together again

Byrmcraeon January 1, 2011

Format: Hardcover

I was familiar with inspirational speaker, author, and spiritual leader Iyanla Vanzant from her Oprah appearances and catching her life coaching on Starting Over from time to time, but I didn't know much about her life story. My mom checked out Peace from Broken Pieces from the library, loved it, and recommended it to me. I must say it's well written and insightful.

Iyanla starts off the book by reflecting on the Christmas morning her daughter died in 2003. She'd succumbed to a year long battle with a rare form of colon cancer and left a young daughter behind. As if burying your own child isn't traumatic enough throw in marital issues, financial problems, and just feeling like your whole world is crashing down on you. Something's gotta give!

It took Iyanla about 3 and a half years to pen this book because of fear. She was a best selling author of a number of self-help books and alot of people looked to her for spiritual guidance. Secretly, she felt like a fraud. Her personal life was barely holding up and she was afraid people would turn on her if she opened up about what was really going down. After much prayer and self-reflection, she took a good look at her life and the patterns and behaviors she'd been taught since childhood.

Although she lost her mother to breast cancer at the age of 2, Iyanla had made many of the same mistakes her mom did. She talks openly about her downright mean grandmother who subjected her to brutal beatings, but treated her older brother with only love and kindness. The father who abandoned her emotionally and one time nearly killed her after a savage beating. The uncle who raped her and the aunt who looked the other way. The husband who would disappear for days at a time and physically abuse her when he felt like it.

Even after raising 3 kids, getting off welfare and moving her family out of the projects, and making a name for herself, Iyanla was still Ronda Eva Harris, the abused little girl who never felt like she was good enough. The child who was always put down and mistreated and felt like she deserved it.

The death of her daughter was only one tragedy that lead Vanzant to a breakthrough. She writes candidly about her time with Oprah (who was very fair and kind to her) and the mistake she made by hosting her own short-lived talk show. I've always gotten a bad vibe from Bill Geddie, aka the "View Master", and the descriptions of his domineering chauvinism and disrespectful behavior didn't surprise me at all.

Kudos to Iyanla for finding her inner warrior woman and kicking all the crap to the curb in order to be her authentic self. Another big lesson from the book is the importance of addressing familial cycles of dysfunction and abuse in order to heal. It has to stop. Peace from Broken Pieces is a highly recommended read. Go for it.

Arise to your nobility!

ByMs. Maryon November 23, 2010

Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase

Based off the way she has so eloquently written her story you feel as if you're right there be it when she was brutally whipped by her farther, held her beloved Gemmima for the first time, man handled by one of Barbara Walters producers, or walked across the stage to receive her diploma. I believe this is a brilliant tactic not for the sake of glowing book reviews or even for book sales: her presence is felt so strongly through this book that it will force you to acknowledge the consequences of cultural pathologies, family legacies, and misogyny she strives to draw serious attention too. Ms. Vanzant demonstrates this divine ability to write from the being of her soul which pours out over each life stage, milestone, and crisis. She is brutally honest, not holding back...

Ms. Vanzant has done what many mental health professionals, family counseling professionals, scholars, and academics have failed to do: leaving out politics, ideology, and hidden agendas clearly and articulately describes how the demise of families especially black family ( and in particular the destruction of black women) transpires. Not that this was her intent, but you can understand from a first hand account how difficult overcoming structural racism, sexism, psychological abuse, skin shade racism, and premature parenthood truly are. This is not all doom and gloom because her journey is filled with hope and redemption.

Finally, most importantly (at least to me) the issue of misogyny including racio- misogyny is highlighted in many of her challenges. I believe this is an issue all women of every race or ethnicity can relate to: standing up to men not because you half to but because ***you have the right to***. Recognizing that being run into the ground by men is a distinct pathology in and of it's self was crucial to her survival and development. One of the best parts of this book was her explanation of the thought process and the physical process of standing up to a television executive who thought he had the right to man handle her by using his size, voice, and status with the network. That was a powerful moment that in my opinion led to other powerful moments.

Her encouragement to act as a Queen that manages her life with DIVINE power, authority, and victory are a call to overcome cultural pathologies, misogyny and other man made disadvantages. Her life is a testimony that it CAN be done and that it ***MUST*** be done in order to leave the future generation with a legacy of compassion, grace, and depth. Arise and live up to your nobility.
