    Ep. 402: Iyanla Vanzant Breaks Down “The Inside Fix,” Spiritual Hygiene, & Lady Balls
    Jan 17 2026
    This week on The Ice Cream Convos Podcast, I’m joined by the legendary Iyanla Vanzant for a powerful and unforgettable conversation about her return to OWN with her new series, “Iyanla: The Inside Fix.”

    In this episode, Iyanla shares why this new chapter goes deeper than "Fix My Life" and what it really means to do the work from the inside out.

    We talk about her concept of spiritual hygiene, why healing requires personal accountability, and how each episode of the series includes a Fix It Workbook designed to help viewers apply the lessons to their own lives.

    Iyanla also breaks down how she selected the episodes being revisited, why the issues still hit just as hard today, and what it looks like to navigate life with confidence, compassion, and what she famously calls “lady balls.”

    If you’ve ever watched Iyanla and felt like she was speaking directly to you, this conversation is for you.“Iyanla: The Inside Fix” premieres Saturday, January 17 at 8PM ET/PT on OWN.

    Press play, and be sure to share your thoughts with me after you listen.
