Meet the eight women that Iyanla has invited to her House of Healing, a place where they will heal, grow and learn what's truly at the heart of their "anger."

"I have the right to be angry, and the people that I've been angry with, they apologize. Nevertheless, I'm still angry."
Lita, 46
Never married, Rita's twin
"I'm bitter and I'm mad. I'm over being compassionate and loving."
Alana, 38

"I could care less what you think. ... You have to be strong nowadays. If you're not strong, you know, people are going to take advantage of you."
Chrystale, 45
Divorced actress
"People intentionally provoke me. ... My mother has done disrespectful things."
Jaimeka, 31

"I did not graduate. I got with some ghetto dudes and had babies. So, I am angry with myself."
Rita, 46

"I've always been a yes-girl. Passive. 'Yes,' no matter how it makes me feel."
Drea, 33
Single mother of 1, salon manager
"When someone hurts me, I definitely want to hurt them more than they hurt me."
Lira, 22
Ex-fiancée of Rick Ross, former stripper
