Oprah wanted to do something special for relationship expert Iyanla Vanzant in recognition of everything she has done for others, so she hatched a plan with designer Nate Berkus to surprise Iyanla with a top-to-bottom overhaul of Iyanla's new house. Dozens of people have been working day and night to make the house Iyanla has named Villa Nova ("new vision") perfect for reveal day.

As Iyanla arrives to see her newly renovated house for the first time, she is greeted by the people who put their blood, sweat and tears into the project. Watch as an emotional Iyanla greets each and every person and explains what their contributions mean to her.
