The One That Got Away

Shondaland Audio and iHeartPodcasts
About this episode

In this episode, Iyanla is asking callers to contemplate whether or not they let the good one get away...or maybe they are the one that got away. How did it happen? Was there self-sabotaging? Were you ready to receive? Our first guest knows she let the good one get away, and Iyanla helps her figure out what to call in for her next relationship. 

For our second guest, the one that got away was out of her control, but Iyanla advises on how to move forward when fate takes our lives in unforeseen directions.
