- So I want you to turn around and face me. Close your eyes, and come present in your body. Yeah. Give yourself permission to know the truth. Give yourself permission to know the truth. What are you holding onto? I sold my soul. Yes. Let it come out. Let that come all the way out. Let's tell the whole truth and nothing but the truth. I sold my soul for what? How about a house, a car, a vacation-- what? What did you sell your soul for? I sold my soul to have a life that I wanted that I never had. Yeah. A material life. Yeah. Let that come out. Come on. You-- you're doing so good. Let it come all the way out. Good. Yeah, let it come up. IYANLA (VOICEOVER): This is a major breakthrough for Miss Charrisse, recognizing that she gave up any chance at internal happiness in order to get external validation. And that is never the answer. But today, she can choose to be different. They both can. The thing that I just don't understand is why both of you can't just do this and let it all go. Because that's ridiculous. Oh, really? It's-- it's the thought-- that's what you want. It is! It's what you want more than anything-- Is what? Is-- is your identity, your self respect. IYANLA: Right. Yeah. And what is-- But that trade off is so hard. It's-- it's like-- If you tell yourself it's hard-- If you put all your weight on one leg-- If you tell yourself it's hard-- --switch you'll fall. You feel like you're going to fall-- You thought you were doing the right thing staying. What if you're wrong now? What if it really ain't hard? Just got to be willing to do some stuff that you may have thought you didn't want to do.
