Rev. Dr. Iyanla Vanzant‘s story reads like an epic adventure filled with near misses, struggle, strength, courage and triumph. From her life’s experiences she has uncovered her life’s purpose, discovered the power that lies within and recovered her spiritual self and has emerged as a living testament to God’s Prevailing Peace, Power and Presence.
In 1990 with seemingly little notice, Vanzant‘s path to working with man’s law transformed and suddenly made way to a divine appointment with Spiritual Law. This union gave birth to her work of service to the Universe and manifested in the form of workshops, lectures, television appearance, and best-selling books, wherein Iyanla Vanzant shared Spiritual Law and Principles.
With a clear mission, Iyanla Vanzant and her beloved daughter, Gemmia, founded Inner Visions. First offering small classes focused on transforming difficult experiences into empowering lessons of victory, Inner Visions has blossomed into a multi-faceted training program that offers certification in Mastery of Life Skills, Life Coaching and Ministerial Ordination.
Rev. Dr. Vanzant has received numerous awards and accolades for the power and impact of her work.

She is a woman of passion, clear vision and purpose.
