I started a thread on here a while ago on a similar subject. Drawing the women into her ample bosom is one of Iyanla's signature moves. (others include: calling someone a liar, referring to their parents as momma or daddy, being confrontational in her tone, and using ridiculous tasks to illustrate the "life" or "death" seriousness of thier choices to name a few. I mean if we go all the way back to last season, she has done it to almost every woman she has come in contact with. Allison..check
Vanessa..check
Rachael..check..check..she loved to mother Rachael in this way.
sidebar::ever notice how Iyanla tends to be assigned to the ppl who have the parenting issues in their background ie Rachael, Jennifer? I wonder if this is intentional
Renee
Towanda
And those are just from season two. We can skip ahead to the couples bootcamp to:
Lou
Simon and his wife (I forget her name)
and other but their names aren't as fresh
This season, she's done it to pretty much anyone. I was taking bets with some of my online friends to see how she was going to manage her signature move with Jill given her size. She easily found a work around for this when they were together in the garden. Remember that one? She sort of had Jill lean in her lap while they both sat on the ground. I could go on and on about this one. Iyanla seems so contrived in this way. You know it's going to happen, it's just a matter of when. Sometimes she has to break you down first a la Jodi to get you feeling weak and vulnerable..at that moment you are ripe for her bosom..It's kind of funny when you think about it, because it's not at all spontaneous.
