The women, including a single mother, several victims of child abuse, and a set of twins one of whom was attacked by an ex-boyfriend all share one thing in common: They have all been labeled as angry black women.

Chrystale proclaims that her mother is "dead" to her, but the other women aren't convinced and neither is Iyanla. During an intense session, Iyanla challenges Chrystale to dig deep and let go of the pain she's been holding on to. Nearly every woman in the house has had issues with men. So, Iyanla invites some black men to the house for a mixer, but the twist is that these men prefer to date outside their race. Also invited are four white women who only date black men. The mixer is a test for the women of the House of Healing to see whether they are able to use the techniques they've learned to communicate. - House of Healing – The Myth of The Angry Black Woman, Part 3

Meanwhile, the other men continue their work with a "truth stone" exercise, where they reveal secrets that have had an impact on their integrity.

Afterward, Terrance speaks with Iyanla privately. He turns off his mic and says he wants to stay in the house.
