Pre-declare the classes with '@class' - eg

@class ClassTwo;
@interface ClassOne : NSObject {

       ClassTwo *objectTwo;
}

@end

You'll still need to import 'ClassTwo.h' in your implementation file.

It's a good idea to do that instead of importing any of your own
headers within header files.  Things can get a bit contorted
otherwise.
