“I’ve learned to not be as much of a people pleaser,” she said. “I’ve learned that not everybody’s going to get you or like you, and that’s okay. And knowing who your tribe is and being really thankful for that, and knowing sometimes they’re not your tribe — that’s okay too.”
She went on to say that she remains focused on “loving and treating people with respect regardless, and never letting how people treat you change the integrity of who you want to be. I think in this season especially, I’m learning to live again in a different way.”
Good added, “It’s been a lot of changes like going through a divorce and having a hit TV show where I’m playing the character of my dreams and having massive support from Amazon.”
At the time of their divorce announcement, Good and Franklin explained in a joint statement that “after much prayer and consideration, we have decided to go into our futures separately but forever connected. We celebrate almost a decade of marriage together and a love that is eternal. There’s no one at fault, we believe this is the next best chapter in the evolution of our love.”
They continued: “We are incredibly grateful for the life-changing years we’ve spent together as husband and wife. We are also extremely thankful to God for the testimony being created inside us both and for blessing our lives with each other.”
