«It feels lonely, unfamiliar, terrifying, desperate,» Jennifer said of the experience, though she emphasized that she eventually learned to find happiness within herself.

«When your whole house blows up, you’re standing there in the rubble saying, ‘What do I do to make sure this never happens again?'» the singer reflected, offering a self-critical perspective.

«It’s easy to blame others, but the real lesson is to look inward,» she added, showing that this process has been one of personal growth.

Jennifer also confessed that low self-esteem has been a challenge throughout her life.

«My whole life has been about proving that I’m enough,» López explained, recalling her childhood.

«Being ignored, feeling like you didn’t matter… that sticks with you,» she said, reflecting on her upbringing in the Bronx, where her parents worked long hours.

Today, at 55, she has learned to give herself self-love and to heal her «inner child.»

«I tell that little girl who grew up in the Bronx, ‘You’ve done a lot of things right,'» López revealed, sharing how she has worked to rebuild her self-esteem over time.

Ben Affleck’s divorce wasn’t just a sentimental breakup but also a transformative phase for the artist.

The star requested to reclaim her original name, Jennifer Lynn López, in the court documents.

She also established that neither would request spousal support, and the division of assets has yet to be determined.

Affleck, for his part, rented a property near where his children with Jennifer Garner live and continues working on his film projects.

But for Jennifer López, this separation isn’t the end of her story. «Being in a relationship doesn’t define me,» she stated, emphasizing that she has learned not to seek happiness from others.

«It’s something that has to come from within,» she added, a deep reflection that has marked this new chapter in her life.

Despite the pain, Jennifer also feels optimistic and full of hope.

«I’m excited,» she confessed when thinking about what the future holds.

Jennifer López also made it clear that criticism doesn’t affect her because she is sure of who she is.

«I know I’m a good person. I know I’m a good mom,» she confidently asserted.

For her, what matters is the opinion of her loved ones: «My friends know who I am, my mom, my dad… that’s what really matters.»

The actress and singer also acknowledged that she won’t always be understood.

«Some people will love you, and some won’t understand you,» she admitted, but she made it clear that she has learned to ignore unwarranted hatred.

As for her career, Jennifer López reaffirmed that her passion for music and acting remains intact.

«I love singing, I love dancing, I love acting, I love entertaining, I love creating,» expressed Jennifer López.

Her career remains «the passion of her life,» and though this has been a difficult period, she hasn’t lost sight of what truly drives her.

«The last few months have been a huge learning experience,» López confessed.

«It’s not until you go through incredibly tough times that things become clearer,» she concluded, hinting that this process has allowed her to see with greater clarity what truly matters in her life.
