"When I got divorced this last time, it was the best thing that ever happened to me," she explained.
"Because it really made me journey into — I mean, I had a religious coach. I had a therapist, a couple's therapist, an individual therapist. I had a coach to understand addiction. I had everything. I was like, 'I'm going to figure this out if it kills me.'"

The Hustlers star has been married four times, most famously to Marc Anthony from 2004 to 2014 and Ben Affleck from 2022 to 2023.
When Stern asked Lopez if she believed she had ever "truly been loved," she answered "no," but she understands what it means to sincerely love someone else. She also stated that one of the reasons she feels this way is because "I didn't love myself."
"What I learned, it's not that I'm not lovable — it's that they're not capable. ... They don't have it in them," she said, adding, "And they gave me what they had. They gave me all of it, every time. All the rings, all the things I could ever want. The houses, the rings, the marriage. All of it. But...."
After going through her divorce, Lopez stated that she is now "able to sit here in a much more self-assured, self-aware way" and reflect on all that has transpired in her life.
"Whether my mother, my father, in my own life, how I learned to love, how I felt neglected — all the things that are in your head as a person — and know who I am and just really appreciate that person," she explained. "[I] feel really comfortable and good in being myself, all the good parts and all the kind of complicated things."
Lopez previously described her divorce with Affleck as "the best thing that ever happened to me" during an appearance on CBS Sunday Morning in September.
During the interview, the Maid in Manhattan star revealed that the breakup "helped me grow in the way that I needed to grow, become more self-aware."
"I'm a different person now than I was last year," she said. "I realized that the joy is in living and these moments and really embracing life and everything that it brings to you, for the lessons that it brings."
She went on to say that once those lessons were learned, "everything just became a little bit lighter and you could really, really fly."
When asked if she now feels like she's flying, Lopez said yes, adding, "I still feel like I want to fly higher."
The former couple reconnected at the opening of The Kiss of the Spider Woman, a film produced by Affleck and starring Lopez. They were pictured together on the red carpet, with Affleck posing with his arm around her waist in some shots.

Jennifer Lopez finalises divorce with Affleck
Legit.ng earlier reported that Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck finalised their divorce five months after it terminated their two-year marriage.
The stars, who were previously engaged in 2002 after a whirlwind affair, rekindled their relationship in July 2021 after nearly 20 years apart and married in a Las Vegas wedding a year later in July 2022.
Lopez filed for divorce in August 2024, despite the fact that the couple had separated almost a year earlier, in April 2023, according to court documents. The announcement came amid widespread rumours of a split.
