Meagan Good is known for her effortless beauty and laidback style, and her home is no different. The Harlem star showcased her lovely home on Beautiful Black Homes by Ebony Magazine and shared how it contributed to her healing process following her divorce from Devon Franklin.
"As I was going through the process of my divorce, the healing process, I ended up staying at an Airbnb," she said. "While I was there, I realized that being in the hills kind of reminded me of my childhood.
"And so I began the process of looking for a home, and crazy enough, my dad, all the way in Hawaii, sent me this house a few months prior. So I came and saw it, and the first day that I came and saw it, there was a deer outside in the front yard, and I was like, that's a good sign."
One of the first things that made her fall in love with the house was the massive front door and stone entryway and the indoor-outdoor living.

The owner's suite is cozy and minimalistic. "I love this bedroom because so many of the walls are just windows. As you can see, the view is just incredible from this room. It has a lot of great light," she said.
The owner's suite bathroom includes a steam shower, which only adds to the retreat vibe.

Meagan's living room is the ultimate cozy spot and the place where she entertains most of her guests. "The first thing I fell in love with was the fireplace because the entire wall was a fireplace," she said. "The second thing that I kind of love that there was no real place to put a TV initially, so we put her there (pointing to the ceiling)."

The backyard has a saltwater pool that is heated and a fire pit overlooking the hills.
Meagan said she felt "empowered" after finally buying her own home. "I would call my home the ultimate take-a-break living space because from the moment you walk in, you just kinda take your shoes off, and you literally take a break and you rest and you relax," she said.

RELATED
The film follows Faith Mitchell, a wife and mother whose life is upended by a devastating loss. As she spirals into despair, it’s the love of family, friends, and God that slowly leads her back to light. And for Paula, this story wasn’t just a role—it was personal.
“It connected to a time in my life that I could really relate to,” she says. “That feeling of having lost so much and feeling like so much pain, and not knowing how to deal with the pain… and numbing out to do that.”

A Story That Hit Close to Home
Having been sober for seven years, Paula says the emotional territory was familiar. But more than anything, it brought her closer to a deeper truth.
“Once you give [the numbing] up, you have to walk in the desert alone… and that’s when I truly found faith in God.”
Turning Pain Into Purpose
While the film touches on loss and addiction, Finding Faith ultimately lives up to its title. Paula describes the acting process as cathartic—and one she was finally ready for.
“Art became healing,” she says. “That was the biggest challenge of all… but it was a challenge I wanted.”
More Than an Inspirational Thriller
Finding Faith is described as an “inspirational thriller,” with layered tones of romance, suspense, and spiritual reflection. Paula credits that dynamic blend to writer-director LazRael Lison.
“That’s what I love about Finding Faith,” she explains. “Yes, she goes on this journey, but there’s other storylines happening that help it stay entertaining.”

On-Set Magic with Loretta Devine
With a cast stacked with phenomnal talent—Loretta Devine, Keith David, Stephen Bishop—it’s no surprise that the film also came alive through unscripted moments.
“We did this kitchen scene… and Loretta changed it,” Paula shares. “She wouldn’t leave. I had to change my dance and figure out how to work with it, and it took on this whole other layer. I’m forever grateful.”
Faith When It Feels Like Night
The film leans on the biblical verse: “Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning.” Paula says that reminder is something she’s lived.
“When you’re feeling so anxious, and you look out in the distance and see nothing there… that’s when you have to trust God’s timing.”
Divine Timing Behind the Scenes
Paula didn’t just star in the film—she produced it through her company, Third Eye Productions. And the way the opportunity came to her? Nothing short of divine.
“I said, ‘Just for one week, believe everything’s going to be perfect,’” she recalls. “That same day, my friend Charles called and said, ‘I have a film for you. It’s called Finding Faith.’ I thought I was going to throw the phone down.”
What’s Next for Paula Patton?
When asked about a dream role, Paula didn’t name a genre or a character. Her focus now is on legacy—and light.
“I want to make sure I keep making art that entertains people, but also has hope… That it has a bright light at the end to get us through this journey here on Earth.”
