For Mina Starsiak Hawk, who spoke with People in September 2023, ending “Good Bones” was similar to going through an especially drawn-out breakup. “When you’re done and you think it’s the last day, it’s still not, because once everything goes into editing, there’s some pickups, you have to re-say lines,” she shared. “So you’re back together again, and then you break up again,” she added of her relationship with the show’s crew. However, Starsiak Hawk also expressed her appreciation for the gradual transition, acknowledging, “I think it was kind of good because processing all of it at once was super overwhelming.”
The HGTV star also reflected on how the home renovation world had changed since she’d started her journey. While it’s clear that Starsiak Hawk had some complicated feelings about the ending of her hit show, it was far from a walk in the park — partially because of the complex and difficult relationships she shared with her mother and other family members.
“When you put anything under a spotlight, in a pressure cooker, there’s the opportunity to explode,” the Two Chicks and a Hammer co-founder opined during an October 2023 episode of “Mina AF.” Starsiak Hawk continued, “And I myself am not stable enough to not explode at times.” She also implied that certain people in her life weren’t grateful for her or the show.
