Meaning?

Hi, what is the meaning of "Go, girl," and "Now .." in the following text?

"He's a nice- looking guy, a few years younger. One of her students."

"Go girl," Myra said."Did you ever learn the real reason she left here so abruptly three years ago?"

"Not really.Some sort of family business."

"Well, we'll get to the bottom of it tonight. I can assure you of that."

"Now Myra, " Leigh said softly. "We'll not be prying."

Does " Now Myra" mean come on Myra?

Thanks
