The Girl Who Cried Love: A Pivot to Self-Worth is a raw, unfiltered memoir-meets-manifesto about breaking cycles, letting go of toxic love, and finally coming home to yourself.
For years, Lindsay Manfredi — bassist for the rock band Cold and author of Unfuckwithable: A Guide to Inspired Badassery — thought confidence and self-worth were the same thing. She wore confidence like armor: smiling through heartbreak, hustling through exhaustion, and chasing love in all the wrong places. But beneath it all was a truth she couldn’t outrun — she didn’t believe she truly deserved the love, respect, and good things she was giving to everyone else.
In this deeply personal and empowering journey, Lindsay peels back the layers of her own story — from self-sabotage and substance abuse to healing, self-discovery, and reclaiming her worth. With honesty, grit, and moments of laugh-out-loud humor, she offers hope to anyone who has ever:
* Worn confidence like a mask to hide the cracks underneath
* Clung to relationships or situations that couldn’t give them what they needed
* Numbed the pain to survive another day
* Felt “not enough” no matter what they achieved
The Girl Who Cried Love is more than a story. It’s an invitation to stop chasing validation and start valuing yourself — exactly as you are.
If you’ve ever felt lost, unworthy, or stuck in a cycle you can’t break, this book will remind you: you are not broken. You are becoming.
