The Woman You Become When You’re Trying to Be Loved
About this podcast
Girl, I’ve been thinking…
This podcast is for the woman who feels awake — but restless. Who’s tired of performing healing and ready to be honest instead.
Hosted by Monica Cotolan, Girl, I’ve Been Thinking is an intimate, unfiltered podcast about identity, emotional patterns, self-betrayal, and becoming the person your life is asking for.
No motivation. No fluff.
Just conversations that feel like a mirror.
If you’re ready to stop circling your potential and actually meet yourself, press play.
