Sophia Lorey is joined in Episode 63 of This Is a Woman Podcast by Faith Ozenbaugh, National Director of Young Women for America, for a candid and thought-provoking conversation on feminism versus biblical femininity and why the distinction matters.

Together, Sophia and Faith unpack how modern feminism has shifted across its waves, ultimately leaving many women confused, discouraged, and disconnected from their God-given design. Faith walks listeners through the origins of the feminist movement, explaining where early legal victories gave way to ideological extremes that now undermine women, family, and truth itself.

The conversation then turns toward biblical femininity not as a rigid checklist or cultural trend, but as a heart posture rooted in surrender to Christ and grounded in Scripture. Drawing from women throughout the Bible, including Deborah, Sophia and Faith highlight how Scripture affirms women as strong, wise, courageous leaders who flourish when they live in alignment with God’s design rather than cultural pressure.

Listeners will also hear a clear breakdown of common misconceptions surrounding submission, marriage, and womanhood, as well as a thoughtful critique of both radical feminism and the modern “tradwife” movement. Faith explains why neither extreme reflects the full biblical picture and why femininity is not limited to marriage or motherhood, but expressed faithfully in every season of a woman’s life.

The episode closes with a powerful reminder: femininity is not a burden, weakness, or form of oppression. It is a gift. Sophia and Faith encourage young women to reject the lies of feminism that demean womanhood, embrace biblical truth with discernment, and find joy, freedom, and purpose in the way God uniquely created them.
