Not every system that works is clean. In this episode, Fe talks about Babylon as a pattern of pressure, speed, image, and name building, and how to recognize when your daily rhythms are being shaped more by toil than obedience.

There is a difference between stewardship and self-reliance. In this episode, Fe talks about the hidden belief that says, “If I do not carry everything, everything will collapse,” and how hustle becomes a false god when pressure turns into identity.

In this episode of The Becoming Her Podcast, I sit down with Dr. Josh Brahinsky for a thoughtful conversation about prayer, speaking in tongues, surrender, and what science can help us observe about the body and brain during spiritual practice.

Dr. Brahinsky has spent nearly two decades studying charismatic evangelical prayer, with special attention to speaking in tongues, worship, embodiment, surrender, creativity, and the way these practices shape how people live and move in the world.

This conversation is not about using science to prove God. It is about looking carefully at what happens when human beings pray, surrender, worship, and practice faith with their whole selves. We talk about the difference between theology and science, what researchers can measure, what they cannot claim, and why this kind of work matters for believers, thinkers, and anyone curious about the connection between faith, the brain, the body, and behavior.

Inside this episode, we talk about:

• Why Dr. Brahinsky has spent nearly twenty years studying charismatic evangelicalism and Pentecostal prayer• What speaking in tongues can teach us about surrender, control, worship, and embodied faith• Why prayer is not only a spiritual practice, but also a deeply physical and relational one• What researchers discovered when they studied people praying and speaking in tongues in brain imaging environments• The concept of “dropping in” during prayer and why it became important in the research• How surrender may be connected to creativity, inner flexibility, and a greater sense of capacity• Why science does not need to replace theology or prove God in order to offer meaningful insight• What it means to study the body without reducing the work of God to biology

The word drops on Monday. The offer goes live on Friday. And somewhere in between, walking away starts to feel like missing God.

This episode names the pattern of using divine language to bypass people's discernment and drive them toward a yes they were never at peace about.

Manipulation does not always look like a con. Sometimes it looks like a countdown timer. Sometimes it sounds like "God told me to release this." Sometimes it shows up in the caption that calls your hesitation a lack of seriousness.

This episode names the tactics that have been normalized in online business and ministry spaces, and draws a clear line between persuasion that serves and pressure that exploits. Whether you have been on the receiving end or you need to examine your own methods, this conversation is for you.

Sometimes the issue is not your discipline. Sometimes it is not your capacity. Sometimes it is not even the season.
