Welcome to Part XLVIII of our Brain Drain trilogy's finale about how to undo the damage of harmful influences and brainwashing.

Merge your lives together in marriage…the two have become one. Shawn and Brandi share how their interactions strategy helped and transformed how they have done teamwork and communicating with others. Shawn also purposely edified Brandi in front of other people. He specifies how there is a right and wrong way to do so. Brandi shares some on past public bullying and shaming and how that heavily affected her…and that it even helped set her up to be vulnerable to her captor.

We all need positive affirmation… There are extremes, but when practiced appropriately, it builds others up to keep fighting the good fight.

Welcome to Part XLVII of our Brain Drain trilogy's finale about how to undo the damage of harmful influences and brainwashing.

Relationships and life aren't about competition or proving yourself all the time. Brandi dealt with that a lot during her captivity. Shawn has strived to have her shine like he knew she could. Brandi shares how Shawn's introductions into a conversation really helped her. You can't squeeze an extrovert into an introvert mold and expect them to be healthy…

Be aware of jealousy of others and safeguard your relationship in prayer and boundaries against it. And, again, don't let others physically separate you and your significant other, leaving him/her on the outside.

Welcome to Part XLVI of our Brain Drain trilogy's finale about how to undo the damage of harmful influences and brainwashing.

Calmly talk things out…don't argue and tear down. Shawn continues talking about their experiences with working out triggers, setting boundaries, and how important showing Brandi how she should've always been treated has been. Brandi explains that you don't know what's possible until you've experienced it especially if you've been abused. Take your experiences and interactions to God to then know how to handle them.

Don't allow people to separate you from your significant other. Shawn continues on sharing how he would prompt Brandi when he knew that she had something to add to a conversation…bringing out her confidence in her extrovert personality.

Welcome to Part XLV of our Brain Drain trilogy's finale about how to undo the damage of harmful influences and brainwashing.

God blessed them as being a team and the  demonic agenda against Shawn and Brandi in Ohio was of separation and disunity. They don't see marriage as being a struggle or as work. They respect, honor, respect, and love their relationship with God at their center. Ohio proved that they'd stick together through the worst of storms while at their most vulnerable. God redeemed that time. Brandi explains how having a strong friendship at their foundation also fought against warfare.

Don't keep secrets in your relationship or require an escape from your significant other. If you do, problems will arise. Address it now before it can develop into something catastrophic to your relationship. Delight in each other. If you can't, prayerfully analyze if you're with your God given match.

These situations were also used for Brandi's betterment in the end because she got to experience the opposite of what she experienced in her past. Brandi expresses the power of words and how protecting your relationship is a must. You don't know a person's heart, God does. He will give you revelation into a person's intentions.

Hear more into learning curves that Shawn and Brandi grew stronger in. Shawn addresses how this experience was traumatizing for him as well. Spiritual warfare was really strong during that time. Brandi expresses some of her struggles in communication.

Welcome to Part XLII of our Brain Drain trilogy's finale about how to undo the damage of harmful influences and brainwashing.

Don't automatically fall into false obligation or commit to something you can't follow through with. Set boundaries to avoid stress and rumbles in relationships. Don't let someone else's stress become your own. There's a difference between being courteous/accommodating and being a doormat that gets trampled into submission. Lack of self-esteem and fear of people can impede communication to let others know what's going on with you and some people truly don't care if you're busy.

Hear through a personal story how Shawn and Brandi had to work through a trigger for Brandi in a very social situation.

Welcome to Part XLI of our Brain Drain trilogy's finale about how to undo the damage of harmful influences and brainwashing.

Shawn begins by discussing how he and Brandi worked through trigger words, phrases, and actions. Her captor did what the counterfeit do best…he twisted the meaning of even "normal" or positive phrasings. It's important to disambiguate and control reactions by rationalizing the true circumstance of working through them.

Hear how different stimuli stack when it comes to trauma and how it can show itself in different situations.

Welcome to Part XL of our Brain Drain trilogy's finale about how to undo the damage of harmful influences and brainwashing.

Brainwashers make you codependent on them as well as believing you need them for survival itself. They mask your identity until it's unrecognizable to you…and that's if you knew it in the first place. Brandi learned through experience how God can and will undue all the twisting and warping within you. When coming out of it, you need to reinforce the truth about you over yourself. God specifically designed all of us…seek and ask Him for more revelation of who you truly are.

Hear how we should be childlike in our excitement, wonder, and discovery. It's ok to be in a process and needing fine tuning. Enjoy your growth spurts with God. Shawn begins sharing parts of the deprogramming processes that Brandi worked through with him.
