Is Splankna a biblically grounded healing modality, or is it simply New Age practice presented with Christian language?

In this candid conversation, Justina sits down with Sarah Thiessen, founder of Splankna, licensed marriage and family therapist, and the woman whose work has helped train more than 6,000 practitioners across nine countries.

Sarah shares how her dissatisfaction with traditional approaches to emotional healing led her into a seven-year process of prayer, study, and discernment. Together, Sarah and Justina explore the difference between God’s created mechanisms and the false worldviews that can become attached to them.

They address some of the most common questions and criticisms surrounding Splankna, including its relationship to energy psychology, EFT tapping, Reiki, New Age beliefs, witchcraft, muscle testing, and the subconscious mind. They also examine the heart posture behind spiritual practices and discuss why an action alone does not always reveal its spiritual source.

Most importantly, they explore the dynamic tension between developing skill as a practitioner and remembering that no protocol, technique, or person is the source of healing. God is the ultimate healer.

This episode invites believers to move beyond fear, assumptions, and misinformation and toward prayerful discernment, biblical truth, and an honest examination of the fruit.

A conversation about success, subconscious beliefs, nervous system regulation, identity, capacity, and why high-achieving women often struggle to fully step into greater impact, influence, income, and opportunities!

Branded for His Glory is a segment of the Soulfully Aligned You Podcast where I interview Christian Women and Men who give God the Glory for all their success.

In this powerful and deeply faith-centered conversation, Justina Ford sits down with Michelle Tascoe, multimillion-dollar financial coach and prophetic leader, to explore the emotional, spiritual, and practical layers of money stewardship.

Drawing from her 15+ years of coaching and her own journey out of $68,000 in credit card debt, Michelle shares how God rebuilt her identity, renewed her mind, and ultimately led her into a multi-million coaching business built completely without ads — only through obedience, anointing, and Holy Spirit strategy.

Together, they dive into:

Michelle explains the difference between hustling for visibility versus being branded by God—carrying His anointing, His wisdom, and His authority in business.

She breaks down why so many women fear their finances, avoid looking at their numbers, or carry shame around spending, debt, or mistakes.
Michelle teaches how to separate fact from feeling, and how changing a single sentence like “Money comes and goes” to “Money comes and grows” can shift everything.

The episode explores how emotions—anxiety, shame, fear, avoidance—shape the way women handle money, and how Holy Spirit–led healing allows them to finally feel empowered, confident, and financially free.

Michelle shares the five qualities required to step into your next-level self. These “ways of being” create the internal foundation for external results.

From conducting money audits, to increasing financial visibility, to creating new revenue streams through resourcefulness, Michelle gives grounded steps anyone can implement.

She vulnerably shares how she fell into debt, rebuilt her finances from nothing, discovered her calling through coaching, and grew her business through faith, not force.
Her testimony reminds women that you are not your spending, your choices are just information, and your future can look nothing like your past.

Justina and Michelle unpack what it looks like to steward money biblically, build a prosperous life without striving, and let God shape every decision — from business to spending to identity.

This episode is a lifeline for any woman of faith who feels:

✔ stuck in money shame
✔ overwhelmed by financial decisions
✔ afraid to look at her numbers
✔ inconsistent with budgeting
✔ unsure how to build wealth God’s way
✔ ready for inner healing around money

You will leave this conversation with clarity, confidence, and a renewed vision of what God wants to build through you.
