The Lindsay Brown Show

Episode 09 - Manipulation Isn't Maturity: Sunshine, Stop the Games

In Episode 9 of The Lindsay Brown Show, Lindsay pulls back the curtain on one of the most overlooked relationship blockers: manipulation. She breaks down how emotional games—whether subtle or overt—disrupt connection and delay the love God designed for us.

With practical tools, relatable storytelling, and a whole lot of truth wrapped in grace, Lindsay guides you from confusion to clarity. You’ll hear a powerful Sunshine Story, reflect during a heartfelt Mirror Moment, and gain coaching insights that help you communicate with maturity and love.

We’ll also explore how Ephesians 4:15 anchors this episode—calling women into truth spoken in love, not manipulation masked as power.

Whether you’ve used silence, testing, or passive-aggression to protect your heart, this episode will help you lay those habits down and pick up emotional wisdom rooted in faith.
