She's basically saying there is no separation and no subject/object distinction. One must understand that non duality is a highly nuanced thing, which most people STUCK in the Materialist Paradigm will never understand. There is no you...and no brain that "represents" you.

To know God, we must go out of our conceptual minds.
'we' do NOT have "conceptual minds".
The 'person' is the 'thoughts' within a body. Thought is where 'concepts' live, and lay, or exist, and play.

Except that without a species that conceptualized up the word 'God', and without a conceptual construct of 'God', Itself, then 'God' would literally be completely diminished in all ways without the thoughts, which exist within the human body.
However, what the word 'God', and what that word is actually in relation to exactly, of course, is NOT diminished in any way if human beings never came to exist.

Just as long there is a species existing, which was able to conceptualize up how to create all of this, and did actually create it all. Obviously, an electrical current present in a socket NEEDED some thing to have created all of this. An electrical current in lightning bolts obviously exists if human beings exist or not, but an electrical current to a socket ONLY exists because human beings have created that. So, this electrical current and the socked and the light globe DO DEPEND on human beings, just like the word 'God' and the concept of what 'God' is or could be DEPENDS on human beings as well.
And, if thee Truth be KNOWN for Thing to become into It's True Self, then It did need a species with enough computing power like that of the human being and its brain, to become Truly Self-actualized, Self-Aware, and/or Conscious of Its Self. Consciousness actually NEEDS a physical brain to become AWARE of Its Self.
Although Consciousness, Itself, would NEVER diminish without human beings existing, and Consciousness would just be Its True non-changing Self ALWAYS, with or without human beings. Thee Truth IS Consciousness NEEDED a physical species to evolve, with enough intelligence, for Consciousness, Itself to become Aware of It's Self.
