- 0:00the masochist wounding. If this is left unhealed, they can
- 0:03turn into... When you have had the psychopathic wounding and
- 0:06you heal that within yourself, then you become an amazing leader.
- 0:10Until you heal that within yourself, you can be a
- 0:14You know of the four main nervous system responses, fight,
- 0:18fright, freeze, and fawn, but you probably don't realize
- 0:22that there's another two that are in there as well. The first one is Welcome
- 0:26Wisdom Keepers, Soul Tribe and New Earth Leaders to
- 0:30Soul Temple, your haven for self-discovery and growth.
- 0:34I'm Blythe Langford and I am your guide to finding yourself and
- 0:37your true, true, true, true, true purpose. Together, let's
- 0:41shift from feeling stark and misaligned to living a
- 0:44life of purpose and prosperity. Is
- 0:50trauma impacting your business growth? This
- 0:53is an interesting one because a lot of entrepreneurs are like, I don't need to deal with my past. That's really
- 0:57just ridiculous because I am so successful in
- 1:00my business. And if I concentrate on my past and take time out
- 1:04from my business, then how am I going to get any growth? Yes,
- 1:08I hear you because I used to think the same. Why do I need to concentrate
- 1:12on all of the shadows and all of the dark things in order to have growth
- 1:15in my business? Let's just do like another marketing thing or like let's just put
- 1:18some time into a new software or AI development so
- 1:22that we can grow our business. yet there is an underlying
- 1:27trauma that we live each and every
- 1:30day from. So I'm going to talk to you about these because I want you
- 1:34to be able to see how they are either parts
- 1:37of you or people around you. because the type
- 1:41of breathwork that I've done, we studied basic psychology. And so
- 1:44these five trauma responses, these
- 1:49five trauma wounds, will literally help you understand where
- 1:53your greatest trauma was. And then once you can
- 1:56understand where your greatest trauma was from your past, your
- 2:00childhood, then you'll be able to see how much it
- 2:03affects everything that you do. You get your greatest imprints
- 2:07in life from conception to seven years old, and
- 2:10that is 100% true and correct. First of
- 2:13all, we get in the womb, we get imprinted with
- 2:17our DNA. What are you talking about? Our DNA is
- 2:20already part of us. No, it's not, sweetheart. Our
- 2:24DNA is an imprint that our mother creates for
- 2:27us over the nine, 10 months that we are in the womb. So
- 2:31every experience that she has, every thought that she
- 2:34has, every food that she eats, every situation
- 2:38that's going on in the world, whether there be a war, whether there be a death in the family,
- 2:42whether there be a house burning down, whether it
- 2:45be a friend that she loses, her dog that dies, all of these feelings
- 2:49create imprints in us of how we
- 2:53react and feel things. It's
- 2:56also known as our epigenetics. So our epigenetics and
- 2:59our DNA goes back four generations. So our mom, our
- 3:04grandma, great grandma, great, great, great grandma, right? So that
- 3:07is what creates our epigenetics. And I know a lot of people, especially close friends
- 3:11to me are all alike epigenetics shows you everything and let's live
- 3:14to our epigenetics. I'm like, screw that. I don't want
- 3:17to live for the last four generations of my trauma. I want
- 3:20to go beyond that to back where people were all
- 3:24good and go back to my organic state and live from that place where
- 3:27like you can live a thousand years old and freaking feel as happy as anything and be a
- 3:30magical being. That's why your conception is
- 3:34so interesting because your mother's experience
- 3:38will create you and how you
- 3:41live every day of your life and your birth then
- 3:45creates how you interact with the world. So,
- 3:50for example, my birth was so messy.
- 3:55My mum thought she was having me. She got me to the hospital. My dad wouldn't let
- 3:58her go to the hospital because he was a farmer. He's like,
- 4:02you're not having the baby because he birthed cows. So he thought that he knew better. My
- 4:06mother called the hospital and said, I'm having the baby. And my dad was like,
- 4:09you're not having the baby. We're not going to the hospital. We're going to have a cup of tea, go back to bed. And
- 4:13so the hospital's there stressing out, wondering why they haven't showed
- 4:16up to the hospital. You know, my mum's doctor wasn't
- 4:20there, so it was three days in labour. That's it, you know, we
- 4:23need to do an emergency caesarean, the baby's not coming, da-da-da-da. And then my
- 4:26dad ended up having an argument with this dude, nearly got into a punch-up, got
- 4:30kicked out of the hospital room. It was just chaos. and
- 4:34drama, right? And then
- 4:37I went into stress as a baby and then they like cut
- 4:41mum open, gave her all the drugs so she was passed out and I was birthed into
- 4:44the world. Had no flesh with either one of
- 4:47my parents straight away. I was there with the doctors for who knows how long and
- 4:51then my dad was able to hold me for a little while but because it was 10 o'clock at
- 4:54night then I went into a humidity crib and was by myself until
- 4:58my mum was okay the next day to see me. So I
- 5:01had no skin to skin, I had extreme trauma
- 5:05in that moment and that was my first experience of the world. This
- 5:09is so common for so many of us and we don't actually realize that
- 5:13the root, like we always want to get to the root cause and the reason we do all this personal development
- 5:17and all these things is to get to the root cause of our issues so
- 5:20that we can be better in our businesses and our lives and our relationships. but
- 5:23we never actually go back this far. We always just concentrate on the mindset, the
- 5:27NLP and all of the things, yet this is where our
- 5:31core traumas are birthed and this is where our epigenetics are
- 5:34created, our DNA, and this is the place that we actually get to resolve
- 5:38these things as well. So, that's how your birth
- 5:42trauma can continually show up in your life
- 5:45for, you know, especially overachievers. We generally have
- 5:49a lot of chaos and drama and trauma
- 5:52in our past. That's why we're such great problem solvers because we've had
- 5:56to deal with so much crap just to be alive and
- 5:59make it through our family and our life. Now, let's
- 6:03go into these five core wounds. The first one
- 6:06is, I'm going to go through them and then I'll go in and explain them each one. We've
- 6:10got first, the schizoid wounding. These
- 6:14are terrible names because they were created a long time ago in the 40s.
- 6:18Second, we've got the oral wounding. Then we've got the masochist. Then
- 6:23we've got the psychopath. Then we've got the
- 6:26rigid. So let's go into the schizoid. The
- 6:30schizoid wounding happens at birth. You
- 6:33know when a baby doesn't stop screaming? There's like a technique that happens
- 6:37called scream technique where you let the baby scream and scream and scream and then
- 6:40eventually it'll calm itself down and then it will
- 6:43start to sleep by itself. What's actually happening
- 6:47is the baby goes into a state of terror. It's so terrifying
- 6:52that it screams, it screams, it screams, it screams, it screams so much and you've
- 6:55seen these babies that they scream so much then they just pass
- 6:59out. What's happening in that moment is the baby's spirit
- 7:03and soul leaves its body because it
- 7:07is so traumatized and feels so
- 7:11unsafe and so neglected in that moment that it has to tap
- 7:14out because there is no way it could survive in that moment. So it
- 7:17leaves its body and that's known as a schizoid wounding.
- 7:22So this happens in the birth because it is so traumatic. They're
- 7:26cutting umbilical cords, they're slapping babies on the bum so that it screams. This
- 7:30is its first experience of life that's supposed to be beautiful
- 7:34and loving and nurturing on this world and it's in this freaking
- 7:38hospital room that looks like a spaceship with aliens, like, all
- 7:42in white gowns with face masks and on. Like, it's crazy when
- 7:45you think about it. Bright lights, like, so unnatural. And they
- 7:49cut it from its source, which is its placenta that's supposed to keep
- 7:52pulsating all of the vitamins and nutrients and minerals so the baby never
- 7:56gets sick again. And you might recognize within yourself or
- 7:59recognize other people that have this schizoid wounding, it generally looks
- 8:03like somebody that is more lanky. quite lanky in
- 8:06their body and very
- 8:11creative, like they love gaming, they love to not be
- 8:15in the world, they are an artist, they're very by
- 8:18themselves, they can be somebody that's completely disassociated
- 8:22from reality, that it's like just so hard to be here
- 8:26and they're never actually, you know, they always look like they've
- 8:30got fear in their eyes because they're just in this permanent
- 8:33state of shock and terror that's imprinted them so
- 8:38much as a child, as a baby, that you just see it
- 8:41in their eyes. They're often scared and they're generally running in their nervous
- 8:44system 24-7. Second of all, we've got the oral
- 8:47wounding. Now, the oral has two parts of it. It's the oral and then
- 8:51the compensated oral. Let me explain. The oral wounding is
- 8:54literally what comes next in the developmental stage. Oral
- 8:58wounding is generally somebody that wasn't breastfed, that
- 9:04didn't have that skin-to-skin connection with their mother and was
- 9:09is it feels so needy. They're the people that take up
- 9:13so much time in their communication. Like, you know, you give them your...
- 9:17Back in the day before we had mobiles, you know, you'd be on the phone and you'd be like, they'd
- 9:20talk for two hours and then you'd get one second in before they get off the phone. You're
- 9:24like... How is this a relationship? You
- 9:27know, it's all about them all the time. They outwardly
- 9:30express everything. They don't internally process
- 9:34a lot. They externally process and need to talk so
- 9:38much just so that they can understand life. They're always
- 9:42just needing the attention, needing the attention. And for
- 9:46somebody that's a compensated oral, you can be repelled by this
- 9:49person. A lot of people are repelled by this energy because it comes across as so needy.
- 9:54And we all have all of these wounds, so whilst
- 9:57you might be really repelled by this, we all
- 10:01have some of this within us as well. So that's the oral wounding.
- 10:05And their significant part on their body
- 10:08that you would notice is they have a little hole in their chest, like a little
- 10:11divot right in their ribcage, like you'll
- 10:15actually be able to see there's a hole there. A lot of orals
- 10:18have that. So with an oral wounded boss, what
- 10:22it would look like is somebody that's always externally processing,
- 10:26always is in control, never really has the time or
- 10:30capacity to listen to their team, doesn't even consider what their
- 10:33team is going through or how the information they're sharing with
- 10:36their team lands. because it's all about them and their internal
- 10:40dialogue being expressed. It's all about their ideas and there's no
- 10:43time for anybody else's ideas because they're the most amazing person in the world. The compensated oral
- 10:47is the flip side of the oral wounding. So rather than being
- 10:51externally needing, they're the opposite where they
- 10:55aren't even aware that they're actually so independent but yet
- 10:58so needy of somebody's love and so they will push everybody away
- 11:02hoping that somebody gives them the attention. I'm a compensated oral
- 11:06with a psychopath. Anyway, so we all have all of these wounds.
- 11:10And now this can show up by somebody, this is so common
- 11:13with business owners and high achievers. I'm going to do everything myself until
- 11:17you learn to delegate, that is. I'm going to do everything myself. I'm going to learn every single role. I
- 11:20can do it all. I don't need to delegate anything because I got
- 11:23it. I can do all of this and I will get everybody into the team and I will tell them
- 11:27all how it's all done. But at the end of the day, I am the independent one. I'm
- 11:30the one that's running everything. I know exactly how I'm going to do everything because I
- 11:34can do it all myself. And then we've got our third trauma response, which is
- 11:37the masochist wounding. Now the masochist happens after
- 11:41the oral, so these are all in sequence, okay? So the masochist happens
- 11:45next. Now the masochist had to be the happy child, had
- 11:49to be okay with everything, everything's fine, don't worry, everything's
- 11:53okay. Now we call them the smiling assassin.
- 11:57because externally they are so happy and so bubbly and
- 12:00will just, you know, you can rely on them for everything, they're amazing
- 12:04and they're generally like this, you know. But underneath
- 12:07they have so much repressed anger and suppressed anger that
- 12:12if this is left unhealed they can turn into
- 12:16a terrorist, okay? Like it's legit that
- 12:19bad. Their unresolved anger and
- 12:23repressed anger is dangerous. So
- 12:27that's why these wounds are
- 12:30extremely important to deal with and inner child work is
- 12:33very important to deal with. Now, how a masochist shows up in their
- 12:36business is pretty similar. Like, I can do everything. Everything's okay. Everything's
- 12:40fine. But then they have passive-aggressive attacks at their staff, you
- 12:44know? Or they might have that little bit of an anger thing
- 12:47come out and it's like, oh my god, I'm so sorry, I didn't even mean that, I don't know why I said that. So
- 12:51a masochist body shape is somebody, because they literally have
- 12:54this repressed anger, is somebody that is bottom-heavy. So
- 12:58what I mean by that is they're quite hippie. You might know a
- 13:02certain family. Kardashians that
- 13:05are all quite bottom-heavy, you know? That would be a specific,
- 13:10very clear masochist. A masochist has got so much repressed anger,
- 13:14but on the other side of that, they are just the most loving
- 13:18out of everybody because they've experienced such suppression and
- 13:21so their love is unbounded. It's so beautiful. Next,
- 13:25we have number four, the psychopath. Now, this is
- 13:28the most triggering word for everybody. Guess who's a psychopath? Moi.
- 13:34Psychopathic people that speak with those crazy eyes
- 13:37because they are like manipulating you with their eyes. They think
- 13:41that they're being really spiritual, but it's actually a psychopathic wounding. Ew.
- 13:46I didn't realize that for a very long time. And I just thought I was like
- 13:49with all these other spiritual people, we're all just being spiritual. We actually
- 13:52have major psychopathic woundings. So what
- 13:56that means is that you had a parent that you
- 13:59were a COE for. a codependent. They were
- 14:03a narcissist and they had top-down authoritarian and
- 14:07everything that they said went and you were having
- 14:10to suppress everything and just It was generally
- 14:14a war zone of chaos that you grew up in and that
- 14:17narcissist was always right. They were always right.
- 14:21So you might find that you've got a wounding of never being able to be wrong because you
- 14:24had to be right for your mum or your dad. For me, my mum was my narcissist.
- 14:28So I was her codependent and I would do anything
- 14:32for her. You are so loyal. You are
- 14:35so loyal and you have had the craziest leaders lead
- 14:39you. That's what makes you a great leader. When you have
- 14:43had the psychopathic wounding and you heal that within
- 14:46yourself, then you become an amazing leader. But
- 14:50until you heal that within yourself, you can generally be
- 14:54a narcissist boss. So what that means is
- 14:57you can manipulate people to do things for you and you can use your
- 15:00crazy eyes to be overbearing. Yes,
- 15:04we thought we were spiritual coming from our heart. Our wounding is
- 15:08saying another thing. Gosh, it's so tricky, isn't it? So
- 15:12the psychopathic wounding obviously says that if
- 15:15this wound is left unhealed and mixed with another wound. masochist,
- 15:20then you can create a psychopath, narcissist, also
- 15:23a sociopath. So this is a really important wound to
- 15:27do some inner child work on because this will highly affect
- 15:31your business because people don't like being manipulated or
- 15:35you'll have such intense relationships with your team
- 15:38and your staff that are unhinged. They're actually
- 15:42unhinged and that's when that person will end up leaving and it will
- 15:45be like a catastrophe and You know, they might steal your database
- 15:49or they might like steal from you. All these crazy things
- 15:52will happen, but it's because you've also been that
- 15:55within the business. And then number five is the rigid
- 15:59wounding. Now, rigids have, it's the last
- 16:02developmental stage, right? So they have gotten through all
- 16:06of the other stages without any deep trauma. Now,
- 16:10how this shows up in people is literally through their
- 16:13body. They are symmetrically really balanced
- 16:17because every one of these previous traumas causes
- 16:20a physical impact on the body. So they can be
- 16:24not as tall, they will not have symmetry in
- 16:27their body. Whereas the rigid, they're generally taller, they're
- 16:31generally symmetrical, they're generally really beautiful people,
- 16:35they're generally people that are celebrities and go into fame. because
- 16:39they haven't had those previous woundings, so they're a lot more confident in
- 16:42themselves, and they're just naturally being praised a
- 16:45lot for being so beautiful. So they feel more confident in
- 16:49themselves. Rigids are also generally people that
- 16:53are very regimented, that set themselves up very
- 16:56well to succeed, that are very much in their heads, that are super organized, very
- 17:00much results-driven, but don't enjoy the journey because
- 17:03it's all about the next win, the next win, the next win. So you can see a lot of
- 17:06bosses are like this. They're like, yep, this is where we're going, this is where we're going. And
- 17:10then it's like they're a psycho the whole way or they're completely not
- 17:14present. Sometimes the rigids are generally mixed with
- 17:17a schizoid wounding. So they're very action orientated
- 17:20and very about the final place, but then they're out of their
- 17:24bodies and disassociated a lot of the time. They can generally be somebody that
- 17:27has obsessive compulsive. right? And a lot of addictive
- 17:31behaviors and things that are done like too schedule and
- 17:35very, very rigid. So that's
- 17:39the trauma side of it. But a healed rigid is an
- 17:42amazing mission and visionary and pioneering leader,
- 17:46right? Because they can not only have
- 17:49the detail but have the greater mission and the vision and the
- 17:52pioneering skills to get there and they also have the confidence within
- 17:56them that they are going to make it no matter what. I'm pretty
- 17:59sure that you can relate to at least one of them and
- 18:03then the people around you, you can absolutely see how
- 18:07or who they are or where their wounds come from. And
- 18:10I'm hoping, and I'll touch on this, but I'm hoping that you can see
- 18:14how our childhood wounds and how our birth imprints literally
- 18:18are the root cause of how we show up each and every day. Like when I
- 18:21started to go into this, I actually realized that my wounds
- 18:26were running everything in my
- 18:29life and I was pretty grossed
- 18:33out by it. If you can attune to what
- 18:36it is that you feel your biggest birth wound is, or
- 18:40biggest childhood wounding is, where you're potentially
- 18:43that body shape, and I'm not talking about your plastic body. If you've gotten
- 18:47plastic surgery, I'm talking about your previous body, where your body
- 18:50shape would be, where your psychopathic eyes
- 18:54are, where your rigidity is and how, oh my gosh, I'm a bit
- 18:57obsessive-compulsive, or where your big
- 19:01hips are and you're potentially pushing down and suppressing a
- 19:04lot and your passive-aggressive nature and your smiley assassin-ness, or
- 19:08your neediness, whether it be like externally needing or whether it's
- 19:11like, I wish that they would give me more attention, but I'm
- 19:15just going to do it all by myself. Or whether it's your schizoid, it's like, Farrah,
- 19:18I don't even want to be here. Like, I just never want to be here. Oh my gosh, it's
- 19:22so hard to be in the world, of the world. I don't
- 19:25feel like I belong at all. So see where it
- 19:28is that you potentially have a bit of work to work
- 19:31on. And where your responses to certain situations might
- 19:35show up, do you generally fall into blaming or
- 19:40guilting or passive-aggressive trauma responses, which
- 19:43is toxic feminine? Or do you generally fall into shaming
- 19:48and being angry, which is your more masculine wounding?
- 19:54So you can start to see this might have, whether it's the toxic feminine or
- 19:57the toxic masculine, it might have come more so from your mother or
- 20:00your father, and that will be your significant
- 20:04wound. For myself, it's my mother. So a
- 20:08lot of my internal rapport mechanisms and how
- 20:11I relate to the world comes through this feminine
- 20:15wounded place. Now, I want to also explain how
- 20:19these show up in the nervous system as well, because
- 20:22this will help to even take it that level deeper for you
- 20:25as well. Now, you know of the four main nervous
- 20:29system responses, which is fight, fright, freeze, and
- 20:33fawn. Now, they are the ones that are heavily promoted, but
- 20:37you probably don't realise that there's another two that are in
- 20:40there as well. Feasting and, excuse my French, fucking. Are
- 20:44you an obsessive eater? And so many people are like, oh my gosh, I'm
- 20:47an obsessive eater. I didn't realise that that's my nervous system response to
- 20:51how I deal with something. I
- 20:54was being G'd up for a long time. And then some men and women are
- 20:57like, I'm a fucker. That's how I deal with everything. That's how I relate. That's how
- 21:00I calm my nervous system down. So this is really important information
- 21:04for us to see how we respond to things and
- 21:07then create a holistic plan for how we
- 21:11are going to work on ourselves to benefit our business.
- 21:15Now, if you notice that you're especially a
- 21:18business owner, like I used to be in the retail industry and
- 21:21fucking was a total nervous system response for a lot of straight men. Like
- 21:25they would be predator energy, leaking energy over younger
- 21:29women and manipulate them into doing things that are
- 21:32not okay. You know, like older men with young women.
- 21:36So noticing these things about yourself and especially
- 21:40like if you have pedophilic thoughts, like this is totally
- 21:43a thing. If you have pedophilic thoughts, That's something that's wired
- 21:47into your nervous system and it's something that
- 21:50you can deal with. It's not something that needs
- 21:54to be stuck with you forever. There is in
- 21:57countries such as the Philippines, they literally have
- 22:01a healing modality that they work with their pedophiles and they've got an
- 22:0489% success rate. There are healing tools
- 22:08and remedies that can actually help with every single one of these. But
- 22:12it also starts with, like I was saying, these five childhood
- 22:15wounds, which literally knowing which one you are and
- 22:18then being able to go and do healing within this. This is
- 22:22why I do rebirthing breathwork. This is why we heal these wounds within my
- 22:25program. So the one takeaway I would love you to gain from
- 22:28this episode is realizing that your nervous system controls
- 22:32your entire life. And it's probably been wired to
- 22:36something that you have been rejecting, suppressing, and putting
- 22:40away, and shutting down, and all of those things. And once you
- 22:43learn to regulate your nervous system, it'll completely change your life. This
- 22:47one thing is the gold. Just this one thing will
- 22:50take you from your sympathetic nervous system back to your parasympathetic nervous
- 22:54system. Slow exhales. Slow
- 22:58exhales literally tells the body to go from your sympathetic back
- 23:01to your parasympathetic. Whenever you're triggered, whenever you're anything, it'll go
- 23:05from that wounded little version of yourself back into your conscious mind. So it
- 23:08literally changes your brain function. And that's why I just want to touch on this for my program,
- 23:11The Divinity Method. We go through cleaning up, growing
- 23:15up. waking up, and then showing up. They are the
- 23:18four pillars. You can see why this is so vitally important, right? And
- 23:21I hope that with you, even if you're not coming to my retreat, then
- 23:25or doing my programs, that you start to concentrate on
- 23:29these areas, going in and internally cleaning up. growing up
- 23:32these younger parts of yourself, awakening to the true possibility
- 23:37of who you are, your mission, your purpose, your leadership, and
- 23:40then showing up in the world as the person that you know that you're here to be without any
- 23:44of your wounds. So the first step that you could do to acknowledge where
- 23:48you're at and start the healing process is acknowledge where
- 23:51you're at in the comments below. Let us know. Let us know where
- 23:54you think you are, what you think you're currently working through, because
- 23:58remember, we're all something at any one time. So it's
- 24:01okay to normalize what we are. It's actually perfect
- 24:05because once we put it out there, we start to heal it. It will literally change
- 24:08your life forever. Thank you for joining me on Soul
