In this episode we: * Explain the concept of instincts, subtypes and countertypes * Kick off the series exploring the fear-based thinking triad countertypes - the sexual 5, sexual 6 and social 7 * Talk about why the self pres 7 isn’t a countertype and the social 7 is (Tara is confused about this) * Wonder if Kurt Cobain and Trent Reznor are sexual 5s * Explore themes of toxic masculinity in sexual 6s, *trigger warning, we talk about animal abuse during this part as well*, and a sexual 6’s relationship with authority and others The next episode will be focused on the countertypes in the shame/feeling triad types 2, 3 and 4.

In this episode: * Tara rants about how 9s can be passive-aggressive (if you’re a 9 this might be triggering) * We talk about Kourtney’s interactions and conflict with Kim and Khloe and Kourtney merging with Travis * A little bit of talk about 9s on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills * The potential differences between a 9 and 8 when interacting or in conflict * We ask any 9s who made it to the end, what triggers a 9 to become passive-aggressive and wonder how disconnection to both parents influences general stress levels in relationships, potentially for sexual-dominant 9s? I hope Kris Jenner doesn’t find this episode Also where's Rob?
