"I probably started my training when I was about three years of age because when I was small, there was loads of turbulence at home and my dad was an alcoholic and there was domestic violence and lots of stuff happening at home. And I kind of learned when I was small to read a room and read people really fast."
"When we land into the world, we have two fears, loud noises and falling. That's it. Anything else like sharks and spiders. You acquired them along the way. But that's the only two that are with you from birth. And we have this undercurrent in all of us. It's tribal that we need to belong to the tribe. That's where safety lives. So, if we belong to the tribe, we have a much bigger chance of survival."
Early exposure to domestic turbulence and parental alcoholism can accelerate the development of rapid social-reading and observational skills in childhood. Children exposed to unpredictable environments learn to read rooms and people quickly as adaptive coping mechanisms. Humans are born with two innate fears: loud noises and falling; other fears such as sharks or spiders are acquired later through experience. A persistent undercurrent of tribal belonging motivates social behavior because belonging signals safety and improves chances of survival. These dynamics underlie approaches in Neuro Linguistic Programming aimed at understanding fear, belonging, and nonverbal social cues.
