  • 7.03 Intro to the Inner Villains: Mapping Your Shadows, Inverting Your Archetypes
    Jul 8 2025

    In this deeply personal and paradigm-shifting episode, Kristina introduces the Inner Villain Transformation System—a shadow work model that synthesizes IFS, Human Design, the Enneagram, and primal wound theory into a single, coherent system. With co-host Anna, she explores how maladaptive patterns (like people-pleasing, perfectionism, and imposter syndrome) aren’t isolated quirks but interconnected arcs of transformation. Each “villain” isn’t something to banish, but a gateway to your most powerful legend self.


    Whether you resonate with Regina George, Darth Vader, or Nurse Ratched, this episode gives you a mythic yet grounded framework for recognizing and alchemizing your deepest inner patterns—one archetype at a time.


    Topics Covered:


    • The origin story of the Inner Villain system
    • Why maladaptive patterns show up in clusters
    • How the nine villains align with Human Design centers and Enneagram types
    • The concept of “negations” (deep limiting beliefs) and how they point to core villain archetypes
    • The development of the oracle deck and game
    • Understanding the arc: Pinnacle Villain → Sub-Villains → Hero → Legend
    • Inversion as the key spiritual movement (inspired by yoga, polarity, and karmic unwinding)
    • How gameplay and roleplay deepen awareness of inner dynamics
    • Disney character analogs for each Enneagram/villain archetype pairing


    Inner Villain Archetypes Introduced:

    • Type 1: Obedient Critic → Legend Form: Equalizer
    • Type 2: Vengeful Martyr → Legend Form: Nourisher
    • Type 3: Vain Controller → Legend Form: Inventor
    • Type 4: Eternal Child → Legend Form: Traveler
    • Type 5: Evasive Expert → Legend Form: Integrator
    • Type 6: Divisive Immortal → Legend Form: Healer
    • Type 7: Hungry Shapeshifter → Legend Form: Presence
    • Type 8: Righteous Bully → Legend Form: Channeler
    • Type 9: Invisible Destroyer → Legend Form: Architect


    Key Quotes:


    • “You don’t need to become a better person. You need to become better at change.”
    • “Villains are like pendulums—when we’re stressed, we swing into their worst form. When we’re grounded, we move toward the hero.”
    • “These aren’t parts. They’re entire universes.”
    • “You don’t jump stars—you invert the spin. That’s the hero moment.”
    • “Everyone has all nine villains. The goal is self-love across every domain of your life.”


    Game Mechanics Preview:


    • Oracle deck includes 63 cards: 9 Pinnacle Villains, 3 Sub Villains (Persecutor, Victim, Rescuer), Hero, Legend, and 9 Power Cards
    • Designed for solo shadow work or group gameplay
    • Involves roleplay, self-inquiry, and archetypal progression
    • Roleplay scenarios bring unconscious patterns into awareness through embodied practice
