Ever wonder what the spiritual perspective is on genocide? On cheating? On getting back with your ex? On toxic people? If so, this is your channel. You identify as spiritual — but you’ve still got questions about how to show up in life’s messiest, most nuanced situations. And you don’t have time for fluffy, feel-good answers that don’t hold up in the real world. This is where you’ll find a grounded spiritual take on life’s hardest questions. I’m Light Watkins — keynote speaker, author, and longtime meditation teacher — and every week, I share short, no-BS videos that help you zoom out, tune in, and reframe what you’re going through. If you’re tired of surface-level advice and ready to go deeper, hit subscribe. Your next breakthrough might be one perspective shift away.
