The Spiritual Perspective
Have you ever faced a challenging situation—in your relationships, finances, personal growth, or family life—where the next step seemed impossible to figure out?
As Einstein wisely noted, we can't solve problems from the same level of consciousness that created them. To find meaningful solutions, we must expand our awareness. This is where The Spiritual Perspective comes in.
From Light Watkins—meditation teacher, bestselling author, and spiritual mentor—comes a fresh approach to life's everyday challenges. Each Monday, Light offers a broader understanding of common dilemmas that often leave us feeling stuck.
We often make choices based on society's definition of success while ignoring our heart's deeper guidance. The Spiritual Perspective helps you see your challenges from a higher vantage point, empowering you to make choices that are truly aligned with your spiritual nature.
This weekly series offers fresh insights on topical issues, practical ways to tune into your intuition, and guidance for making spiritually-aligned choices.
Join Light every Monday for a new way of looking at old problems—one that will inspire you to trust and follow your inner guidance.

How To Handle Toxic People. Get The Spiritual Perspective
We’ve all dealt with toxic people.
The narcissists. The manipulators. The gaslighters. The ones who drain your energy and leave you questioning everything.
So we do what we’ve been taught: Set boundaries. Cut them off. Stay away.
Because toxic people never change, right?
But what if we’ve been thinking about this all wrong?
What if the real issue isn’t about who’s toxic—but rather the dynamic you have with them?
Think about it like this: Every relationship has an expiration date. And when you keep engaging past that expiration date, things start to go sour.
You feel drained. Annoyed. Resentful. Not because they’re toxic—but because you didn’t respect your limit.
In today’s Spiritual Perspective, I’m offering a completely different way to think about so-called toxic people and why protecting your peace isn’t about changing them, but about recognizing when the connection has expired.
If you’ve ever struggled with difficult people in your life, this episode is for you.
