The Spiritual Perspective
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, join me every Monday and Thursday for new episodes of The Spiritual Perspective.
Your next breakthrough might be one perspective shift away.

From the Archive: Are We Asking Too Much of Our Relationships? Get The Spiritual Perspective
One of the biggest misconceptions we carry into relationships is the idea that our partner is there to make us happy. When they don’t meet this expectation, it’s easy to assume that there’s someone “better” out there—someone with fewer flaws, more compatibility, and better “customer service.”
But here’s the truth: Everyone has flaws, including you. And no matter who you’re with, you’ll eventually have to face the same lessons—because relationships aren’t about perfection; they’re about growth.
In this week’s Spiritual Perspective, I explore:
- Why chasing “better” often leads to the same challenges.
- The illusion of perfection, especially in highly attractive people.
- How matching values—not appearances or resources—is the true key to a lasting connection.
If this resonates, take a moment to reflect on the role of flaws in your relationships. Are they frustrating obstacles—or opportunities for deeper growth and understanding?
