Why The Post-Breakup Story ALWAYS Changes On Guys
Today’s Spiritual Perspective is for the guys—the spiritual guys. Not the performative “nice guys,” But the men who genuinely try to show up—with heart, presence, and integrity. And yet, when things end, something unexpected happens: The story that gets told about you doesn’t quite match the truth you lived. Suddenly, you’re the narcissist. The one who was emotionally unavailable. The one who didn’t want to grow. Or worse… It’s a confusing—and often painful—experience. Especially when yo...

Why You’re Not Fulfilled — Even Though You’re "Successful"
You did everything right. You worked hard. You hit the milestones. You checked the boxes society said would make you feel fulfilled. And yet, something still feels off. In this episode, Light Watkins breaks down why material success—money, status, experiences, even achievement—so often fails to deliver the fulfillment we expect it to. From a spiritual perspective, fulfillment isn’t a reward you earn after success. It’s a state that has to be trained from the inside out. Light explains why cha...

Should You "Let Them" As A Spiritual Person?
You’ve probably heard the phrase by now—let them leave, let them disappoint you, let them talk. It’s the core of Mel Robbins’s viral Let Them theory. And while it sounds empowering on the surface, many spiritual seekers are finding themselves conflicted by it. Is “letting them” an act of strength… or avoidance? In this episode of The Spiritual Perspective, we explore what most people miss when they try to apply “let them” in real life. We talk about the illusion of control, the discomfort of...

How to Get Spiritual Gains (Using the Same Strategy for Getting Rich)
Most people approach inner work the same way they approach New Year’s resolutions—sporadically, emotionally, and only when life starts to fall apart. In this episode of The Spiritual Perspective, I break down a simple truth that applies to money, fitness, creativity, and spiritual growth alike: progress is a volume game. You don’t build wealth from one lucky break. You build it from steady, consistent inputs over time. Inner work works the same way. Occasional meditation, random gratitude, or...

The Spiritual Perspective on Making Resolutions
Every January, people make resolutions with the best intentions. And every February, most of those resolutions quietly disappear. Not because people don’t care or lack discipline—but because most resolutions are built around outcomes instead of actions. We resolve to “get in shape,” “make more money,” or “change our lives,” without thinking about what we’ll actually do on a busy Tuesday when motivation is low and life gets in the way. In this episode of The Spiritual Perspective, Light breaks...

How to "Be Yourself" (From The Spiritual Perspective)
You’ve heard the advice a thousand times: “Just be yourself.” But what does that actually mean—especially when you feel misunderstood, lonely, or like you don’t have power over your own life? In this episode, Light breaks down the real meaning of “being yourself” from a spiritual perspective. You’ll learn the difference between your impulses and your inner truth, why being authentic might cost you something (but will give you even more), and how to access the deeper part of you that’s been q...

How to Melt Away Stress in 2026
If you want 2026 to be the year you finally stop carrying around that heavy stress load, this episode gives you the three habits that actually move the needle. Think of stress like debt — the more you accumulate, the more it quietly taxes your energy, your relationships, your productivity, your health, and even your reputation. And most people are drowning in stress-debt without realizing it. Light breaks down a practical, spiritually grounded approach to lowering stress at the source: stop t...

You're "Spiritual, but not religious"? (Here's a simple way to express it)
If you've ever struggled to explain your beliefs without sounding vague, defensive, or “woo-woo,” you're not alone.

Intuition vs Insecurity: How to Tell The Difference
Most people confuse their fear voice with their intuition, and it quietly shapes their decisions, relationships, and opportunities. In this episode, I break down the real difference between insecurity and intuition from a spiritual perspective — and why telling them apart is the key to making better choices. You’ll learn how insecurity shows up as warnings, disclaimers, and “play-it-safe” thinking that comes from old experiences and stored embarrassment. You’ll also learn why intuition never...

How to SUPER-SIZE your perspective (and have more good days)
Ever feel like you’re doing everything right—checking all the boxes—but still end up stuck in the same patterns of frustration, anxiety, or overwhelm? In this episode, I break down why life feels so hard sometimes and how the way we see our challenges can either keep us trapped or set us free. We’ll explore the difference between operating at ground level—where every problem feels like a crisis—and learning to rise above the chessboard to see the bigger picture. You’ll learn: Why success a...

How to Make No Contact EASY
Most people think going “no contact” is simple: stop talking to the person, block them if you have to, and move on. But if you’ve ever tried it in real life, you already know it’s rarely that clean. You stop communicating on the outside, but on the inside you’re replaying conversations, checking their social media, wondering if you should reach out, or questioning whether you made the right call. In this episode, Light breaks down why no contact feels so hard — and the real reason you stay em...

When "Everything Happens for a Reason" Hurts
We’ve all been there. You’re going through something hard. And someone hits you with: “Everything happens for a reason.” Or… “Stay positive vibe.” Or… “You just need to let it go.” And in that moment, instead of feeling seen, you feel… dismissed. Like your pain didn’t get the memo that we’re all supposed to be enlightened now. In this week’s Spiritual Perspective, we’re talking about bypassing—specifically, how to recognize it without becoming the bypasser yourself. Because here’s the thing: ...

The Best Way To Connect To A Spirit Guide

That quiet voice in the middle of chaos? What if that was your spirit guide? But then again… What even is a spirit guide? And how can you tell if it’s real—or just something you made up?

5 Ways To Get Your Partner to Change (Without Them Knowing)
You’ve asked nicely. You’ve asked not-so-nicely. You’ve journaled, meditated, and maybe even forwarded them that one relationship reel. But somehow, your partner still isn’t getting the hint. It’s like they’re resistant to changing. And they get defensive or shut down whenever you bring it up. You’re left wondering… Is it me? Is it them? Or is this just how we are together? Can I do this for the rest of my life?? In this week’s Spiritual Perspective, we’re diving into what to do whe...
