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.

When It Feels Like Your Partner Isn’t Growing: A Spiritual Take on Love, Growth, and Judgment
What do you do when your partner doesn’t seem interested in growth? Maybe you meditate, journal, or go to therapy—but they don’t. It’s one of the most common relationship frustrations among spiritually-aware people. In this episode, we zoom out and explore the spiritual perspective on what’s really happening when someone “doesn’t want to grow.”
You’ll discover why growth isn’t always visible, and how the urge to fix or push your partner may be revealing something deeper about your own journey. Light unpacks the difference between active and passive growth, the trap of spiritual superiority, and the hidden invitation to practice real love—not just the convenient kind.
Whether you’re the one feeling unseen or the one being accused of not evolving, this episode offers a compassionate reframing. You’ll leave with practical insight on how to inspire—not pressure—growth in your relationship, while learning to honor your partner’s path without judgment.
Because from a higher perspective, everyone is growing—just not always in the way we expect.
