“You don’t have to be great to start, but you have to start to be great.” – Zig Ziglar

What is inspiration, and where does it come from? If you’ve ever had a meaningful idea spark or felt deeply compelled to follow your heart toward a certain goal, then you know that being inspired is often a profound, intuitive feeling. But sometimes, we can get disconnected from our inspiration.  

If you’re seeking a way to reconnect with your intuition, overcome fear, and take action, today’s guest is here to show you the way. Author and world-renowned meditation teacher Light Watkins is back on The Model Health Show to share insights and inspiration from his new book, Knowing Where to Look. You’re going to hear powerful ideas about coping with stress, prioritizing your time, and how to find your intuitive inspiration. 

Light’s ideas and stories are profoundly motivating, and I hope this interview will encourage you to understand the depth of what is possible for you. You’re going to learn about positive thinking, channeling discipline, and so much more. Click play, listen in, and enjoy this interview with Light Watkins!
