Light Watkins grew up in Montgomery, Alabama in a family of six. He attended Howard University in Washington, DC, with aspirations of becoming an advertising creative. But after working for a boutique agency in Chicago for a few months, he decided to take some time off to explore the world.
Since 2007, Light has personally taught thousands of people from all walks of life how to enjoy a daily meditation practice in a self-sufficient way, and he’s positively impacted many more practitioners through his books, videos, and popular TEDx talk on the 5 Most Common Meditation Myths.
Light facilitates workshops and retreats around the world, and gives talks on happiness, mindfulness, inspiration, and leadership

- Last time he was on we talked his life journey.
