Do these people trigger you?
Someone in your life has already decided what kind of person you are.
And in their mind, you’re not the hero—you’re the villain.
You’ve been reduced to a single event, a one-dimensional version of yourself that ignores your complexity, your great intentions, and your humanity.
Feels unfair, right?
But here’s the hard truth: you’ve probably done the same thing to someone else.
We all have.
It’s human nature to put people in a box: “He’s cool.” “She’s a narcissist,” “They’re toxic.”
Especially if someone triggers us.
It’s easier than holding space for contradictions, for the possibility that someone who frustrates you might also have their own pain, fears, and truth.
True spirituality asks more of us.
It challenges us to embrace the messy, uncomfortable middle ground where multiple truths can coexist.
In today’s Spiritual Perspective, we’re diving into how to navigate relationships with people who push our buttons—whether it’s Elon Musk, a neighbor, or your own family—without compromising your truth.
And just to be clear, this isn’t about Elon Musk.
He’s just a stand-in for that person (or people) in your life.
If you’re ready to transform the way you handle difficult people—and discover more peace, clarity, and freedom in the process—this one is for you.
Listen now to take the first step toward neutralizing your triggers.
To your growth,
Light
