Episode Details

What if everything you’ve been told about health — early workouts, late-night eating, “calories in vs out” — is quietly destroying your energy, hormones, and ability to lose weight?

In this eye-opening episode of Conversations with Sekani, Jason Yun (former fitness studio owner and nutrition coach) shares his powerful transformation. After burning out with low energy, poor sleep, and failing client results despite “doing everything right,” he discovered circadian biology — the science of light, sleep, daily rhythms, and how they control everything from fat loss to hormones.

Jason breaks down:

• Why light environment > food & workouts

• The dangers of blue light, late eating, and early bootcamps

• How sunrise viewing and proper rhythms fix energy naturally

• Why people with darker skin need more sunlight

• Sunlight’s role in vitamin D, insulin, and real recovery

If you’re struggling with stubborn weight, constant fatigue, poor sleep, or feeling “off” no matter what you try — this conversation will completely rewire how you think about health.
