S6 Ep. 22: Circadian Health, Seasonal Eating & The Real Roots of Hormone Balance ; Tiffany Cagwin

In this episode of The Hormone Genius Podcast, we’re joined by a Certified Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner (FDN-P), Board Certified Holistic Health Practitioner (BCHHP), and Circadian Health Educator with a background in executive leadership, entrepreneurship, and transformational coaching. With advanced training spanning functional nutrition, applied quantum biology, nervous system regulation, and movement-based therapies, this conversation bridges modern health science with real-world implementation. Her work focuses on helping women step away from rigid wellness dogma and instead uncover the root causes of chronic fatigue, gut dysfunction, and hormonal disruption—so results are sustainable, not temporary. A central theme of this episode challenges one of the most overlooked drivers of gut and hormone health: You can’t heal the gut without sunlight. We break down how digestion, gut motility, enzyme secretion, microbiome balance, intestinal repair, blood flow, vitamin D production, melatonin signaling, and hormone regulation are all governed by circadian rhythms—and how those rhythms are set by light exposure. When we live out of sync with natural light and darkness, even the most well-designed supplements, elimination diets, and gut protocols often stall or fail. We also explore the role of seasonal eating as a biological signal—not a trend. Seasonal foods naturally align with changes in daylight, temperature, and metabolic demand, helping support insulin sensitivity, microbiome diversity, hormone signaling, and digestive capacity throughout the year. Eating the same way year-round, despite seasonal shifts in light exposure and energy needs, can quietly work against gut healing and metabolic stability. This episode covers: Why the gut has its own circadian clock How disrupted light exposure drives dysbiosis, inflammation, and sluggish digestion Why many gut protocols only work temporarily How seasonal eating reinforces circadian and hormonal balance The difference between overriding biology and restoring it She also shares her personal journey navigating autoimmune symptoms, how aligning nutrition, movement, stress management, and circadian timing transformed her health, and how that experience now shapes the way she supports clients. If gut or hormone healing keeps stalling despite “doing everything right,” this episode offers a powerful reframe: healing doesn’t come from doing more—it comes from working with biology.
