In this episode of The Awakening Spaces Podcast, Ashley sits down with electrical engineer, circadian health educator, and Daylight Computer Co. co-founder Tristan Scott for a wide-ranging, deeply grounded conversation about the invisible forces shaping modern health. Together, they explore how light, electromagnetics, and technology design are quietly influencing our nervous systems, hormones, sleep, focus, and sense of connection to the natural world.
Tristan brings a rare bridge between engineering, biology, and lived experience, breaking down complex topics like circadian rhythm, artificial lighting, EMFs, screen flicker, and tech addiction in a way that’s both accessible and empowering. They discuss why smartphones may be the single most disruptive environmental exposure of our time, why harmonizers and pendants often miss the mark, and what it actually looks like to design technology that supports human biology instead of exploiting it. This episode is for anyone building or renovating a home, raising children in a digital world, questioning their relationship with technology, or seeking practical ways to restore rhythm, clarity, and nervous system regulation in a modern environment.
