The story behind the podcast:
A little over three years ago, during the pandemic, Taesha's husband was struggling to fall asleep. The stress of the previous year was taking its toll. At bedtime, he would scroll through videos on his tablet and try to fall asleep to history programmes or documentaries. One night, Taesha joked that maybe she should read him a bedtime story. He laughed, but then the next day she started to research bedtime story podcasts and whether she could offer something unique to the market. A few months later, we launched Just Sleep - Bedtime Stories for Adults. Every week, we release two episodes of classic literature to listeners that struggle to sleep or just want to unwind at the end of the day. To date, the show has received over 17 million downloads with most listeners being from the US, UK and Canada. The show is one of the most listened to podcasts in the UK according to Apple podcasts and is one of the top Mental Health podcasts in the country.
