🎙️ Disclaimer: I’ve been told my natural speaking voice is better suited for a construction site than a sleep podcast. To prevent any accidental eardrum damage, I use high-quality AI narration for these episodes. The scripts are researched by me (with some AI help), but the voice is 100% digital and 100% more relaxing than mine.
