This podcast helped me so much over the past few years with my insomnia and anxiety. I‘ve had panic attacks and severe anxiety ESPECIALLY when trying to go to bed. Some nights I would be unable to sleep until the sun rose at 6am. I was like a zombie. I tried melatonin, no screen time, herbal teas...Read full review »

I’m a lifelong poor sleeper, but Joanne’s calm and soothing readings, particularly of my childhood favorite “Little House” series, lulls me peacefully to sleep, usually before my bedtime story is done. Thank you!

There is a preliminary recitation to the stories: relax your arms and your hands, and now your fingers. . . (etc. etc) in Joanne's haunting voice. It's like hypnotism! I frequently am asleep before the story begins. Drift Off has been balm to my soul especially during this difficult...Read full review »

Joanne has been helping me sleep for a long time now. I have misophonia so find it hard to listen to a lot of podcasts but Joannes voice is soothing and soft without any annoying sounds mouth movements, sharp s’s or whistles haha. Thank you!

There are many choices for sleep time podcasts, and Joanne’s voice is great to listen to. Calm, soothing, like a soft blanket, I almost never get to hear the end of an episode. There are stories new to me as well as old favorites. Brava!!

I’ve suffered from chronic insomnia my whole life. On those long, sleepless nights, no podcast helps me better than Drift Off.

Drift off helps me fall asleep. The stories are wonderful and since I fall asleep before the podcast is over, I wind up listening to them more than once. Thank you for this wonderful podcast. They are a blessing.

I am so thankful I stumbled upon “Drift Off” to hear Joanne’s soothing voice. I really enjoy the stories about Maida and her friends. I usually fall asleep before the story ends so the next night I try to remember where I left off at. I love that there are no interruptions during the sleep stories!

I listen to this podcast every night, my favorite are the Laura Ingalls Wilder stories! The stories are told so nicely I usually fall asleep before she even starts the story! Love, love, love it.

Insomniac 64 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/13/24
Like correct way to say “ethereal”. Call me a crazy but if you have a podcast put out to the world and want them to pay you for it maybe it would be a good idea to make sure you read the story correctly. Rather jarring to hear fairly egregious mispronunciations; you keep waiting for the next...Read full review »

Not sure when or how this was recommended but I followed it. Recently having a harder time getting to sleep so tried this.

Loving the Plum Creek stories, brings me back to childhood and simpler times. Would love to hear The Waltons story being read by you. Thank you also for the relaxation at the beginning of the story just perfect to settle my mind .

At the risk of sounding crass, I literally wanted to celestially wall twerk when Maida’s Little Shop Ch. 4 came out. Love Joanne so much. Edited: I subscribed monthly. I don’t like the added minutes of silence that make the episode seem longer than it is. I have severe treatment-resistant sleep...Read full review »

This podcast is my go-to sleep podcast, I’ve literally fallen asleep so many times with the soft, calm voice of Joanne reading a story as I flop into my bed and sleep 🥱📖. Would definetly recommend to anyone who is new to the sleep podcast genre and to those who have anxiety.
