Hello, Dreamer! I'm Larissa and I am a real person, not AI. I know how it feels to be exhausted but unable to sleep because of anxiety. I wrote and recorded these stories to give my listeners something calm to think about. When our brains are engaged with a soothing story, it is easier to relax and fall asleep. I also wanted to remind us, myself included, of the beautiful and good things in life. Almost all of these stories are inspired by my own memories. I tend to write them from a young person's perspective, usually a young teen, as I have so many stories from that period of my life. They are safe for all ages, so you can share them with anyone you like. I have been told that the pace of my episodes makes them useful to those who are learning English. I'm glad they are helpful in any way! I hope and pray that these tales will bring you joy and peace, and thus a healthier, happier life! Love, Larissa Langston © 2026 Larissa Langston.
