The Rest Effect
Brought to you by Rest Easy Collective, The Rest Effect is your go-to podcast for practical rest in modern life. What began as the official podcast of Rest Easy Expo Podcast has now evolved into something deeper — a space to explore the everyday impact of rest, sleep, and self-care.
Hosted by Holly Allen, massage therapist and founder of Rest Easy Collective, each episode offers real conversations, expert insights, and supportive strategies to help you pause, reset, and feel more like yourself again.
From behind-the-scenes chats with wellness professionals to honest stories about burnout, boundaries, and nervous system support — this podcast is here to remind you: rest isn’t a luxury, it’s the starting point.
Because when you make space to rest, everything changes.
Whether you're a long-time listener or just tuning in, don’t worry — all previous episodes are still available, and there’s so much more to come.

Unlocking Better Sleep: Insights from a Sleep Lab Technologist
In this episode, I’m joined by Fraser Willsey, a Sleep Lab Technologist with over 20 years of experience in diagnosing sleep disorders. Fraser shares his expertise on why sleep tests are crucial, who should consider getting one, and what the process involves. We also explore how sleep impacts mental health and how our environment can disrupt our circadian rhythms. Sleep is the foundation of our well-being, yet it's often overlooked. Together, we discuss the need for a global mindset shift to prioritise sleep as a key pillar of health. Whether you're struggling with sleep or simply curious about the science behind it, this episode will offer valuable insights to improve your rest.
