Homelessness, Bipolar and Music: Surviving Las Vegas Streets


Listen Later

Asher has lived through the kind of instability most of us can’t imagine: sleeping on the streets of Las Vegas, struggling with bipolar disorder, and fighting through the chaos of addiction. Yet in the middle of it all, one thing kept her alive: music.
In this episode, Asher shares the raw truth about survival with no safety net: what it feels like to hit rock bottom, the daily battle of mental illness, and the small sparks of creativity that became lifelines. From finding rhythm in the noise of the streets to discovering the healing power of song, her story is both heartbreaking and deeply human.
If you’ve ever questioned how much a person can endure, wondered whether art can truly save a life, or needed proof that resilience is possible even in the darkest places, this conversation is for you. It’s a real, unfiltered look at homelessness, bipolar disorder, addiction, and the transformative force of music.
