"In the insane asylum, this is my new home." 

How do we cope with loneliness? How do we build community? In a world where we feel like we don't fit in, how do we go about finding our people, our tribe?  And what do we do while we're searching?

In "Asylum," the debut single from young singer-songwriter Aubrey Riddle, Aubrey tackles these questions in a thoughtful, resonant, piano-accompanied reflection on the impact of isolation. In this episode, Emmeline sits down with Aubrey (live and in person!) to talk about walking away from toxic situations, giving yourself grace when you don't fit in, finding chosen family, and what comes next when we finally set good boundaries for ourselves. They also talk about theater and the healing power of horses!
