After a short Christmas break, Anxious Ambition is back, as Justin sits down with Josh Pertler, actor, model, and musician. Justin and Josh go all the way back to their freshman year of high school. He began modeling and acting at a very young age, and with the help of his mom, he broke into the business around the age of 11. After high school, he made his way out to Los Angeles to pursue his dream.

He began experiencing anxiety as he began waiting to hear about parts and modeling jobs. He began struggling with drugs and alcohol as a way to cope with feelings of loneliness and hopelessness. After going back and forth between Illinois and Los Angeles, he finally got a handle on his addiction and is still pursuing acting and working on his music!

You can find him on Instagram @pertpertla, on Spotify under the name “Pertla,” and at his website joshpertler.com
