Dealing with the world of peer pressure and popularity and all that stuff, it's like: no, I'm just going to be myself and I'm going to help others find and discover who that is for them, what that is for them, because it's not what everyone thinks you should be.
What happens when the spotlight dims, and the pressures of show business collide with personal mental health struggles? In this episode of 'Choose Your Struggle', host Jay Shifman sits down with entertainers Alissa Musto and Ainsley Ross to discuss just that.
