Josh Piterman: Behind the Mask: Identity, Masculinity and Finding Your True Self

Literature, Psychology, Relationships, Self-Help, Society & Culture

From The Phantom of the Opera to Les Misérables, Josh Piterman is known for commanding the stage, but his new book Behind the Mask takes us somewhere far more personal. In this revealing conversation on JOY Drive, Josh opens up about perfection, masculinity, stillness and the masks we all wear. Part memoir, part philosophy and part self-help, this chat is honest, grounded and sometimes surprisingly funny. We talk about spiritual growth, emotional expression and what it means to live with meaning beyond the spotlight.

Guest: Josh Piterman is a singer, actor, podcaster, speaker and author of Behind the Mask
