Peet Montzingo: Growing Up Different, Embracing Purpose & Chasing Dreams 🎙️
Season 1
In this episode, we go deep with Peet Montzingo — content creator, musician, author, and storyteller — as he opens up about his extraordinary journey, his identity, and the vision that drives him today. Peet is perhaps best known for his YouTube and TikTok content centered around his family — including his mother Vicki and siblings, who are little people — where he is the only family member of average height. But there’s so much more behind the viral videos: • His upbringing in Seattle, his early dreams of entering entertainment, and how he navigated moving to L.A. with uncertain opportunities. • The emotional weight and empowerment behind being “different,” and how he learned to lean into that as his superpower. • How his music and acting roots (including touring with the boy band 5WEST) shaped his path. • The creation of his children’s book Little Imperfections: A Tall Tale of Growing Up Different, co-written with Rockwell Sands, blending stories and videos to inspire self-worth and empathy. • His venture into the paranormal and ghost-hunting, mental health, and other content themes that surprise and resonate. • The resilience behind doing this work — from faults, rejections, and “pauses” to creative reinvention. Whether you’ve followed Peet’s content for years or are just discovering his story, this episode reveals the man behind the screen: his heartbreaks, his purpose, his hopes, and how he sees the future.
