What It’s Really Like Being the Only Tall Person in a Family of Little People

In this episode of What It's Really Like, I sit down with Peet Montzingo to talk about growing up as the only average-height person in a family of little people, navigating family dynamics, and what it feels like to not quite fit into the world around you. Peet shares stories from his childhood, his experience auditioning for The X Factor, life on the road as a member of a boy band, living with ADHD, building a career as a creator, and the lessons he's learned about identity, confidence, and belonging.
