This week on the MOMager Podcast, we’re welcoming double besties—Malachi’s best friend, Kamri Peterson...and my bestie, her amazing mom Hilary! 💃✨
Kamri is an absolute powerhouse in the ballroom world—In 2024 she came in second place at Nationals! Since filming this podcast, she has moved up to compete in the under-19 category, and at just 16 years old she placed 3rd at Ballroom Nationals! 🤯 And she’s just getting started! With dreams of being a pro on Dancing with the Stars or going on tour, Kamri’s drive and talent are next level. Kam also takes us behind the scenes being a "junior pro" on DWTS, Jr in 2018!
In this episode, we dive into:
🔥 Kamri’s journey in the ballroom world & her biggest dreams
😂 A hilarious best friend game with Kamri & Malachi—do they really know each other?!
💛 The real talk on mom guilt—how Hilary balances traveling with Kam while raising 4 other kids (including TRIPLETS!)
🏡 Life in Utah, Kam’s love for California, and their wildly viral TikToks
But most of all, this episode is about friends who lift each other up—whether it’s Kamri and Malachi or Hilary and me. 💕 You don’t want to miss this one!
