Is You Okay?

Is You Okay?

Summary

'Is you okay? Is you good? Cuz I want to know!'

Eager to entertain, dedicated to making people laugh, comedian and video superstar GloZell Green is game for any challenge, no matter how silly, gross, or absurd. As one of the earliest vloggers, her hilarious videos have propelled her from anonymity in Florida to stardom as one of our most beloved internet stars.

Is You Okay? speaks the truth about the elements of life we wrestle with every day – from love and relationships to empowerment and body image – as GloZell uses examples from own life and her unforgettable video challenges to explore each issue. Sharing formative stories and insights from her own life, she encourages young women to love their bodies, break free of their shells, and carve out their own identities. Most importantly, in this candid and hilarious memoir, GloZell shows that we’re all in this together. 'Everything isn’t just gonna be okay. It doesn’t just have to be good,' she reminds us. 'It can be great (even with a spoonful of pepper in your mouth).'
