No script. No rules. Just raw, honest, and often ridiculous conversations about life, loss, healing, and hope. These are the messy, magical moments that make life worth showing up for, even when it’s hard.

“Hi it’s GloZell… Is you good? Is you okay? Because I wanted to know!” This is the famed intro from YouTube creator and cultural phenomenon, GloZell Green. In 2003, GloZell moved to Los Angeles to chase a career in comedy and acting… but, like many before her, found it harder to break into than she anticipated. Not one to be dismayed, she decided she’d go after her dream in every way possible, including showing up at the Tonight Show and vlogging from the line (for over 600 consecutive days!), and practicing her comedy craft on video… videos she’d post to a little known “brand new” site called YouTube. What happened next… no one could have predicted. GloZell’s videos went viral in a way never before seen… leading her to places beyond her wildest dreams. Jay Leno may not have noticed her in that line at the Tonight Show… but other’s did. Including: then President Barack Obama. Tune in today for an incredible story of grit and determination… a masterclass in learning hard lessons around self-love… and a tale about the magic of perseverance and a positive attitude.

GloZell Green, was once one of YouTube’s biggest stars, with up to 90 million collective views, but says she went broke after YouTube suddenly changed it's algorithm - leading to far fewer views and far fewer dollars. In this open and frank discussion, Glozell reveals how the rug was pulled from under her and she fell victim of her own mistakes; not budgeting her money and having no financial plans. Today, Glozell is trying to help other women in her position of transition. She's showing up and blowing up on her brand new Glozell Show, where she's totally transparent about her life, financial challenges, and her new reinvention plan. @millionstoriesmedia @theglozellshow #TheGlozellShow Hey!

She built a loyal audience and a tremendous presence on the platform to the point where she was the face of YouTube. The woman who made “My Push Up Bra Will Help Me Get My Man” and “The Cinnamon Challenge ... by GloZell and her Big Behind Earrings” was sitting directly across from President Obama for an exclusive interview. As GloZell made money, she wasn’t afraid to spend it -- but that cashflow didn’t last forever. The algorithm changed and crushed her channel. Millions of views per video turned into tens of thousands, and times got tough… fast. She’s entered The Create Unknown to tell us exactly what that rise, fall, and re-birth was like (and how you can avoid it). We open up the episode by pulling back the curtain on what it was like to have it all. We wanted to know what the most outlandish, lavish purchase she made at the peak of her career was -- and her answer would’ve lived in a jar in an 18th century doctor’s office. She tells us about all sorts of bad decisions and how her peers only fueled the madness. After that we talk about the reason it all went south: the algorithm change. The system went from favoring short, easily digestible, viral content to supporting longer, ten minute videos almost exclusively. This hit many of YouTube’s original creators like a truck, causing so many like GloZell to fall to the wayside. She tells us what she did after she hit the bottom, what her social life was like after the money started to run out, what she would’ve done differently if she had another shot at it all, and how exactly she’s adapted to reinvigorate her career. Finally, we get into some questions from our patrons who tuned in LIVE to see GloZell in action. They want to know what puts a smile on her face, her feelings toward work on projects like Escape the Night, the difference between making a YouTube video and working in old school media, and just how much money it would take for her to spend the next 4300 years as a series of ducks. And Baby Gang Jeff’s question about hot sauce took the episode in a direction we *really* didn’t expect.
