Lizzie Velasquez was a medical mystery and a bullying victim. Now she's a confident, empowered motivational speaker and YouTube sensation who advises audiences as diverse as corporate executives and elementary school students on how to focus on your gifts and passions, create plans to overcome obstacles, and reach your goals. She's overcome more trials and challenges than most, but one question keeps her moving forward: Will I choose to be happy, or will I choose to give up?
In Choosing Happiness, Lizzie talks about some of these obstacles and how she's managed to choose happiness in spite of them. From fighting with friends and filling out college applications to bullying and living with the "unknown syndrome," Lizzie offers stories and advice on handling whatever life throws at you. In a world in which we constantly label each other and ourselves, Lizzie shows us how to be brave enough to be who we are no labels attached.
