“Inspiring, poignant and laugh-out-loud funny.”

“A witty, wise call-to-arms for the anxiety-ridden in a period when we’re more anxious than ever. A timely book for these end-of-times times.”

“The author not only chronicles how she faced her inner demons and won; she also offers a reminder that doing even the smallest thing to conquer fear ‘is enough to change a lot.’ A fresh, intelligent memoir.”

“Meh.”

“Inspiring from the first pages. Courtenay fearlessly lets us into her head; she didn’t clean up in there before company came over, and I am so glad. Her risk-taking adventures in career and love are more stirring to me than any daring physical feat.”

— People Magazine —

“Courtenay deftly executes one of the most difficult feats for a writer: she makes the smallest moments vivid, meaningful, and laugh-out-loud funny. You’ll be rooting for her the whole way, and she’ll surprise you at every turn with her fortitude, her sparkling feats of fearlessness preserved in riotous detail, and her joie de anxiety.”

“I loved this book so hard. Courtenay Hameister makes me feel thrilled to be alive-even though most things in life scare the crap out of me so much it’s hard for me to walk out of my own front door. Okay Fine Whatever is a brilliant testament to the fire of the spirit for misfits and scaredy pants everywhere. A soul triumph. A reason to live.”

“Courtenay Hameister wrote the following sentence and for this sentence alone she should be world famous: ‘Like the snowflake of the genital world, no two vaginas are ever alike.’ Her stories are honest, funny and touching. I love her work and so will you.”

“Courtenay Hameister’s frank, hilarious chronicle of facing her fears promises hope and laughs while staying real.”
