Sometimes in life you come to a point and say you've had enough as the saying goes "it was the straw that broke the camels back" if you are fed up of your voice not being heard in boardrooms, not allowed to meet with your team , only option is to go publicly and I don't think any of us would done it differantly if we walked in MC's shoes. Yes she had to look for investors, don't we watch the likes of dragons den and seeing individuals doing the same. She's no differant. All I can say is tg she went on her own steam with her makeup brand and has full control of what is happening. Cocoa B is her baby and not one of us would like to be treated same way if ye thought long and hard about it
- Notice
I would be a bitch as well if company I had worked for and build up was pushing her out

Sue is pumping out any old shite and I don't believe for one second she has much input to any of it. She's just a face to help sell the products. She said the other day she wished she could leave social media, which makes me think she's contractually obliged to stay and promote stuff. You can tell Marissa genuinely puts effort into her products.
Do you have proof of what you are saying or are you just being mean for the sake of it.
Like her or not she was very distressed.

Can not believe she is turning 40 . Genuinely thought she was about 45/46
I really don't understand these press trips. Disney does not need adverts like this. Would the money she gets and the cost not be better spent to help families put food in their children's mouths. Not spent on kids who's mummy and daddy can spend 50k plus on their garden just because.... its all a bit ick really... Marissa know it too... hence why she hasn't spoken once.

Will Someone please take marissa's phone away from her. I actually enjoy most of her content but jeeeeeeeesus the cringe reels. Mortified for her
they are a bunch of idiots! Use code language!!Felt very sorry for her watching her stories. They seem very nasty to deal with. I wonder are they the same with So Sue and would that be why Sue doesn’t put much effort into promoting her stuff online anymore? She seems dead behind the eyes every time she has to announce another launch or product

Last year I watched a girl on tick tok do a story time where she posted a video about Marissas hubby coming into the cafe she worked at and punching the owner because she was having an affair with him. I don't think she has anything to do with ccb but I think she must have a contract that they can use her name or something.
100%. And if it’s a bad business deal, then it’s just business, not bullying. This ‘poor me’ stuff without context just gives women a bad name.

It does seem to be one of these unwinnable situations and I'm not sure why.
Options were to post about it (and potentially screw it up like 90% of personalities have done over the last few days) or not post about it (and be ridiculed for not doing so).
You can be a champion of women in business etc and not feel like you have the right words or can put the right sentiment together - and if there was any hint of insincerity about it guaranteed she'd be torn for that one too.
Rightly or wrongly I know of many who will not publicly comment on topical issues/things in the news/ social issues because they feel its not their place or a misstep could be potentially incredibly damaging. I personally don't hate that approach either.
It's just strange IMO that by NOT sharing a post it's reason for people to be annoyed too. She would hardly come out with anything other than what's already been said.

who is the sister in law ?
I worked in the distributors until a few months ago, now I work in the pharmacy trade, none of marissa's family work in the distributors for Coco brown.
the distributors directors wife did work for a while in the Coco brown office but that was a shitshow and embarrassing when dealing with large customers.
I left due to the general atmosphere in the building, very negative and stressful, lots of staff come and go very quickly. It is not a nice place to work.
look at the Formar brand that they distribute , so many different managing directors in a very short period of time. Sosu office was the same with a constant stream of people joining and then leaving.
same as in thegeneral office - 3 of the longest serving women staff have let in the past 6 to 8 months or so
I think they have a problem working with women which is ironic when they rely on women to buy their products

I genuinely thought she was older than me and I'm 42.
