For the last 3 years I’ve worked at MrBeast Industries. I had spent over a decade studying this industry, understanding it from the inside out. I was genuinely, deeply proud to get the opportunity to work alongside some of the best in the industry. I was one of the few women in the C-Suite and often the only woman in the room. When I gave an idea, I would be called dumb — only to sit there and watch a man say the exact same thing ninety seconds later and get a round of applause. I was told to shut up in front of my entire team. Yelling at your team at MrBeast meant at you were a strong leader. A woman speaking up meant she was a problem and that proved to be true after having all my complaints completely dismissed and put under the rug. After 3 years at MrBeast Industries, I stepped into motherhood. Something that was always a dream of mine. And what was supposed to be a magical and happy time, immediately got replaced with fear the moment I saw the positive test. “Will I still have a job? Will I still be able to provide for my family?” That’s when I learned and realized not only myself, but millions of women go through the exact same fear during what, was supposed to be the happiest and most importantly protected moment of their lives. My daughter just turned one. And when I look back to those first few months, and realize I lost the bonding time with my baby, I lost her firsts. Her first smile, her first giggle. It hurts me in more ways that I could even express. Those moments don’t wait for you. They happen, and then they’re gone. I did not get the chance to heal both physically and mentally. It was all taken away from me. I’ll never be able to get that back. Today I’m taking legal action. For all women who have faced fear in the workplace, who were made to believe that they need to choose between their babies or their careers. For every woman that has been silenced. They tried to silence me enough, but enough is enough. I’ll let the legal process speak for itself. (and I DO have RECEIPTS for EVERYTHING🙏🏻)
