Simply Marisa

Mar 27, 2024 | The Success Code

I’m passionate about us finding a way to be our authentic selves and finding peace within that!

Marisa talks about her passions!

I am a multi-passionate entrepreneur, International best-selling author, blogger, influencer, and online business expert. More importantly, I’m a wife and a mother.

As a married/working mom (as a woman) I know what it is to juggle everything that is “life”, and how easily the overwhelm sets in. I am dedicated to helping other women overcome this overwhelm by sharing simple beauty tips, style inspiration, but really it’s so much more.

As we navigate the complexities of life, I want to provide an environment where women can share experiences, support each other, and find moments of joy. I believe in the power of authentic connections, and my goal is to create an online community that encourages women to feel confident in being themselves and comfortable in their own providing a space where they feel connected, included,
and seen.

We are all such multifaceted creatures, I’m curious about life, people, the world….
But I’m passionate too! I’m passionate about finding a way to live our best lives, I’m passionate about the people in my life, meeting new people, making friends, I’m passionate about traveling, reading great books and having new adventures!

But mostly I’m passionate about us finding a way to be our authentic selves and finding peace within that!

Marisa’s Leadership Philosophy

For me, I feel the best leaders coach from behind or below. The best way to coach people is for them to be supported and encouraged along the way. You should have a say and ownership in your own journey. Yes we need to learn from others but let them show you how to be a better version of yourself, not a copy of someone else.

A true leader helps others to shine on their own!

Marisa Griffin – The Business

This all started as a hobby and quickly turned into a passion project which turned into an online business!!

I started with my online beauty business and started to grow my online presence from there sharing simple style tips and shopping finds, now I work with several different brands and have my own storefront on Amazon!

But the real highlight for me is collaborating with small/local businesses! It’s so fun to get know other
businesswomen and the story behind their business and I love seeing the sisterhood of women helping
women!

The Story Behind The Business

As I said earlier, at first it was just a way to share beauty, style, and shopping finds with my girlfriends as we were navigating life coming out of the pandemic. I soon realized that this fun hobby of mine could be a fun business! As my online presence began to grow I realized this is such a great way to connect with women from all over!

I still work a full time traditional 9-5 job, which by the way ~ is amazing. I’m so blessed to love my job and the wonderful humans I work with but as I started to started to share more and more online and started to grow – I realized how much I loved the online space and that was where I wanted to be! I started to seriously think about the reality of what I want my future to look like and I realized I wanted to
turn my hobbies into streams of income so I decided to just go for it!

Impacting Lives

It’s amazing when you pour your heart into something you love what you get back is 10 times what you thought you’d get out of it!! I have met the most amazing women, made wonderful friends and even found a way to be happy and confident in my own skin!

That’s what I want for others! I hope that when women come across any of my content either through my blog, my social pages, in my beauty group or through my VIP Insider Emails – that they see someone who is imperfect yet her authentic self! You’ll see the real me and I hope that inspires you to be the real you!!

It took me SO long to get there and of course I still struggle with self confidence but I’m learning to live my life for me, to be happy in my own skin and be the person I am. I’m girly, a little nerdy, I’m classic and simple yet I love new adventures – we can be so many different things and so many times we put ourselves in little boxes to appease others or be what we think others need us to be – when in reality we just need to be ourselves and stop caring what other people think! Once you let go and it is so liberating! Once you let go, you actually start to really live.

The Benefits of Marisa’s Work

While I truly want others to feel confident in their skin – I can also help with tools for that! I can show you
simple beauty and skincare tips, simple style inspo and I’m always searching for great online deals! We all get busy and I want to help women who are overwhelmed and just need a little help or quick tip here and there. So many times we overcomplicate things for ourselves! Let me help you keep it simple so you can feel like the best version of yourself without sacrificing a ton of time and effort!!

I also have fun sharing positive quotes, motivating posts, and relatable memes.
I want you to feel seen and like you belong. When you come across my content and I share pieces of
me and my life with you, I want it to feel like you’re part of a community like you’re catching up with a
friend!

From challenges to wins

What is the biggest challenge you faced in your business?

Time and patience!! When you’ve realized what your dream is, you want to live it starting now!! But my gosh things take time, you have to make some mistakes along the way, learn a lot of lessons and put the work in!

I’m a working mom and it’s important for me to still be present for my family and to honor the commitments of my full time job. It’s hard to balance it all when you want to give 110% to everything in front of you!

What are you most proud of regarding your business?

I’m still learning and growing and realizing that things matter take time!! Remember that saying, “slow and steady wins the race” well it really hits home for me! It’s not nearly as easy as it looks on the outside but I’m so proud of the work that I have put in and continue to put in! I do my best to show up for myself and to stay consistent!!

I started with nothing and growth has ebbs and flows but more than anything I’m so proud of the online community I’m building! Connecting and engaging with my followers means the world to me!!

Just by being myself and putting myself out there has landed me on TV, in commercials, on an international best selling author list, podcasts, this magazine and more with new opportunities and experiences coming my way!
