In just a span of seven years, she managed to spread her name and designs all over Minnesota and even LA, winning multiple awards and participating in many fashion shows. She was even able to start her own brand known as Xenobian Moxis.

Coming into 2018, it was time for Vanessa, her husband, and two children, to try a new adventure and move to Los Angeles, CA. She decided to explore more options for career choice as well. She pursued being a publicist and began teaching herself how to succeed. With a lot of hard work, dedication, and patience she found a living in this career also. In the next five years, Vanessa plans on opening her own public relations company along with adding to her Xenobian Moxis brand line.

In a recent interview Vanessa said, “Some of the challenges I faced along the way was judgement from others before they got to know me”. She continued, “Some advice I would give to younger entrepreneurs is to take that leap of faith and don’t allow anyone to talk you out of it”.

The American Dream whispers promises of opportunity, but for first-generation children, it can also carry a heavy weight of expectation. Natalie Massaro, the visionary behind Coco Glow, knows this firsthand. “There was an unspoken pressure to succeed,” Natalie explains. “Failure wasn’t an option.” This fueled a relentless work ethic in her – juggling two jobs while in school, a constant drive to excel that burned brightly within her.

This drive initially led the SheEO down a traditional path. But a different passion, simmering beneath the surface, tugged at her – a love for beauty and skincare. Stemming from her own experiences navigating body image as a woman with curves in a world often fixated on a single standard of beauty, Natalie knew there was a different narrative to be told.

It was a leap of faith, fueled by unwavering determination, which led Natalie to trade in the traditional path for entrepreneurship. in 2019, Coco Glow was born out of her Jersey Shore apartment. Today she has a staff of talented contour artists and is currently expanding into a second location. The recent introduction of teeth whitening hints at a future where Coco Glow offers a complete canvas for radiant beauty.

“Always find your why,” is Natalie’s mantra. Inspired by her parents’ unwavering work ethic, a constant reminder that “no one can fail if you are consistently showing up every day,” Natalie poured her heart and soul into Coco Glow. Entrepreneurship, it seems, runs in her blood. Her father’s success was a testament to the power of hard work and dedication, values that now echo in Coco Glow’s leadership. Her commitment to exceptional service is a direct reflection of the “show up every day” mindset.

A testament to the American Dream – reimagined for a new generation. It’s about defying expectations, forging your own path, and leaving your mark. It’s about finding your “why” and turning it into something beautiful, one sun-kissed client at a time. And witnessing the boost of confidence in each client who walks out the door is its own reward.

“Every client is understood, their wants and needs are adjusted to – your spray tan is the easiest part of your day” – perfectly represents her client-centric approach.
