She expressed her commitment to the company and her friendship with Jason Oppenheim, stating that her decision to leave the show was driven by a desire for more women empowerment in the series. Mary, along with Emma Hernan and Sandra Vergara, chose to exit the Netflix reality show, with Mary citing concerns about the office dynamic and toxicity levels as reasons for her departure.
