We recently had the chance to connect with Schnyah Mack and have shared our conversation below.
Schnyah , really appreciate you sharing your stories and insights with us. The world would have so much more understanding and empathy if we all were a bit more open about our stories and how they have helped shaped our journey and worldview. Let’s jump in with a fun one: Are you walking a path—or wandering?
I am wandering and creating my own path to guide others.
Can you briefly introduce yourself and share what makes you or your brand unique?
My name is Schnyah Ahmee, and I am the founder of The Future Fund Brand and the Ahmee Candle Collection. My life’s mission is to help women gain the tools they need to live healthy, fulfilling lives. Through The Future Fund Brand, I provide services that help others plan, build, and scale their businesses, while Ahmee Candles offers a pathway to mental serenity and balance. I believe life is about finding harmony between financial growth and mental well-being and I’m here to help women achieve both.
Appreciate your sharing that. Let’s talk about your life, growing up and some of topics and learnings around that. Who saw you clearly before you could see yourself?
Recently, I’ve been fortunate to spend more time with my great-grandmother, an experience that has been both grounding and inspiring. One evening, as we said goodnight, she held my hand firmly and told me I would be the next Oprah. Her words reminded me of the many people in my life who saw my potential before I recognized it myself, those who encouraged, accepted, and believed in me. Their faith continues to fuel my drive each day, reminding me that I carry not only my own vision forward but also the hopes of the community that has always stood behind me.
If you could say one kind thing to your younger self, what would it be?
I am proud of you. Proud of the way you stayed true to who you are, while also having the courage to explore who you could become. Every step you’ve taken, even the uncertain ones, has been building the foundation for the woman you are today. Keep shining, keep trusting your journey, and never dim your light.
So a lot of these questions go deep, but if you are open to it, we’ve got a few more questions that we’d love to get your take on. Is the public version of you the real you?
Yes! The public version of me is the real me. Authenticity is at the core of everything I do. What I share with the world isn’t a performance, it’s an extension of who I truly am. Every service I offer and every product I create is designed with the community in mind. I see myself as your biggest supporter and a trusted resource, committed to building a space that spreads knowledge, fosters connection, and provides the tools we all need to flourish together.
Before we go, we’d love to hear your thoughts on some longer-run, legacy type questions. What are you doing today that won’t pay off for 7–10 years?
Right now, I’m investing in real estate. It’s a long-term strategy that won’t show its full return for 7 to 10 years, but I see it as one of the most effective ways to build generational wealth. Real estate is a finite resource; there will never be more land created, so securing property now allows me to leverage both time and appreciation. By anchoring my investments into assets that grow in value, I’m building a foundation that will not only benefit me in the future but also create lasting opportunities for my community.
