We had the good fortune of connecting with Kortynie Candy and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Kortynie, how has your background shaped the person you are today?
A Black girl from Cleveland,Ohio. I was born in a small city filled with big dreams. At a young age I realized where I’m from you don’t make it to 21, so while we’re young these are our years to live. As my growth begin to increase I had time to develop and expand my self love care for myself. Growing up I wrote books to express my thinking and emotions. I diary to get my message out . The woman I am today has grown to overcome many obstacles and tackles my goals and dreams one by one while still learning and networking.

Can you give our readers an introduction to your business? Maybe you can share a bit about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
I am a self published author who writes motivational books to express my positive thinking. I also have a clothing business called KHAMELEON THE BRAND where I release comfortable lounge clothes to wear for everyday use. My business is different from others because its very authentic, what you pay for is what you receive. I feel that people should be able to express themselves more through the clothing they wear and the books they read. Reading books develop more knowledge to the brain. I am proud to inform my readers that I self published my first two books alone and I’m willing to help others with theirs. To grow a good business takes time management, with building clientele and having a solid team. Life is all about learning lessons and finding new skills that’ll set you for your next venture. Challenges are only to show you that you can do the impossible. I would love to leave my mark when its my expiration date and when God calls me home . I’m here to inspire and impact others.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
I would like to shoutout to my younger self for developing such strong mindset with adapting to reality and realize life for what it truly is. In my first book KHAMELEON I discuss the importance of self love while expressing my everyday life. I’m always inspired to new ideas or new business proposals just to be able to learn things I’m unsure about .
