Candle company
Schacher and her husband founded the candle company Biren & Co. It began when she and her husband, Mark, could not find the type of candle that they wanted for their wedding, so they made candles themselves in their kitchen.
Originally called Wick'ed Candles, they rebranded with the help of their new partner, Marcus Lemonis, on CNBC's The Profit.
Johnny Manziel hoax
In 2014, rumors that Schacher filed a sexual harassment lawsuit against former Cleveland Browns quarterback Johnny Manziel were later reported to be a hoax by convict and "serial filer" Jonathan Lee Riches. [17] [18]
