Emily Heintz

I’m Emily Heintz, founder of Sèchey — a lifestyle brand redefining how people unwind, socialize, and “have a drink.”

What started as a side hustle in the Southeast has grown into a category-defining business spanning non-alcoholic, functional, and hemp-derived beverages — built around the shift toward more intentional, mood-driven consumption.

Before this, I spent 25 years in luxury retail and enterprise sales solutions for global retailers. Today, I write and speak about alternative beverages, the sober-curious movement, and what it takes to build as a female founder at the forefront of a rapidly evolving category.
