Sam Abrahart, Founder & CEO of The Mayfair Group (https://themayfairgroupllc.com/)
Sam set out to create a space where people could be real, vulnerable, & feel seen in their everyday human experience. Enter: The Mayfair Group - a global lifestyle brand founded out of Sam's guest bedroom in 2017, is now known for its empowering messages, feel-good apparel, & community-driven campaigns. During Sam's pivotal years in university, she faced her own mental health struggles, navigating anxiety & depression. Social media-which was supposed to bring people together-was making her feel more alone than ever. The Mayfair Group was started as a self-funded leap of faith built on one goal: to create a digital safe space where people could feel seen, & supported. And, in May 2022, The Mayfair Group launched the Mayfair World Fund, its own therapy fund to give access to free mental health resources & sessions & help shape a better world for the generations to come. Sam has been featured in Forbes twice (here & here), nominated by Forbes as one of the most promising new entrepreneurs in their Next 1000 List (here), featured in Elle Magazine (here), & honored by Creative Cultivate in their C&C 100 (here). The Mayfair Group has been featured in publications such as Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, British Vogue, Glamour, Marie Claire, Cosmopolitan & more. See The Mayfair Group's full press page here.
