My Journey:

 

Empowering Growth, Confidence, and Creative Entrepreneurship

Dear Friends,

​

My name is Karen Cayer, and my story is one of transformation, resilience, and a deep commitment to helping others realize their potential. With decades of experience in mental health, entrepreneurship, and leadership, I have dedicated my life to guiding individuals and businesses on their journey to growth and success.

​

In my early career as a Clinical Director and therapist, I had the privilege of helping individuals heal from trauma and reclaim their lives. This experience gave me a profound understanding of the challenges many face and equipped me with the tools to offer holistic, compassionate care. I combined cognitive and somatic therapies to create a nurturing holistic environment where healing could take place.

​

After years in the mental health field, I took a bold leap into the business world by founding, building, and successfully selling an Internet Service Provider in Vermont. This journey taught me the intricacies of business development, technology, and strategic growth, and it ignited my passion for entrepreneurship.

​

Today, I bring all of these experiences together as a coach, consultant, author, and entrepreneur. I co-authored Stop Suffering, Start Healing, a holistic resource for healing anxiety, depression, and trauma, alongside Robin Woolley LCSW. Together, we crafted this resource to guide people through their healing journeys using both cognitive and somatic tools.

​

In addition, I empower women and creatives to discover their strength and unlock their potential. Through my Fearless Confidence program, I help women lead bold lives and embrace their unique gifts.

 

With Cayer’s Artwear, I collaborate with my sister Kathy to turn her stunning nature-inspired art into wearable masterpieces, blending creativity with business.

​

At the heart of my mission is a simple but profound belief: everyone has the potential for greatness. With the right guidance and tools, that potential can be unlocked and nurtured.

 

We aim to help entrepreneurs build thriving businesses and support individuals in embracing their personal power.

​

Our journey at Cayer Group LLC has recently expanded in a way that fills me with both pride and excitement. I am thrilled to introduce my son, Chef Nathaniel “Chef Nate” Cayer Myette, as our Culinary Director. Chef Nate’s experience brings an extraordinary dimension to our work, combining culinary excellence with a dedication to leadership and care. His journey began at the renowned New England Culinary Institute, and he has since built an impressive career leading high-volume kitchens and crafting innovative culinary programs.

​

Chef Nate’s approach isn’t just about great food—it’s about creating a workplace culture where employees feel supported and empowered to grow. Whether designing menus, leading staff, or managing large-scale culinary operations, he brings the same dedication to excellence that has defined our family’s approach to life and work.

 

Currently, as the Executive Chef at Sorry Charlies in Savannah, GA, he manages a multifaceted culinary program that includes a banquet catering team, a rooftop bar, and a Tiki Bar. His culinary vision blends sophistication with approachable fare, delighting both locals and visitors alike.

​

Together, at Cayer Group LLC, we are driven by a shared mission: to help people and businesses thrive. Whether through business consulting, culinary innovation, coaching, or creative ventures, we believe in turning challenges into opportunities and supporting individuals in living bold, fulfilling lives.

​

Our work isn’t just about solving problems—it’s about fostering growth, creativity, and resilience. With a heart for service and a mind for strategy, we are committed to walking alongside our clients as they build something extraordinary.

​

Thank you for being part of our journey. We look forward to what we can achieve together.

 

With love and gratitude,


Karen Cayer

​

Similar to the philosophical question of a tree falling in the forest, personal and professional growth happens whether observed or not.

 

Having a coach is akin to inviting someone into that forest, someone who not only witnesses your journey but enhances it by providing guidance, support, and a unique perspective, making your growth more intentional and impactful.
