wander, grow, thrive, in the forest…
When you enter The Forest you’ll find space to explore a new path on your business journey. You won’t spend hours in front of your computer on this program, instead you’ll be outdoors finding fresh inspiration for your brand.

And then you’ll work on whatever needs creating, shifting or improving around your brand that feels aligned with your big business dreams.
By the end of The Forest, you’ll develop a brand you feel deeply connected to and proud to share with the world.

“I feel connected to my business now.”
I have a much better sense of who I am in business now. Charlotte is a great teacher who puts things across really clearly and with warmth. It helped me focus my energy into really connecting with my brand which was vague and scattered. It made me think about what was important to me and what my unique gifts were
Gill, Founder of Outdoor therapy and mindfulness practice Manchester Mind Matters
“Gave me the courage to visualise my unique brand vision and I’ve had my best business year yet!”
The Forest actually helped me focus in on what I do, why I do it and who I do it for. Not only that it helped give me the courage to in essence make a stand about who I serve and who I don’t.
She is so personable in her delivery that I almost felt like she was right there holding my hand as I went through The Forest.”
Susan, Founder ‘Susan Soaps’ a natural soap brand in the US
Charlotte has a way of getting to the ‘heart’ of your business and helping you to distill it in a way that is authentic to align passion with purpose.

From big-brand agency designer to ethical business founder
Hello, I’m Charlotte! The Founder of Creative Wilderness and your guide for The Forest.
I know how hard it can be to build a business that feels in alignment with your own values. I know you may be looking for a way to do things differently – quietly and bravely.
Over my 5+ years of running a business I’ve experienced burnout months, overwhelm, comparison, doubt. But through my journey I saw that I could tread my own path and I discovered how to create a brand experience that draws people to me organically.
I bring to The Forest:
- Experience building my own and other purpose-driven successful brands, with a deep understanding of how branding can empower businesses to grow authentically
- Inspiration for different ways of doing business – ways that are kind to ourselves, people and planet whilst still making a healthy income to support a fulfilling life
- An ability to cut through the noise, and practices to think bravely and intuitively to overcome your business problems (preferably out in nature)
- A highly accredited Level 2 Nature Connection Qualification & PGCE
When I’m not growing brands, you’ll find me in nature – hiking, wild swimming, and exploring in my VW T4 campervan ‘Autumn’. It’s here that some of my best ideas come to find me, out exploring the wilderness and I bet yours are out in your favorite kind of wilderness, too.

You can either record a voice/video message or send over an email with anything you’d like me help with, or something you’d like me to review and help you improve. I’ll then record my video guidance back for you to watch in your own time.
You could ask me to review a website page, ask advice on how to improve anything to do with your brand, talk about something you are struggling with and ofcourse anything else business and brand related! This is a great way to get afffordable access to my personalised branding support and business expertise.

What type of business owner is this program for?
What results can you guarantee?
I’m not a fan of the ‘take my course and make XXX amount’ approach as it is often fuelled by lies and hard sells! Ultimately your business success is mostly down to you, however with the right support and guidance I can help you to thrive, learn and improve in a way that feels aligned.
What happens after the program ends?
You’ll be able to join in The Forest again in the future as it will be organic each time depending on where you are and what you want to work through. You can also book a Design Day, Brand Wisdom Session or work with me on your brand if you feel you’d like continued support when The Forest finishes.
