In Create Shift S2, Ep6 I talk to Charlotte Holroyd who runs Creative Wilderness, an ethical branding and design agency. Charlotte talks about her journey from ‘normal job’ to being self-employed, and how this shift has helped her to live a life more aligned with her values. We discuss the impacts a standard office environment can have on our health and wellbeing, and why we feel this needs to change. Charlotte shares her story of how yoga has played a huge role in supporting her to live and work more intuitively, and create some self-care rituals. This episode is a great listen for anyone who’s interested in connecting more to their intuition in their work and life, and creating some routines to support their wellbeing.
Find out more about Charlotte and the work she does at creativewilderness.co.uk and follow her on Instagram at @creativewilderness.
