Think Like A Forest:
Regenerative Leadership & Business Programme
In 2022, I partnered with Sarah Spencer (Think Like A Tree) to launch Think Like A Forest—a program for businesses seeking positive change beyond surface-level sustainability.
We saw business owners and leaders feeling lost, wanting to move past extractive "business as usual" toward something deeper and healthier for organisations, people, and the planet.
Our pilot brought together fifteen businesses eager to embrace a new paradigm. The response was so strong that in October 2022, we launched our first 'Fundamentals' programme online, welcoming everyone from solopreneurs to global teams.
When I started my coaching business in 2017, I committed to practices that minimise harm on the planet or its people. Nature sustains my mind, body, and business—it's our life source, not a commodity.
Many of you feel the same and want to make a difference. That's why I now collaborate with change-makers creating a better future.
The businesses in Think Like A Forest value a thriving, nature-abundant world and are taking action now. We're turning hope into reality.
Shifting how you do business takes courage. It's messy, complicated, and can feel lonely when you're going it alone.
The good news?
You don't have to. Sarah and I share regenerative principles and join you on this journey. Together, we can learn, unlearn, and regenerate business.
We've collaborate with you to create organisationally intuitive pathways for regenerative evolution. You'll gain access to down to earth support and facilitation, a whole 'forest' of resources and our two guiding frameworks. Six Systems Dimensions and Twelve Strands (inspired by Nature and Living Systems) to help you make sense and create impact.
Think Like A Forest
2026 and beyond
Now in 2026 our offering has evolved more deeply, working with individual organisations, teams or partnership collectives. To help you through this immersive, emergent and explorative programme we'll work with you for around 6-12 months. Supporting knowledge, embodiment, creating change and impact. We work in a number of ways and after an initial conversation we'll scope out a regenerative approach suitable to your needs. This might include one or both of us, with some larger project bringing in external collaborators to offer you the expertise to help transform and evolve regeneratively.
Experience Days
In person days (1-2) for your team in the woodland to explore the basics of regenerative business principles
Fundamentals
Exploring the programme and materials together as a team online, in Nature or as a hybrid model.
Typically over 6-12 months.
With access to all our fundamentals materials and learning resources and videos. This approach is best described as combining coaching, mentoring, facilitation and consultancy, woven into one co-guided experience with ourselves and the Think Like A Forest approach alongside you as you explore.
Adventure
For 2026 adventures are designed together and combine deep immersive regenerative retreats in Nature for your team or organisation with follow sessions online typically over 6-12 months to support the regenerative evolution.
This can include additional 1.1 sessions for leaders or specific staff roles to help the journey. Alongside the Think Like A Forest Fundamentals Programme and the option for Experience Days
