What does it take to lead a resilient business in a world that won’t stop shifting?
This week, strategist and consultant Carlyn Bushman joins me for a real, unfiltered conversation about what female founders are up against in 2025 and how to lead through the chaos with clarity, data, and confidence.
Carlyn shares her perspective on why too many women are letting external pressures like tariffs, tech disruptions, and economic uncertainty dictate the future of their businesses.
We explore how to separate emotion from strategy, why data should be your first stop when making decisions, and how to find opportunity in relationships you’ve been neglecting.
This conversation is part wake-up call, part tactical blueprint. If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed or reactive in your business, Carlyn’s insights will help you shift into a more grounded, intentional role as a founder and leader.
