Every so often, you meet a woman who embodies both heart and strategy—the perfect blend of encouragement and practical wisdom. For us at The mUse Magazine, that woman is Carlyn Bushman. Carlyn didn’t start out as a business consultant. In fact, her journey began in the product world, selling handbags she designed herself. But what stood out wasn’t the bags—it was the way Carlyn leaned in to ask her customers about their dreams, their businesses, and what success looked like for them. That natural curiosity and genuine care sparked the pivot that would change everything: the launch of Carlyn Bushman Consulting, a business dedicated to helping women entrepreneurs scale, grow, and thrive. Today, Carlyn is more than just a consultant. She’s an Entrepreneur Educator, passionate about financial literacy, technology, and making sure women have the tools to build sustainable businesses. And she’s not afraid to get real about the challenges of time, balance, and growth—especially when it comes to learning how to harness AI for efficiency and impact. It’s no surprise that Carlyn graces the Fall 2025 cover of The mUse Magazine. Her story is one of grit, pivoting with purpose, and choosing people over sales every single time. But beyond the professional, Carlyn is also a woman you want in your corner—a mentor, a cheerleader, and, quite possibly, a lifelong friend. In our exclusive cover story, you’ll discover: The surprising way her first business led her to consulting. The one piece of advice that completely shifted how she leads. Why she believes AI is one of the most powerful tools women can embrace today. And the gift she treasures most (spoiler: it’s not what you’d expect!). If you’re a woman entrepreneur searching for clarity, confidence, and a path forward, Carlyn’s story is one you’ll want to dive into. Grab your copy of The mUse Magazine Fall issue and get inspired by Carlyn’s journey—you may just find the spark you’ve been waiting for.
