We had the good fortune of connecting with Colsie Searcy and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Colsie, what is the most important factor behind your success?
The factors behind all success for me is desire. There are a multitude of factors behind my success, but desire to build a life I can be proud of and that fuels my passions is my driving force. When I think of success I think of it on a scale of happiness. When we do the things in life that continuously lead to new doors opening it’s a sign that we are on the right path to our highest desires. There is always trial and error in the journey to success, due to the fact that we are continually growing and expanding and also having the notion that we don’t know what we don’t know until we do it.

What should our readers know about your business?
In both businesses that I run I have learned that people buy from people they like and relate to. I have shaped my life around showing up fully as myself and by doing so I attract clients who I can work well with and them with me. I work through referrals and word of mouth and I wouldn’t have it any other way. I take great pride in being relational and not transactional. My job is to ensure my people are taken care of and when they walk away feeling seen and heard they tell their people and the beautiful cycle continues. It’s exhilarating to have done the work on my mindset, emotional intelligence, and impact to the point of truly being able to say I love what I do and being compensated as an exchange of my energy and not simply a tangible product.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
We would start off in Colorado Springs at one of our incredible breakfast spots such as Garden of the Gods Cafe for great food and mimosas. We then would go exploring. There is so much to see in this beautiful state of ours such as exploring our mountain ranges with hiking, beautiful drives, and great winter sports such as skiing. There’s no way I’d let them leave without a trip up to Red Rocks to catch an incredible concert and a trip out to one of our beautiful resort hot springs. Weather permitting we would spend a day out on the lake with our paddleboards and spend our evenings around a fire singing and making memories to last a lifetime.

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
My story is full of incredible humans and motivators who have made a huge impact on my life. I want to thank every coach I’ve selected to work with over the years whether that be one on one or through their inspiring content. They have all helped to shape my mind to see life outside of the box and to think of my work as a journey I get to embark on rather than spinning the wheels trying to fit into what society says is required of me.
