Feb 20, 2026

Cassie Iliff,  Au.D.

At Hearing Consultants of Colorado Springs, we are proud to be rooted in our local community – a community made up of amazing independent businesses. Their diversity is what makes living here so wonderful. We are proud to be part of a thriving community, filled with exceptional small businesses, which make Colorado Springs such a special place. 

As a locally owned business ourselves, we know how much time, effort, and creativity go into making a vision a reality. That’s why we are proud to support our independent business neighbors whenever and however we can.  

Our community is fortunate to have a wide range of independent businesses on its doorstep. From family-owned restaurants to unique shops and services, there are plenty of local spots that make our community special and feel like home.  

We love hearing from our patients, so we asked you to share your favorite local businesses. We wanted to celebrate the ways these places make our community special, and three stood out from your feedback. 

Our team enjoyed paying them a visit and letting them know just how much they are appreciated. We are delighted to share them with you! 

Flourish Boutiques 

Whether you are looking to treat yourself or someone special, Flourish Boutiques has you covered. Inspired by European markets, you can browse through numerous stalls featuring men’s and ladies’ fashion, jewelry and accessories, home goods, gourmet foods, and so much more until your heart’s content. There’s something to appeal to every taste, and you’ll struggle to leave empty-handed.  

Becky, our patient who nominated Flourish Boutiques, enjoys shopping there and highly recommends a visit. “They are new, very friendly, and have an awesome assortment of gifts and products,” she shares. “It is fun to shop here.” 

The Living Room 

It doesn’t matter if you have a green thumb or are a plant novice. At The Living Room, you’ll discover a warm and welcoming environment where you can shop for the perfect plant for your space. You’ll find many of your favorite plants here along with plenty of new ones, making this shopping trip an adventure at the same time.  

This locally owned store isn’t only known for its wide selection of plants. The friendly staff aims to make your visit a pleasant one.  

Focused on customer satisfaction, they will make every effort to help you choose the right plant and offer care advice so it will continue to blossom and thrive. Their passion for plants makes every transaction feel personal and enjoyable.  

Our patient Linda nominated this local business and says, “Everyone who you encounter at the store, including and especially the owner, is helpful and kind, making you feel welcome without hovering over you. The store feels alive and happy every visit. They will special-order any plant you would like to get.” 

She especially appreciates their expert advice. “They will also provide instructions on how to care for any plant you get and be honest if a plant is more challenging to care for. I always feel uplifted every time I go!” 

A Flower Girl’s Dream 

No matter the holiday or occasion, A Flower Girl’s Dream arranges stunning floral bouquets that leave lasting impressions. Creativity is at the heart of all their creations, with a range of vivid colors, textures, and seasonal flowers carefully combined to produce something special.  

Whether it’s a birthday, anniversary, or you just wish to brighten someone’s day, pride and care are put into each and every order. The team’s impeccable attention to detail and their commitment to providing excellent customer service make them a trusted local favorite.
