Heart, Hustle & Western Roots: Building Rodeo Quincy with Founder, Quincy Eldridge

This week on Coffee Monday, we’re diving into the heart behind Rodeo Quincy, and the family, values, and relationships that built it. Founded by Quincy Eldridge, Rodeo Quincy is more than a western-inspired brand, it’s a reflection of her roots. Raised around the sport of rodeo, Quincy shares how that environment shaped her perspective, while the confidence instilled in her by her mom gave her the foundation to fully step into who she is and build something of her own. From creating deep, genuine relationships with her buyers to growing a brand while building a family at the same time, Quincy opens up about what it really looks like to lead with heart. It’s a conversation about staying grounded in who you are, trusting your voice, and creating something that people can truly connect to.
