Today we're talking with someone who has truly built her life with intention, grit, and love. Stephanie Simoes, along with her husband Paul, are the founders of New Heights Homestead in West Virginia, where they're raising their five children and creating the life they've been dreaming of for years. Stephanie's journey hasn't been without challenges. Along the way, her oldest son was diagnosed with PANDAS (Pediatric Autoimmune Neuropsychiatric Disorders Associated with Streptococcal Infections) — a condition that's often misunderstood and difficult to diagnose. That pivotal moment inspired her family to fully embrace self-sufficiency, nutrition, and intentional living. In this episode, we dive into: The inspiration behind The Homestead and what it takes to follow such a big dream How Stephanie navigated her son's diagnosis and reimagined her family's health What it was like to be featured on Homestead Rescue The lessons she's learned about resilience, resourcefulness, and living in alignment with your values Whether you're dreaming of a lifestyle change or simply looking for inspiration to take one small step toward intentional living, this conversation will remind you of the power of perseverance and heart.
