Sometimes the hardest seasons become the birthplace of our biggest dreams. In this episode, we sit down with Kimmie Ellis, co-founder of La Palmilla Texas Hotel, a luxury boutique hotel oasis — recently recognized by National Geographic as a Top 10 Texas family-friendly hotel.  Kimmie shares how she and her husband, Mitchell, walked through one of the most difficult chapters of their lives and turned that pain into purpose — a contagious dream that created a space where others could rest, reconnect, and rebuild.  This is more than a story about building a business; it’s about becoming the kind of person who can hold a dream when the path isn’t clear and invite others in — one breadcrumb, one brave step at a time. You’ll Hear: How a marriage struggle sparked the vision for La Palmilla The (surprising) steps, and merging of dreams, that turned an Airbnb idea into a luxury retreat What it looks like to build something with intention How they held onto a dream even when the path wasn’t clear If you’re sitting on a dream—or walking through a hard season—maybe today’s episode is your reminder that what looks like a obstacle might just be the beginning of your next great story.
