This week on the Simply Authentic Podcast: What would it take for you to walk away from a thriving business, close family ties, and everything familiar—all in pursuit of a dream?

In this episode, we sit down with Stacey Bruce, a REALTOR® and appraiser who left behind a successful real estate career in Springfield, Missouri, to start fresh in Florida. With no local connections or clients, Stacey made the bold move to chase a life without regrets—honoring a dream her mother never got the chance to fulfill.

We talk candidly about what it’s like to start over in a new market, the challenges of learning a different real estate and appraisal system, and how short-term rentals like VRBO play a role in Florida’s market landscape. Stacey shares the fears she had to overcome, the lessons she's learned, and why she’s grateful she chose to bet on herself.

Whether you're considering a big move or simply need a dose of inspiration, Stacey's story is a reminder that it’s never too late to follow your dreams.
