Azalea Health Services founders Kenny and Stacy Maggard have been featured in podcasts on senior mental health, building a mission-driven business as a married couple, and the stories shaping their work. Listen below.
Stacy and Kenny discuss why emotional and psychological well-being matters just as much as physical health as we age โ covering grief, depression, loneliness, counseling stigma in older generations, and what compassionate, human-centered care really looks like inside long-term care communities.
They also share what it looks like to build a mission-driven healthcare business together as a married couple โ balancing leadership, compassion, and shared purpose while staying focused on impact over profit.
Kenny and Stacy share the story of how a margarita-fueled conversation became Azalea Health Services โ a mission-driven mental health company serving seniors in long-term care across Louisiana and Texas. Kenny brings 15 years of middle-market banking and private equity experience; Stacy brings a background in marketing and public relations and a co-founder title she never expected.
This episode is equal parts entrepreneurship, marriage, mission, and grit โ including the barbecue ministry story Kenny calls his north star for the business.
