We’re thrilled to share some exciting news - MSN has named our founder, Stephanie Emmons, one of the Top 10 Trailblazing Entrepreneurs to Watch in 2025.
If you know Stephanie, you know this isn't about accolades for the sake of it. It's about the fact that she just kept showing up, kept solving problems, kept refusing to accept "that's just how things are done." That's the kind of person who deserves recognition, not because they chased it, but because they were too busy actually building something real.
From One Mom's Challenge to a Therapy Center That Changes Lives
Her story starts simple enough. Her son, Trevor, was born with lissencephaly which is a rare brain disorder. Most people would've buckled under that weight. Stephanie buckled down and kept going. She taught while raising him. She learned ABA therapy not from textbooks alone, but from watching her kid thrive under proper care. She became a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) because she had to understand this world inside and out.
That's what led to Trevor's Place. A therapy center right here in Central Texas that serves military families and civilians alike. Real people. Real kids. Real progress. And it all started because one mom decided her son deserved every chance possible. Today, Trevor is thriving, and families are getting the support they actually need.
But here's where it gets exciting, Stephanie didn't stop there.
Seeing the Problem, Building the Solution
While working with families at Trevor's Place, Stephanie noticed something broken. Providers couldn't talk to families smoothly. Families had no idea what was happening in sessions. Insurance made everything harder. Therapists were drowning in admin activities instead of focusing on kids. It was a mess, and she saw it firsthand every single day.
So she didn't just complain about it. She didn't accept it as "the cost of doing business." She spent three years building S Cubed to fix it. Real talk - this platform exists because Stephanie sat with families and therapists and asked them what they actually needed. Then she built it. That's the difference between solving problems on paper and solving them in real life.
The platform brings transparency where there was confusion. It connects families, providers, and insurers in ways that actually make sense. And it works because it was built by someone who understands both sides, the clinical side and the human side.
Why This Moment Matters
MSN's recognition? It's really just confirmation of what the families and practitioners using our platform already know. Stephanie doesn't think small. She doesn't accept broken systems. And she doesn't stop pushing until things actually work better.
We're genuinely excited about this. Not because of the prestige, but because it shines a light on the work that matters. It reminds people that real innovation happens when you refuse to accept the status quo. When you build from lived experience. When you actually listen to the people you're trying to help.
We're grateful for this recognition. But mostly, we're just grateful we get to work alongside someone who actually cares enough to change things.
