Spotlight Sioux Falls

09/12/2025

Healing stories like these don’t happen every day… but they are happening in Sioux Falls.

At the Midwest Hyperbarics ribbon cutting, we met people who were genuinely excited (and in some cases emotional) about what Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy can do:

Faster recovery for athletes
Relief for chronic illness + autoimmune disease
Improved healing after surgery
Hope for concussions, stroke symptoms, and long-term brain injuries
Limb-saving results for people with wounds that wouldn’t heal

In just 60 seconds, you’ll feel the energy of our Sioux Falls community discovering something new… and the people behind it who care deeply about helping others heal.

Sometimes a single sentence tells the whole story.

In this week’s Spotlight Sioux Falls short, Jo shared what it felt like when she was placed in a nursing home after multiple hospital stays.

And thanks to Kore Cares, she got that chance to go home.
Not just to go home, but to stay home.
With caregivers who feel like family, 24/7 support, and a team that knows her routines, her cat, and the little things that make life feel like life.

This is what compassionate home care looks like.
Not institutional.
Not transactional.
But personal, human, and deeply dignifying.

If you’ve ever wondered what the right kind of care can make possible… Jo’s story is a powerful reminder.

If you know someone exploring home care, share this with them - it might be exactly the hope they need today.

The best design isn't new. It’s timeless.

Most people look at a city and see the skyline. Designers look at a city and see the foundation.

We recently sat down with Aspen Thorstenson, CEO of Create design + develop Architects.

We talked about the revitalization of downtown Sioux Falls.

We expected to talk about new construction. Instead, we talked about "good bones."

Aspen pointed out that the magic of isn't the new developments. It’s the friction between the past and the future.

It’s the way modern design wraps around 100-year-old Quartzite and brick.

Too many developers think design is about making things look pretty.

Aspen knows the truth:

Design isn't decoration. Design is an experience.

Next time you’re downtown, stop looking ahead. Look up.

What’s the most underrated piece of architecture in your city?

"Being intentional" is the only path forward as we build the future of Sioux Falls.

At least that's the answer you will get if you ask the CEO and Founder of Create design + develop Architects, Aspen Thorstenson.

If you haven't noticed, the rapid expansion of the city post-COVID also meant design that wasn't cohesive. Neighborhoods that suddenly felt like supermarket parking lots.

Business districts that felt isolated and didn't tie into the neighborhoods.

Office Parks were left standing alone at the end of town, uncertain as to their future neighbors.

Intention builds intelligent action.

That's the future, and Create Design and Develop is going to have a big part of making that happen!

Who doesn’t love a realtor who could sell your house for the most money?

What about a realtor who can sell your home in the shortest amount of time?

How about a realtor who can find you the right home that matches your parameters and your budget?

As these very words came out of her mouth during a branding exercise with her coach years ago, Amy Stockberger. had an epiphany, and it quickly became the cornerstone of her mission.

These were table stakes, not a mission statement.

Since then, she’s lit the world on fire. Her team at Amy Stockberger Real Estate
is all on board, putting client service center stage.

This local real estate icon isn’t just in the real estate game — she’s out here rewriting the entire playbook.

Not a sound bite.
Not a headline-chaser.
She's magnetic, and her success is undeniable.

It's not just real estate.
It's the lives she's impacting while leaving a footprint all over the city.

Now the entire Real Estate world is paying attention.

She’s a wife.
She’s a mom.
She’s a leader in every room she walks into — from her team to her communities, serving as one of the true cornerstones of Sioux Falls.

She was in the middle of a branding exercise when she heard something that stopped her in her tracks.

“We could sell your home for the most money in the shortest amount of time…
We could help you find the right home within your budget…”

That's when it happened.

“You guys… that’s literally just the definition of my job.”

And that’s the moment you realize:
She’s not here to do real estate.
She’s here to ELEVATE the entire industry.

Fresh off delivering 1,100+ turkeys at her annual community event — one of countless ways she shows up — Amy Stockberger keeps proving it’s not about transactions.

It’s about impact.
It’s about service.
It’s about lifting the community at scale.

Sioux Falls doesn’t just know her.
Sioux Falls is stronger because she’s in it.
