My side hustle might surprise you… |
|
Hi First name / there!
Okay, so real estate is my main gig…and I absolutely love it!
But did you know I also run a little side biz called Paddlin’ Madeleine? When I’m not showing homes, you can usually find me floating through mangrove tunnels, spotting baby sharks and sea turtles, and guiding private paddleboard tours.
My family says that Paddlin’ Madeleine is a true reflection of me: easygoing, nature-loving, and always seeking joy in the simple things (like naps in a mangrove tunnel)! Paddleboarding helped me slow down, explore hidden gems around the Keys, and reconnect with the present moment. After my first time on the water, I knew I wanted to share that magic with others. My goal? Keep it fun, create space for connection, and celebrate this beautiful ocean we get to call home. I get to share some of my favorite local spots while creating laid-back, joy-filled moments on the water. Each tour is totally private and customized to you and your group. I also offer paddleboard rentals and gift cards if you’re looking to surprise someone with a little salty adventure! So whether you’re in the mood to house hunt or hop on a board…
Let’s get paddlin’! |
