We recently connected with Joelle Whiting and have shared our conversation below.
Joelle, so good to have you with us today. We’ve always been impressed with folks who have a very clear sense of purpose and so maybe we can jump right in and talk about how you found your purpose?
I spent years searching — not just for a career, but for something deeper… a calling. And one day, I realized my purpose wasn’t hiding in some far-off place — it was woven into everything I already loved: connecting with people, creating unforgettable experiences, and helping others feel at home in new spaces.
I found my purpose in helping people create the lives and memories they dream about — whether it’s finding the perfect home or planning a magical trip that becomes part of their story. ✨
It’s in the little moments — the excitement in a client’s voice when we book their dream resort, or the peace someone feels when they walk into the home that just feels right.
That’s when I knew:
This is what I’m meant to do.
This is how I serve, how I shine, and how I show up fully — for my clients, my friends, and myself. 💫
Thanks, so before we move on maybe you can share a bit more about yourself?
I’m Joelle Whiting — a travel curator, real estate matchmaker, and your go-to girl for crafting unforgettable experiences, both at home and around the world. ✨ Through my brands, Celestial Travel by Joelle and my work as a Florida Realtor, I help people create a life they love — whether that’s through booking a dreamy island escape or finding the perfect front porch to sip morning coffee.
What makes my work so special is that it’s rooted in purpose and passion. I don’t just book trips or sell houses — I help people step into chapters of their lives. From walking clients through their first home purchase to planning their anniversary in Greece, I’m there to make it seamless, personal, and full of heart.
My brand is spiritual, boho, and grounded in connection. I believe the world is full of beauty — in sunsets, sandy toes, city streets, and sacred homes — and I love helping others experience that magic with intention and joy.
🌟 What’s new?
This year, I’m expanding my travel services with curated European experiences — especially in Greece, which holds a huge piece of my heart. I’m also developing educational content to help others travel smarter and live with more freedom. And on the real estate side, I’m growing my business on Florida’s east coast as I prepare for a big move to Coral Springs in 2026!
More than anything, I want people to know that with me, it’s personal. I pour love and energy into everything I do. If you’re ready for your next big move — across the street or across the world — I’d be honored to guide you.
If you had to pick three qualities that are most important to develop, which three would you say matter most?
Looking back, the three most impactful qualities in my journey have been:
1. Resilience
The path isn’t always smooth — there have been slow seasons, doubts, and moments I questioned everything. But learning to keep showing up, even when things felt uncertain, was a game-changer. Resilience allowed me to grow through the hard parts instead of giving up.
Advice: Don’t be afraid to start before you’re ready. You’ll figure it out as you go — and every challenge is shaping the stronger, wiser version of you.
2. Authentic Connection
Whether I’m working with a real estate client or planning a dream vacation, the relationships are what matter most. People remember how you made them feel. Showing up with kindness, listening deeply, and creating meaningful connections has opened so many doors for me.
Advice: Focus on building real relationships — not just followers or sales. The energy you put out comes back tenfold when it’s rooted in service and love.
3. Curiosity + Willingness to Learn
I never stop learning — whether it’s mastering a new travel platform, studying the housing market, or learning how to brand myself online. Staying curious and open has helped me adapt, grow, and evolve in both my businesses.
Advice: Stay hungry for knowledge, even when things feel overwhelming. You don’t need to know everything — just stay open, take it one step at a time, and don’t be afraid to ask for help (I did — a lot!).
At the end of the day, your journey won’t look like anyone else’s — and that’s the point. Trust your timing, lead with heart, and give yourself grace along the way. 🌿✨
How would you describe your ideal client?
My ideal client is someone who values connection, trust, and meaningful experiences. Whether they’re booking a trip or buying a home, they’re not just looking for a transaction — they’re looking for guidance, intention, and someone who genuinely cares about their journey.
In travel, I love working with people who are curious, open-minded, and excited to explore beyond the surface — those who want to immerse themselves in the culture, soak in the beauty, and create lifelong memories, not just check boxes off a list. ✨
In real estate, my ideal client is someone who sees their next move as a chapter in their story. They’re excited (maybe a little nervous), and they appreciate having someone by their side who’s calm, grounded, and ready to advocate for them like family.
If you’re the kind of person who says “this feels right” when you walk into a space or see a sunset on a new shore — then we’re probably a great match.
