In today’s episode, I’m joined by luxury real estate developer Steve Harbaugh to talk about building a legacy on the crystal-clear shores of Exuma. After years of success in New Jersey, Steve moved his family to South Florida and began developing a high-end resort on an island off an island, where materials arrive by boat and concrete is mixed by hand. We talk about setbacks like the 2008 housing crash, turning failure into a career breakthrough, and why TikTok is now his most effective sales tool. Steve also shares how he manages family life, grief, and business with intention, flexibility, and a little bit of sandbar magic.
