Meet Lucie McGuire

The Founder of Get Real Social

Lucie McGuire is a multi- entrepreneur and the founder of Get Real Social, a social media agency known for helping businesses build authentic brands and connect with audiences through organic growth strategies. A native of Jensen Beach, Florida, Lucie has been in the marketing industry since 2016, managing social media for various businesses and earning a reputation as the “Social Media Guru.” Her approach goes beyond just content creation—she teaches the “why” behind branding, empowering her clients with the tools and confidence they need to thrive online.

But Lucie’s impact extends far beyond social media. In 2020, she founded The Traveling Youth, a nonprofit that funds study abroad opportunities for under-served college & trade students. Inspired by her own transformative travel experiences in 2018, Lucie is passionate about opening doors for young people to gain cultural knowledge and broaden their perspectives. This initiative earned her recognition as the 2023 Humanitarian of the Year.

When she’s not helping businesses or mentoring future leaders, Lucie co-runs Moxie Adventure Partners, a company dedicated to empowering women through solo travel experiences. An avid adventurer herself, Lucie can often be found paddleboarding, hiking, or exploring new destinations. Her belief in the power of authenticity, connection, and personal growth guides all her endeavors—whether she’s leading a brand to success or helping someone embark on a life-changing journey.

GET REAL SOCIAL GIVES BACK

The Traveling Youth: Empowering Futures Through Global Exploration

The Traveling Youth is a nonprofit organization dedicated to empowering underserved students with life-changing study abroad opportunities. Founded in 2020 by our very own Lucie McGuire, the organization was inspired by her personal study abroad experience that profoundly changed her life. As a first-time traveler, Lucie discovered the incredible growth and self-awareness that comes from stepping outside one’s comfort zone and experiencing the world. She knew she wanted to create the same opportunities for young people who might not otherwise have the chance to explore beyond their own communities.

Since its inception, The Traveling Youth has been committed to providing students with the resources and support they need to expand their horizons, build cultural awareness, and gain invaluable life skills. At Get Real Social, we’re deeply passionate about this mission. That’s why we’ve proudly contributed our social media expertise to The Traveling Youth at no cost, helping spread the word and amplify their impact. We’ve also made it a point to sponsor every event, supporting their cause both monetarily and with our enthusiasm.

We believe in the power of travel to transform lives, and we hope you do too.

Together, we can help more students see the world and discover their limitless potential.
