Sue McGarvie feeds crocodiles on her birthday, collects red dresses like souvenirs, and somehow turns every airport lounge into a meet-cute waiting to happen. A Clinical Sex & Relationship Therapist and one of North America’s leading experts on modern love, Sue has spent nearly a decade guiding groups through Los Cabos sunsets, Dominican beaches, Florida hideaways, Italian villages, and Parisian boulangeries—always with a story, a snack, and a knack for creating instant community.
After one unforgettable trip to Paris, Sue realized her adventures weren’t “just trips”… they were tribes in motion. So she earned her TICO license, joined North Star Travel Group, and built Playfulcoconuts around one irresistible promise:
life gets juicier when you travel with people who lift you up, laugh with you, and occasionally steal your fries.
She’s not taking you rappelling off a cliff (Sue likes a comfy bed and a strong shower pressure), but she will lead you off-trail to the best hidden café, introduce you to five new friends before breakfast, and create pre-trip mixers and post-trip reunions so your adventure doesn’t end at the airport.
As host of a top-20 global sex and relationship podcast and Chief Love Officer of Over40CONNECT, Sue is a world-class community builder. She can’t stop matchmaking—accidentally or on purpose—and her groups regularly return home with new travel buddies, crushes, confidantes, and occasionally soulmates.
She’s your guide if you love great coffee, great company, great sheets, and safe little stretches of adventure that make you feel alive again—all while she checks under rocks for leprechauns and hunts for the perfect Merlot.
Follow Sue McGarvie. She’ll take you somewhere unforgettable.
