After a battle with cancer during the COVID pandemic, Jessica was looking for a way to reconnect with nature and find peace again. 

Paddling has been a key aspect of her healing journey, and she has turned that passion into a blog, Walk and Paddle. She now collaborates with tourism boards and the Florida Springs Council to encourage people to get outside, explore the Florida springs, and see that paddling isn’t just for athletes—it’s for everyone.

Resources from Jessica:

• The Florida State Park Activity Book
• Freebie vault with checklists and coloring sheets
• Paddling with Mobility Needs
