Brent and Brianne DeSellier: Dynamic South Florida Power Couple to Watch

Brent and Brianne at a recent yachting industry event.

Meet Brent and Brianne DeSellier, the once college sweethearts, now married power duo, who are becoming powerful forces in their industries and in the South Florida community, seemingly overnight. This is a duo to keep an eye on.

Brent is a yacht broker with one of the oldest and most respected brokerage firms in the industry and Brianne is a tax attorney and CPA employed in the Washington National Tax Office of a large public accounting firm. Brent, who is originally from Massachusetts, and Brianne, a South Florida native who grew up in Jupiter, Florida, met on their first day of business school at the University of Miami when they were both only 18 years old and have been virtually inseparable ever since.

We don't really try to balance everything; that's the secret. I really believe that this whole concept of achieving 'balance' in life is a misnomer and an obstacle to true success and fulfillment. The reality is that not everything matters equally, so it's natural for your life to be somewhat unbalanced. We just go all-in on the things that matter most: family, health/fitness, career and community. And we don't waste time or energy trying to 'balance' other unimportant or less important things.

When asked how the couple manages to strike a work-life balance despite their busy schedules and demanding careers, Brianne had an unconventional, yet logical, perspective: “We don’t really try to balance everything; that’s the secret. I really believe that this whole concept of achieving ‘balance’ in life is a misnomer and an obstacle to true success and fulfillment. The reality is that not everything matters equally, so it’s natural for your life to be somewhat unbalanced. We just go all-in on the things that matter most: family, health/fitness, career and community. And we don’t waste time or energy trying to ‘balance’ other unimportant or less important things.”

In addition to managing a marriage and two dynamic careers, Brent and Brianne sit on the board of directors for Freedom Waters Foundation. They both have an obvious and contagious passion for the organization, which has a mission of improving the lives of individuals with special needs and veterans by providing therapeutic boating experiences.

Brent and Brianne are definitely a duo to keep an eye on.
