Jo Moseley is a 59 year old single Mum of two grown up sons, living on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales. She’s a paddleboarder, wild swimmer, hiker and beach cleaner. She is also the author of two bestselling books about beautiful places to paddleboard, a speaker and podcast host. Jo started paddleboarding aged 51 simply to heal her knee and help her menopausal insomnia and anxiety.
In 2019 she became the first woman to paddleboard 162 miles coast to coast from Liverpool to Goole, fundraising and picking up litter. A film about her adventure called Brave Enough - A Journey Home to Joy has been screened to sell out audiences online and at prestigious film festivals. In 2022, her first bestselling book Stand Up Paddleboarding in Great Britain was published followed by Stand Up Paddleboarding in the Lake District in 2024.
Jo believes you’re not too old and it’s never too late to have an adventure! She does a headstand a day and has recently taken up skateboarding.
Tune in to learn about the “sit to stand” test, the importance of fitness and mobility for healthy aging, and how Jo's passion for outdoor adventures continues to inspire and uplift those around her.
