When we feel at rock bottom, how do we pull ourselves back up?    Jo Moseley, 59, is a single Mum of two grown up sons living on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales.    Alongside a lovely day job, Jo is a bestselling author, podcaster and award winning tiny filmmaker.    Jo talks about some of the difficult moments in her life, when she has been forced to be brave, and how she has overcome stereotypes about what women her age should be doing, and how she wrote a bestselling book.    In 2019 Jo became the first woman to SUP (stand up paddleboard) 162 miles coast to coast from Liverpool to Goole, picking up litter and fundraising. A film about her adventure called Brave Enough - A Journey Home to Joy by award winning filmmaker Frit Tam has been selected for prestigious film festivals such as Kendal Mountain Film Festival & Shextreme plus sell out online screenings.    The lessons learned from the challenge and her podcast The Joy of SUP - the Paddleboarding Sunshine Podcast gave Jo the confidence to pitch her first book in 2020 during lockdown.    In spring 2021 she travelled the country with her board Grace meeeting inspiring paddleboarders, sleeping on the beach as the sun set in Scotland, watching dolphins and huge jellyfish in Wales and enjoying urban paddles in Liverpool, Bristol and London.    As a result, in 2022 her first bestselling book Stand Up Paddleboarding in Great Britain - Beautiful Places to Paddleboard in England, Scotland and Wales was published by award winning Vertebrate Publishing. It is the first and currently only Great Britain wide travel guide dedicated to paddleboarding.   After the success of SUP Great Britain, she was invited to write a guide to beautiful places to paddleboard in the Lake District. Her second book Stand Up Paddleboarding in the Lake District will be published in May 2024.     Jo loves sharing the joy of fresh air, hiking, dipping in the sea and lakes as well as beach cleaning. She has a “headstand a day until I’m 60” practice and is learning to skateboard.
