43. The possibility of midlife - Jo Moseley
Jo Moseley is that rare breed: a positive menopause story.
The first woman to stand up paddle from coast to coast in the UK, Jo first came on the Board Women podcast two years ago, talking about how this challenge had transformed her life at a time when she needed it most. She described periods of being on the bathroom floor crying, her relationship having ended, and how paddleboarding had brought her joy, challenge and a new found confidence, which she later applied to learning to skateboard in her late 50’s.
Two years later, Jo’s coast to coast challenge has proved instrumental in changing her entire existence. She is now a 3 x author, having released two SUP guides, but more recently launching her book ‘Adventures on The Water: the Power of Paddleboarding to Change Lives’. It’s a collection of stories from people talking about their relationship with Paddleboarding and the water more generally, and it spans from aspirational adventures like Brendon Prince navigating the entire British coastline, to Caz Dawson’s amazon expedition, to Karthy Marston’s SUP yoga classes.
Jo has also released short films, the latest one having debuted at Kendal Mountain Festival, ‘Skinny’ charting her first experience of skinny dipping outdoors, in her sixties.
Whether planned or not, Jo has become the poster child of embracing joy in later life, and a key theme to our conversation is the need for more positive stories of this chapter. The interview covers:
- The life changing influence of her adventure
- The story behind her new book
- Why taking care of yourself in menopause is essential
- The need for a more positive view of our next chapter
- Why more accessible role models are important
- Skinny Dipping in your 60’s (and being on the big screen naked)
- Finding freedom in the idea that no-one thinks about you
Jo also talks about two amazing women that we’ve been lucky enough to interview before on the show - Gemma Palmer Dighton, and Sam Metcalfe.
