The Joy of SUP - The Paddleboarding Sunshine Podcast

Sharing the joy of stand up paddleboarding. Join us for inspiring conversations with dream guests talking about all the health, happiness, friendship, adventure and possibility that SUP brings to our lives. From world endurance record holders to SUP Yoga, SUP with a Pup to SUP Surf, we will hear uplifting stories and fantastic information to help you on your paddleboarding journey. SUP has given our host, Jo Moseley, so much joy, confidence, courage and community since her first lesson in the Lake District in 2016 recovering from a knee injury. She became the first woman to paddle coast to coast across northern England, fundraising and picking up litter, has been in magazines, on the tv, radio and a guest on many podcasts. The film about her journey called Brave Enough - A Journey Home to Joy was launched to critical and audience acclaim in 2021. She has made two short award winning films about paddleboarding and written many articles. Having experienced such happiness and wellbeing, her goal in launching the podcast is to shine a light on the brilliant stories of others in the paddleboarding community and to share valuable ideas with her audience. It is both a thank you letter to everyone who has inspired, welcomed and encouraged her and a love letter to the wonderful sport. At the heart of the podcast is the idea 'We rise by lifting others' and that's what she is here to do - to welcome, encourage and celebrate you in the paddleboarding community. Whether you are dipping your paddle in the water for the first time, want to explore new places or disciplines, or have years of paddleboarding memories, you are in the right place and this is the podcast for you.

Linzi Hawkin - SUPKids, Protect Blue, The Flying Doctors + PB + Chocolate

May 07, 2021 • Jo Moseley • Season 2 • Episode 2

I am so thrilled to welcome Linzi Hawkin to The Joy of SUP Podcast.

I first met Linzi in 2018 when we were paddleboarding on the Thames with Active 360 and Adventure Uncovered before Adventure Uncovered Live. I remember hearing her speak about SUP Kids and being really intrigued and keen to find out more.

I think you'll find her story and the work she is doing to make a difference fascinating!

Linzi is a creative strategist and environmental educator living in a tiny house on a pretty tiny island. She is obsessed with all things ocean. Linzi is fuelled by curiosity, chasing fun and breaking rules. She is happiest when in, on or under water.

Linzi is committed to striving for a healthy ocean, thriving ecosystems and humans who are more connected to nature.

She is founder of SUPKids, Co-Founder of Protect Blue, Wavemaker Collective and Plastic Free Jersey.

In this episode we talk about the amazing SUPKids programme she created that started in Australia with the Flying Doctors, working with Starboard to make a difference and bring SUP and environmental education programmes to more children (5 - 12 years old) across the globe.

We talk about life on a tiny island in a tiny house, peanut butter and chocolate snacks, paddling with her sister on an adventure, saltwater crocs and surfing.
