Wow Josie, I've really enjoyed seeing this side of you. I've been watching your mudlarking videos now for possibly two years (not exactly sure) but I've loved watching you and your dad (between the few accounts I have) go out together, and the bond you have is amazing! I love what you guys do, and the energy you have. I also relate to growing up and finding that my interests were not the same as the other girls.
I've been urban exploring since I was 9years old, mostly by myself in our old "ghost town" because there were no other kids around my age.
I don't get to explore much anymore, (which is why my videos are so few and far between) and so I enjoy watching mudlarking videos instead.
Keep it up! I love it!

I remember hearing you say a long time back that you are a professional skateboarder and so I'll look forward to following your new fitness channel. Just in time for inspriration I think 😊
Have a wonderful day, good luck on your run challenge, and stay true to your course.

Absolutely Josie women should be aloud and encouraged to be who they really are. Grab your passions and run with it, you find it brings you such joy. Don't ever let anyone dictate who you should be or act for that matter. If some tries to tell you well your a girl why aren't you dressed like one just reply " but I am it's 2022 ". 😜

It’s nice to see you as such a well developed personality. I really enjoy the Mudpies seeing you and your dad exploring the world. If you go for a black belt, what martial art interests you. My accupuncturist was a master in the Chen style martial arts from Shanghai. It’s tai chi moves are amazingly beautiful but when you go for it’s application as a martial art it takes incredible strength and flexibility. Good luck in your pursuits!

massively understand her on the complex of growing up without ig/social as a teenager + then having it constantly everywhere in your twenties - adapting to it and in many cases, not adapting to it very well...

Josie, I have been watching you and your dad mud larking... I have always been envious of the relationship between the two of you. Now I see this, I am convinced you're living the life I always wanted. I was always a tom boy and at the age of 52 I still hate dresses and skirts. I love doing the "BOY" things. There is nothing wrong with you or anyone else that loves to mix up gender roles. Keep being YOU because what I have seen of you in many many videos, You're the best and I admire everything about you. X
