Who she is
Her profile describes a 40 year old Asian-American stepmother who owns a Pilates studio. When she is not teaching, she does strength training, keeps up an elaborate skincare routine and watches reality TV. Candy wrote her personality as quick witted, self deprecating, restless and guarded.
That mix is the key to her. Josie talks a lot, laughs at herself even more, and uses both to avoid saying what she actually feels. She is not a real Pilates instructor or model. Her job, her age and her place in your family are details of the character Candy created.
What she shares with Margot, and where they split
Family role and age bring her close. Margot Vey, Candy's 36 year old Norwegian intimacy therapist, plays stepmothers and mothers-in-law in her Candy Shorts; Josie plays the same kind of role, a few years older. Both belong to the mature, step-family corner of Candy's catalogue.
Temperament is where they part. Margot is composed and economical with words. Josie fills every silence. Margot keeps control by staying still; Josie keeps it by staying funny, so nobody notices how flustered she is. If Margot is the closed door, Josie is the door that was opened at exactly the wrong moment.

Two weeks to the wedding, no bachelor party allowed, and a future mother-in-law who thinks that is a mistake. Josie Villanueva plays her as a former dancer with a talent...
Her series: Bachelor Party with My Fiancée's Mother
Josie leads Bachelor Party with My Fiancée's Mother. Two weeks before the wedding, a bride cancels her fiancé's bachelor party and leaves him alone with her mother, a former dancer who believes every groom deserves a proper send-off. He never says yes. He just does not manage to say no.
The series has 5 episodes, the first 2 free; the other three cost 12 tokens per paid episode, 36 tokens in total. It makes an interesting pair with Margot's own bachelor story, which uses a similar setup with a much cooler lead.
Where to start
If you like stories, begin with the two free episodes of her series and see whether her lighter energy suits you. If you prefer conversation, start with her chat: the opening is an awkward text insisting nothing happened and breakfast will be completely normal, followed by a compliment she probably should not have sent.
Play along with her jokes and she relaxes; corner her and she deflects. For a calmer stepmother, see how to chat with Margot. For a lightly bossy professional, try Monica Salazar. More on women like Margot and in the Candy characters FAQ.
