Episode 12: Finding Peace Amidst Chaos with JP Sears | JP Sears
Listen and Subscribe:
You might be unfamiliar with the name JP Sears, but I would be surprised if you haven’t come across at least some of his work . Boasting over 400 million views on Youtube alone he is a force for joy in this chaotic world. JP is a youtuber, comedian, emotional healing coach, author, speaker, world traveler, and curious student of life - oh and he is absolutely YOKED.
In this podcast, I took the opportunity to highlight a piece of JP that is often overlooked. He isn’t just a goofy comedian, but an incredibly serious person who has leveraged comedy to understand and examine his internal struggle. In his own words, “In the past I used humor to escape myself, now I use humor to go into myself.” In the same way that JP used his suffering to hone his gift we examine the opportunity that Covid-19 has presented for men to pause and contemplate their role as a husband, father, provider, and brother. We each have the opportunity, now more than ever, to take the chaos of the world, to sit with it, and to help create peace through it.
