EPISODE 5

JP Sears: Friendships, Relationships and Personal Growth

You probably know JP Sears as a YouTube star, author and satirist whose Ultra Spiritual Life series of viral videos lampoons everything from Santa Claus, college football and the lunar landing to being a horrible life coach, vegan diets and going organic badly.

What you may not know is how Paul’s guidance and belief in JP was so strong and true that it transformed both of their lives for the better. And, that’s just scraping the surface of this deep chat between peers in this episode of Living 4D With Paul Chek.
