  • Ep. 129: JP Morgan Jr. - Becoming Yourself: Travel, Risk & the Art of Self-Creation
    Jun 2 2025

    MAUI: John Patrick Morgan Jr., practical philosopher and Founder of Creating, joins me from his homestead in Maui to trace the invisible architecture behind freedom, agency, and self-authorship. Drawing on a life steeped in physics, philosophy, martial arts, and spiritual inquiry, JP challenges the usual narratives, showing how real power comes from leaning into uncertainty, self-creation and taking quantum actions.

    If you’re drawn to ideas that disrupt default thinking, this one will stay with you.

    JP Morgan Jr.


    Inside This Episode:

    • How major geographical moves—from London > Providence > Los Angeles > Maui influenced JP’s identity and philosophy
    • What bootstrapping travel teaches you about resourcefulness, creativity, and discomfort
    • The major life decision JP & his wife made on the PCH
    • Life on the Farm in Maui
    • Self-creation, Creating programs, and true freedom?
    • Quantum actions: what they are, why they matter, and how they invite outsized change
    • When planning backfires what remains?
    • The AI Era and Awaken.is



    ABOUT JP MORGAN JR.: Practical Philosopher, Writer & Speaker


    John Patrick Morgan, or as friends call him “JP”, is a practical philosopher, writer, and the founder of Creating – a body of perspectives and practices for spiritual growth, worldly success, and societal impact.

    Post his formal studies in Physics and Mathematics, JP turned his fascination with ‘how things work’ to the dynamics of business, relationships, and being human. This took him on many adventures including building multiple small businesses, traveling the world for years on end, competing in martial arts, fitness, and endurance sports, and studying the world’s philosophies and religions.

    Fifteen years ago, JP turned his passion for a self-dialogue that elevates the human spirit into an outward-facing practice. Through this he discovered and came to live the purpose of his life, which is to champion the one person in front of him; to see them fully, love them deeply, and through piercing dialogue, grow their freedom, love, and power.

    Today he resides with his wife, two boys, two cats, and thirty hens on their small homestead in Upcountry Maui.
