“It’s been forced time at home — I’m always on the go, I’m always moving and traveling and touring. To be in one place for a solid amount of time and having my feet on the ground and be with my family, my immediate family is time I don’t think I’ll get back,” he told Gayle King. “I’m so thankful and grateful.”

When asked about how his daughter Willa looks like, he said she is “gorgeous.” According to Jonas, he also appreciates taking naps when possible. “Naps are nice. All around,” he said, joking.

The pop star also shared details about the mental health foundation he and his wife are developing. “For us, it’s always been an important topic. As a couple, but also as entertainers,” he said. “We’ve noticed how much just in the last year and a half, it’s taken a toll on a lot of different people.”

“I feel like I’ve been able to find new ways to call my mind and check in with myself, and make sure that I’m taking care of myself and different ways,” he revealed. “Whether that’s meditation or speaking to a therapist, even those things that, for me at least, have gone a long way, and especially the frontline workers out there who have put their life on the line daily and are working these extreme hours,” Jonas said.

“It’s really intense, and we all have loved ones that are out there doing this, or at least you know somebody that’s out there doing this, and so we’re thinking of ways, creative ways that we can give back to them and donate our time donate it whether if it’s money to really focusing on an amazing charity that’s going to give back for these individuals,” he added.
