Playing Jazz on harmonica takes great chops physically and mentally and a great ear
doesn't hurt LOL.
Most people playing Jazz on harmonica don't take the time to learn how to
improv the way other instruments do. IMHOThey play the head and then a solo
that always shows me they haven't put the time in to learn the art of improv.
This is both diatonic and chromatic players.
Ballads are a good place to start because the changes move slower.
This is me from many years ago.

My policy is if I'm gonna talk the talk I should walk the walk LOL
Just my two cents
