We’re Dr. Will and Krista Van Derveer, hosts of The Art of We. Thank you for joining us on our first episode as we share why we’re launching this show, a bit about our background, and what you can expect from future episodes. 

Since we went on our first date five years ago, we've started four businesses, one of them among the fastest-growing companies in the US. Together, we’re impacting thousands of lives through advanced educational programs and integrative medicine for mental health and psychedelic-assisted therapy. 

In today’s episode, we revisit the conversation that we had on that date, which completely changed the course of both of our lives. We discuss the commitment we’ve made to ourselves and each other to have the kind of relationship where we mobilize and do beautiful things in the world. We also touch on how we support each other's authentic expression and growth, even when it bumps up against conditioned belief systems or thought patterns.
