The Art of We

6. A Unique Definition of "We"


Listen Later

In the episode, we break down our interpretation of “the We” and how we hold it. This concept really helps us show up as better partners, stay grounded in our vows, and bring things forward that we might not expect. 

We share what it looks like to take mutual responsibility for the health of our connection and provide examples of how we use “the We” perspective in other relationships besides our marriage and business partnership. 

This practice gives us the chance to look at situations from a bird’s eye view, especially when we get caught up in the minutiae of daily life and the stressors of being in a growth season. In our conversion, we explore how we bring this sort of awareness to our relationships with our co-founders and team members. 

Because we have a larger mission for the world, our understanding of “the We” within the container of our business is so important for seeing that vision through. Will also shares his advice for anyone thinking about going into business partnership and/or stepping into a leadership position.
