James Van Der Beek Instagram - 13 years ago today we were told that the guy who had come to you in a dream and had given you a wedding date could marry us - that night - in the basement of the Kabbalah Centre in Tel Aviv… on what happened to be the exact date he’d given you in the dream. We rushed to get ready, had a bunch of people we didn’t know (and a few we did) dance around us, got ambushed by Israeli paparazzi afterwards, then ate at an outdoor Lebanese dive with plastic tablecloths and chairs and amazing food… and we were off. We’ve gone through success, tragedy, joy, stress, triumph, uncertainty, and through it all… these have been the best years of my life. Every moment. Because I have the BEST adventure partner. Our life is CRAZY right now. We might be crazier. And I wouldn’t have it any other way. I love you. I celebrate you. I honor you. Thank you for everything you are, and everything you bring out in the people lucky enough to be loved by you. Much, much more to come ❤️

James Van Der Beek Instagram - 25 years ago today… my life changed. Not gradually, not day-by-day… instantly. It was the culmination of 5 years of auditioning, hundreds of hours on stage, thousands of hours traveling, preparing, dreaming, hoping, hearing “no”, and making up reasons to keep going. But the shift was overnight. There was life before becoming famous… and life after. Both have their benefits, both have their obstacles. I recall the biggest surprise being how little it thrilled me to be able to brag. For years, when extended family would ask, “You get anything, yet?” I LONGED to be able to say, “Yes!” and follow it up with something impressive. Then… when I’d finally gotten the thing that was plastered on so many billboards and bus stops that no one even HAD to ask… I recall wondering what hell I’d been pining for. It didn’t feel like a finish line. It wasn’t a salve for insecurities - it was a pressure cooker. Long-buried traumas didn’t disappear - they now lived closer to the surface. There were also some cool “pinch myself” moments along the way… but the truth is I didn’t know what to do with fame for the longest… because it took me a while to realize it wasn’t actually about me. It’s not a collection of energy… it’s a connection - one that requires circuitry to maintain. Its not an end game, it’s a tool - one that becomes burdensome if you can’t figure out its utility. And while I used to feel like it created a weird separation from people… now I feel like it connects me in a way I really appreciate. Which is all, really… a long-ass way of saying thank you. Thank you to everyone I’ve encountered as a result of this strange, wild, rocket ship ride, and to my fellow passengers who were strapped in alongside me… it’s good to know you. Makes me happy to see you all doing so well. Happy anniversary, guys. #dawsonscreek
James Van Der Beek Instagram - Cannot BELIEVE it’s been 13 years… It feels like yesterday I was staring into your little bassinet in the hospital, beyond exhausted, but unable to close my eyes and stop looking at you - and realizing I’d never be able to communicate just how cool it was to have a little you… You expanded my heart and my soul’s capacity the second you came out in ways I could’ve never imagined. You taught me what love was in an instant. And you’ve led the way ever since. Thank you for being you. For your kindness that somehow surpasses even your coolness, for your drive, your creativity, your A stink-eye and your smart-ass sense of humor. And for still thinking I’m funny. I love you for everything you are, and everything I see you becoming. Humbled and honored to be your dad. And I’ll always be your #1 fan. Happy birthday, my TEENAGER 😳❤️

James Van Der Beek Instagram - Two years ago today. We were done having kids. We’d “closed the birth portal”. And then you came kicking down the door, in your signature style. Because we needed you. And you knew it. Grateful every day for you, bubs. You’re a toy-throwing, football-loving little Texas dude, a class A snuggler, and getting to experience life from your point of view has made me fall in love with the world in a whole new way. I love reading to you. I love watching all your decisions and agendas. And your belly laughs might just be the best thing in the universe. Thank you for teaching me what it is to live life with unapologetic joy, and hopeful abandon. Can we maybe try sleeping through the night night, now? The whole night? Like, ALL the way through? 🙏 Love you forever, Bubba ❤️

James Van Der Beek Instagram - Fatherhood. It costs focus, sleep, time and money… You give up long brunches, watching the game live, crashing early, sleeping in, a clean house, clean yard, a clutter-free garage… You surrender projects, jobs, vacations, hobbies, free time, food off your plate, and the expectation that anything will ever remain exactly where you put it. And you wouldn’t trade it for anything in the world. Go figure that.. (Hint: You can’t. This is heart math ❤️And the better you get at it, the better you get at life.) Thank you @vanderkimberly and my six saucy angels for making me feel like the richest man on the planet. And thank you Dad for the good example ❤️ #happyfathersday #happyfathers #parenthood #fatherhood #gratitude #realtalk #heartmath

James Van Der Beek Instagram - I used to say that vacations with kids are vacations FOR kids - not for you. Because they require a certain surrender of your own agenda, your own comforts, even your own desires. But it struck me today, as @vanderkimberly and I were managing more tiny humans than I’d previously thought possible… that any excuse for single-minded focus on those you love most really IS a vacation: From all the stresses and “priorities”constantly nipping at the back of my consciousness, vying for my attention. It make sense if you don’t think about it too much. But it did make me happy today. #parenting #parenthood #optimism #vacation

James Van Der Beek Instagram - 14 years… I always say it doesn’t feel like that long. You always say it does 😂 Nothing could have prepared us for this past year - except perhaps the previous 12. Thank you for being the most incredible partner. You’ve broken me open in spots I didn’t even know were locked, and taught me how to receive more love than I thought possible. In the past, I feel like you’ve always set the pace for our co-evolution, but this year, as I’ve gone through my own radical transformation, you’ve tirelessly put in the work and somehow managed to match it. Thank you for your courage, your strength, your vulnerability and your tenderness. I’m thrilled and grateful to get to do this life with you. And now… let’s have a laugh. I love you beyond. Happy anniversary. Thank you for being in the world. ❤️

James Van Der Beek Instagram - Woke up at 4:30 am with anxiety. Well, actually - a tiny human woke me up, and after helping her to the bathroom, that’s when the anxiety kicked in. In the middle of our vacation. I see the divide. I feel the fear. And I know an Instagram post isn’t going to solve it for anybody. But this story keeps popping into my head, so I’ll share it: In my early twenties, right after getting famous, someone contacted me through my reps and said a high school teacher of mine had been diagnosed with a terminal illness and wanted to speak with me. Which was odd, because I’d had that teacher for literally one class - not a semester - just a single class for a subject I ended up not taking. I got on the phone with her, and after a few awkward pleasantries, she asked why I’d requested the call. Confused, I said I’d been told she’d asked for it. Turns out, no. So then we took it upon ourselves to figure out a deeper reason why this had happened. And as I listened to her pause for a moment to speak with a young daughter she knew she’d never see grow up, I naively asked if her ordeal had revealed any truth she wanted to share. After a fairly dubious pause, she said this (and I’m paraphrasing): If you think of life as a circle, and you’re in the middle of it, you get to choose what part of the circle you move towards. What energies you want to move into. All of it still exists, of course, and there’s no use denying that it does… but the question of where you want to spend your energy - and which reality you wish to experience more of - is up to you. Much more than we realize. Those words have always stuck with me. Sharing them in honor of her, in the hope they find whoever else might need them today. And, also… because I couldn’t do a flip off a log and NOT post it, amiright? 😇 Wishing you all health and joy today…

James Van Der Beek Instagram - 46 trips around the sun… I’ve been feeling into a new relationship with time, lately. I used to try to bend it to my will: Speed it up, squeeze more into it, short cut it. Or panic at its passing. Or just ignore it altogether. But recently, I’ve found myself happier the more I’m in touch with reverence, and deference to time. Yes, it CAN be stretched. It can fly… But this planet, this dimension, is governed by time: Trees grow at their pace. The earth spins at a near constant. And the more reverence I can find for all of it, the more life becomes a living prayer of appreciation. For life. For nature. For the great cosmic mystery of which we can sometimes can catch the edges. And the more I deference I can summon to the lessons earned only in time… the healthier relationship I have with miracles. And the easier it becomes to root in the present, open to the perfection of a process I was never meant to control. Which is all really just a long-winded way of saying: Middle-age rocks 🫶

James Van Der Beek Instagram - Happy Birthday to the most extraordinary person I know. @vanderkimberly, I am in awe of you: As a mother, a friend, a medicine woman, a healer, a conscious, caring superhuman on this planet... and as a wife? I would not be half the man I am without you, nor would I have survived this past year. Your strength has been our anchor, your magic has inspired us all to new heights, and your love has carried us through - me, the kids, our community… Everyone who knows you feels nurtured and safe in your presence. Maybe one day the world will get to witness the actual extent of your gifts, but for now... I count myself the luckiest man on the face of the earth. I love you. Thank you for being. ❤️

James Van Der Beek Instagram - I believe it’s healthy to dress up and play make-believe every once in a while. To step into someone else’s shoes and dance within new energetics. Even if you’re not insane enough to try to make a career out of acting, I personally believe everyone can benefit from trying on a different personality for a night. As for the candy? As parents, we’re trying to upgrade. I’ve had some success offering my kids cash for their stash (an offer, for the record, I would NOT have taken as a kid 😂) But with everything going on right now… a night of fantasy was just what we needed. #happyhalloween everyone! For those who are keeping score at home… my daughter suggested I go as a “Steampunk Pirate.” Mission: accepted, kid 🏴‍☠️ #halloween #kids #parenting #candy #costumes

James Van Der Beek Instagram - I’m convinced our children pick us. They come on their own timetable, with their own unique personalities, strengths, and passions… And we can’t “mold” them. Definitely can’t control them. And while we can try to set an example, at the end of the day… All we can really do is steward them. And their gifts. Protect them, nurture them, love them, teach them what we think we know… and let them curate what becomes theirs. Because, for reasons I can’t prove and will never fully understand… they chose us. With all our faults and shortcomings and unanswered questions, they decided WE would be the perfect obstacle course and guardian of their soul’s evolution. And all we can do… is the best we can do. Sending love to all the parents out there who are really, really trying ❤️

James Van Der Beek Instagram - To all the dads out there… doing your best on less sleep than you need, digging into those patience reserves, learning on the job and juggling a zillion agendas… I feel you. And I salute you. May we all find the energy to appreciate the victories and the capacity to forgive ourselves along the way. #happyfathersday

James Van Der Beek Instagram - #Egypt… With all my vocabulary, “Wow,” is what fell out of my mouth most of the time. We were gifted a magical experience, one I’m still processing - and might be for the rest of my life. The kids were rock stars, my friends became brothers, and despite all the travel and time zone crossing and early-morning alarms, I feel re-charged. I’d anticipated a metaphysical element to the trip, but I was caught off-gaurd at just how deeply I felt the spiritual resonance of all these temples. I mean, they are “temples”, after all (duh), but whatever assumptions I had about these otherworldly structures being “antiquities” faded as soon as I stepped into them. These were holy places, built to connect to the divine as best they understood it at the time. I left with reverence and awe - my eyes, heart, and soul expanded. Deepest thanks to everyone who made it possible. @matiasgustavodestefano #travel #travelwithkids #spirituality #spiritualawakenings

I’d anticipated a metaphysical element to the trip, but I was caught off-gaurd at just how deeply I felt the spiritual resonance of all these temples. I mean, they are “temples”, after all (duh), but whatever assumptions I had about these otherworldly structures being “antiquities” faded as soon as I stepped into them. These were holy places, built to connect to the divine as best they understood it at the time. I left with reverence and awe - my eyes, heart, and soul expanded. Deepest thanks to everyone who made it possible. @matiasgustavodestefano #travel #travelwithkids #spirituality #spiritualawakenings
James Van Der Beek - 173.4K Likes - 13 years ago today we were told that the guy who had come to you in a dream and had given you a wedding date could marry us - that night - in the basement of the Kabbalah Centre in Tel Aviv… on what happened to be the exact date he’d given you in the dream. We rushed to get ready, had a bunch of people we didn’t know (and a few we did) dance around us, got ambushed by Israeli paparazzi afterwards, then ate at an outdoor Lebanese dive with plastic tablecloths and chairs and amazing food… and we were off. We’ve gone through success, tragedy, joy, stress, triumph, uncertainty, and through it all… these have been the best years of my life. Every moment. Because I have the BEST adventure partner. Our life is CRAZY right now. We might be crazier. And I wouldn’t have it any other way. I love you. I celebrate you. I honor you. Thank you for everything you are, and everything you bring out in the people lucky enough to be loved by you. Much, much more to come ❤️

Likes : 173383James Van Der Beek - 129.5K Likes - 25 years ago today… my life changed. Not gradually, not day-by-day… instantly. It was the culmination of 5 years of auditioning, hundreds of hours on stage, thousands of hours traveling, preparing, dreaming, hoping, hearing “no”, and making up reasons to keep going. But the shift was overnight. There was life before becoming famous… and life after. Both have their benefits, both have their obstacles. I recall the biggest surprise being how little it thrilled me to be able to brag. For years, when extended family would ask, “You get anything, yet?” I LONGED to be able to say, “Yes!” and follow it up with something impressive. Then… when I’d finally gotten the thing that was plastered on so many billboards and bus stops that no one even HAD to ask… I recall wondering what hell I’d been pining for. It didn’t feel like a finish line. It wasn’t a salve for insecurities - it was a pressure cooker. Long-buried traumas didn’t disappear - they now lived closer to the surface. There were also some cool “pinch myself” moments along the way… but the truth is I didn’t know what to do with fame for the longest… because it took me a while to realize it wasn’t actually about me. It’s not a collection of energy… it’s a connection - one that requires circuitry to maintain. Its not an end game, it’s a tool - one that becomes burdensome if you can’t figure out its utility. And while I used to feel like it created a weird separation from people… now I feel like it connects me in a way I really appreciate. Which is all, really… a long-ass way of saying thank you. Thank you to everyone I’ve encountered as a result of this strange, wild, rocket ship ride, and to my fellow passengers who were strapped in alongside me… it’s good to know you. Makes me happy to see you all doing so well. Happy anniversary, guys. #dawsonscreek

For your kindness that somehow surpasses even your coolness, for your drive, your creativity, your A stink-eye and your smart-ass sense of humor. And for still thinking I’m funny. I love you for everything you are, and everything I see you becoming. Humbled and honored to be your dad. And I’ll always be your #1 fan. Happy birthday, my TEENAGER 😳❤️

Because we needed you. And you knew it. Grateful every day for you, bubs. You’re a toy-throwing, football-loving little Texas dude, a class A snuggler, and getting to experience life from your point of view has made me fall in love with the world in a whole new way. I love reading to you. I love watching all your decisions and agendas. And your belly laughs might just be the best thing in the universe. Thank you for teaching me what it is to live life with unapologetic joy, and hopeful abandon. Can we maybe try sleeping through the night night, now? The whole night? Like, ALL the way through? 🙏 Love you forever, Bubba ❤️

It costs focus, sleep, time and money… You give up long brunches, watching the game live, crashing early, sleeping in, a clean house, clean yard, a clutter-free garage… You surrender projects, jobs, vacations, hobbies, free time, food off your plate, and the expectation that anything will ever remain exactly where you put it. And you wouldn’t trade it for anything in the world. Go figure that.. (Hint: You can’t. This is heart math ❤️And the better you get at it, the better you get at life.)

Because they require a certain surrender of your own agenda, your own comforts, even your own desires. But it struck me today, as @vanderkimberly and I were managing more tiny humans than I’d previously thought possible… that any excuse for single-minded focus on those you love most really IS a vacation: From all the stresses and “priorities”constantly nipping at the back of my consciousness, vying for my attention. It make sense if you don’t think about it too much. But it did make me happy today. #parenting #parenthood #optimism #vacation

You always say it does 😂 Nothing could have prepared us for this past year - except perhaps the previous 12. Thank you for being the most incredible partner. You’ve broken me open in spots I didn’t even know were locked, and taught me how to receive more love than I thought possible. In the past, I feel like you’ve always set the pace for our co-evolution, but this year, as I’ve gone through my own radical transformation, you’ve tirelessly put in the work and somehow managed to match it. Thank you for your courage, your strength, your vulnerability and your tenderness. I’m thrilled and grateful to get to do this life with you. And now… let’s have a laugh. I love you beyond. Happy anniversary. Thank you for being in the world. ❤️

Thank you for your courage, your strength, your vulnerability and your tenderness. I’m thrilled and grateful to get to do this life with you. And now… let’s have a laugh. I love you beyond. Happy anniversary. Thank you for being in the world. ❤️

In the middle of our vacation. I see the divide. I feel the fear. And I know an Instagram post isn’t going to solve it for anybody. But this story keeps popping into my head, so I’ll share it: In my early twenties, right after getting famous, someone contacted me through my reps and said a high school teacher of mine had been diagnosed with a terminal illness and wanted to speak with me. Which was odd, because I’d had that teacher for literally one class - not a semester - just a single class for a subject I ended up not taking. I got on the phone with her, and after a few awkward pleasantries, she asked why I’d requested the call. Confused, I said I’d been told she’d asked for it. Turns out, no. So then we took it upon ourselves to figure out a deeper reason why this had happened. And as I listened to her pause for a moment to speak with a young daughter she knew she’d never see grow up, I naively asked if her ordeal had revealed any truth she wanted to share. After a fairly dubious pause, she said this (and I’m paraphrasing): If you think of life as a circle, and you’re in the middle of it, you get to choose what part of the circle you move towards. What energies you want to move into. All of it still exists, of course, and there’s no use denying that it does… but the question of where you want to spend your energy - and which reality you wish to experience more of - is up to you. Much more than we realize. Those words have always stuck with me. Sharing them in honor of her, in the hope they find whoever else might need them today. And, also… because I couldn’t do a flip off a log and NOT post it, amiright? 😇 Wishing you all health and joy today…

I used to try to bend it to my will: Speed it up, squeeze more into it, short cut it. Or panic at its passing. Or just ignore it altogether. But recently, I’ve found myself happier the more I’m in touch with reverence, and deference to time. Yes, it CAN be stretched. It can fly… But this planet, this dimension, is governed by time: Trees grow at their pace. The earth spins at a near constant. And the more reverence I can find for all of it, the more life becomes a living prayer of appreciation. For life. For nature. For the great cosmic mystery of which we can sometimes can catch the edges. And the more I deference I can summon to the lessons earned only in time… the healthier relationship I have with miracles. And the easier it becomes to root in the present, open to the perfection of a process I was never meant to control. Which is all really just a long-winded way of saying: Middle-age rocks 🫶

Your strength has been our anchor, your magic has inspired us all to new heights, and your love has carried us through – me, the kids, our community… Everyone who knows you feels nurtured and safe in your presence. Maybe one day the world will get to witness the actual extent of your gifts, but for now… I count myself the luckiest man on the face of the earth. I love you. Thank you for being. ❤️

Even if you’re not insane enough to try to make a career out of acting, I personally believe everyone can benefit from trying on a different personality for a night. As for the candy? As parents, we’re trying to upgrade. I’ve had some success offering my kids cash for their stash (an offer, for the record, I would NOT have taken as a kid 😂) But with everything going on right now… a night of fantasy was just what we needed. #happyhalloween everyone! For those who are keeping score at home… my daughter suggested I go as a “Steampunk Pirate.” Mission: accepted, kid 🏴‍☠️ #halloween #kids #parenting #candy #costumes

They come on their own timetable, with their own unique personalities, strengths, and passions… And we can’t “mold” them. Definitely can’t control them. And while we can try to set an example, at the end of the day… All we can really do is steward them. And their gifts. Protect them, nurture them, love them, teach them what we think we know… and let them curate what becomes theirs. Because, for reasons I can’t prove and will never fully understand… they chose us. With all our faults and shortcomings and unanswered questions, they decided WE would be the perfect obstacle course and guardian of their soul’s evolution. And all we can do… is the best we can do. Sending love to all the parents out there who are really, really trying ❤️

We were gifted a magical experience, one I’m still processing - and might be for the rest of my life. The kids were rock stars, my friends became brothers, and despite all the travel and time zone crossing and early-morning alarms, I feel re-charged. I’d anticipated a metaphysical element to the trip, but I was caught off-gaurd at just how deeply I felt the spiritual resonance of all these temples. I mean, they are “temples”, after all (duh), but whatever assumptions I had about these otherworldly structures being “antiquities” faded as soon as I stepped into them. These were holy places, built to connect to the divine as best they understood it at the time. I left with reverence and awe - my eyes, heart, and soul expanded. Deepest thanks to everyone who made it possible. @matiasgustavodestefano #travel #travelwithkids #spirituality #spiritualawakenings

The kids were rock stars, my friends became brothers, and despite all the travel and time zone crossing and early-morning alarms, I feel re-charged. I’d anticipated a metaphysical element to the trip, but I was caught off-gaurd at just how deeply I felt the spiritual resonance of all these temples. I mean, they are “temples”, after all (duh), but whatever assumptions I had about these otherworldly structures being “antiquities” faded as soon as I stepped into them. These were holy places, built to connect to the divine as best they understood it at the time. I left with reverence and awe - my eyes, heart, and soul expanded. Deepest thanks to everyone who made it possible. @matiasgustavodestefano #travel #travelwithkids #spirituality #spiritualawakenings
