Periagoge
Scenario

When business partners have unequal effort but equal ownership

My business partner and I have been splitting everything 50/50 for two years but now she's putting in maybe 30% of the work while I'm burning out trying to keep us afloat and we both pretend this isn't happening. I think she knows I know but we've built this whole dynamic around avoiding conflict and I don't know how to break it without breaking us.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

You've created a system where honesty about contribution feels more dangerous than the slow collapse of trust and resentment.
