How founders lose authenticity after raising capital

My co-founder and I raised a Series A six months ago and ever since then we've been performing this version of ourselves for investors and employees that isn't really us, and now I don't know which decisions are coming from our actual judgment versus what we think we're supposed to do. We used to argue productively and now we just nod along with each other and I'm worried we're losing our edge.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Success has created external pressures that are corrupting the internal decision-making process that originally generated that success.
