When avoiding shared anxiety creates information asymmetry in partnerships

My co-founder handles all our investor relations and I've realized I've been deliberately staying uninformed so I don't have to feel anxious about our runway and fundraising timeline but this means I can't actually contribute to strategic decisions anymore. We both know I'm being willfully ignorant but we haven't talked about it because it's easier for both of us in the short term.
