When creative partnerships evolve beyond their original dynamic

My producing partner and I have been developing projects together for five years and we've built this reputation as a team, but lately I've been wanting to take on more director roles and she's been getting possessive about 'our' contacts and I can feel us starting to compete instead of collaborate but neither of us will say it out loud. We keep pitching ourselves as this unified creative duo while privately I'm wondering if we're holding each other back from what we actually want to become.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Two collaborators are growing in different directions but cannot acknowledge that their partnership structure may no longer serve their individual ambitions.
