How to navigate disability identity differences in business partnerships

My business partner doesn't identify as disabled even though they have accommodations, and I'm openly disabled and active in disability culture - it's creating weird dynamics with clients and in our marketing where we're not aligned on how visible disability should be in our brand. We've been avoiding talking about it directly but it keeps coming up in subtle ways.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Partners with different relationships to disability identity are struggling to align their professional representation and brand messaging.
