When business partners disagree on scaling with investors vs maintaining company values

My cofounder and I bootstrapped this company together but now that we're scaling, they want to take on investors and I'm worried we'll lose the values-driven culture we built, but I also don't want to hold us back from growth. We keep having the same circular conversation about what success actually means to us.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Two people who built something together now face incompatible visions of what it should become, each seeing the other's path as a betrayal of their original partnership.
