When co-founders disagree on employee equity distribution

My startup co-founder and I committed to giving employees equity from the beginning, but now we're at the point where we need to decide actual percentages and she wants to be more conservative while I think we should be more generous. We've been having this conversation in circles for months and our employees are starting to ask questions about timeline.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Shared values about worker ownership are colliding with different approaches to financial risk and control.
