When mentor relationships evolve beyond their original structure

My creative mentor and I have evolved into something more like peers over the past few years, but we still have the old dynamic where they give direction and I follow it, even though I now have strong opinions that conflict with theirs, and neither of us has acknowledged that the relationship has changed.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

The growth that the relationship enabled has outpaced the relationship's ability to contain and honor that growth.
