How to address creative autonomy in collaborative partnerships

My longtime collaborator and I are working on our most ambitious project yet, but they've started making creative decisions without consulting me and when I bring it up, they say they're just trying to maintain momentum. I think they're losing faith in our partnership but don't want to say it.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Trust erodes when collaborative boundaries shift without acknowledgment, leaving both parties navigating unstated fears about the partnership's future.
