When business partnerships strain lifelong friendships

My best friend and I started a business together three years ago and now we disagree on everything — how fast to grow, whether to take on debt, what our partnership even means. We're both avoiding the conversation about whether this is still working because we're terrified of losing the friendship.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Two people are discovering that shared dreams can become competing visions, and the fear of loss is preventing the honesty that might save both the business and the friendship.
