My business partner and I have spent fifteen years building something we're proud of, but we've never talked about what happens when one of us wants out or dies, and now we're both in our sixties watching our peers retire while we can't figure out how to step back without destroying what we made. We keep circling around the conversation but never actually having it.
More people experience this than they realize.
Two people who've built something together are paralyzed by the gap between their vision of legacy and the reality of letting go.
“Where Are You with Work as legacy — when the work outlasts you?”
