When mentor-mentee relationships face legacy and knowledge transfer decisions

My mentor and I have been developing this therapeutic approach together for a decade and now she's retiring, but she wants to be very selective about who we train in our methods while I think we should open-source everything before her knowledge is lost. We both care about the work continuing, but we have completely different ideas about how to protect its integrity.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Two people who've developed expertise together are struggling between protecting their life's work and making it accessible to future practitioners.
