When a business partner's personal credit risk threatens shared ventures

My business partner's personal spending habits are getting more erratic and I'm worried it's going to affect our company's creditworthiness since we're both guarantors on our business loans, but I don't know how to bring up someone's personal financial behavior without crossing a line. The business is at risk but it feels like none of my business.
