Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?
- There’s someone who keeps taking and taking from me and never gives anything back, and I keep pouring in anyway
- When I negotiate I jump straight to my offer and try to claim my slice, and I suspect I’m leaving value on the table
- When I think about that hard chapter I swing between “it was pure loss” and “it was secretly a gift,” and neither one feels honest
- I’m good at the collaborative part — I help grow the deal and everyone’s warm — and then I’m so worried about seeming greedy that I walk away with the short end while they take most of what we built.
- It’s been long enough that I can quietly admit something in me has shifted since they died
