Turn Your Co-Founder Relationship Into Your Competitive Advantage
The startup journey tests every partnership. Let's make sure yours thrives under pressure.
Your Biggest Risk Isn't Just Runway. It's Relational Breakdown.
Research shows 65% of startups fail due to co-founder conflict. The pressure, pace, and complexity of startup life can turn your greatest asset into your biggest liability.
But it doesn't have to be this way.
Strong co-founder relationships become competitive advantages. They make better decisions faster, weather crises together, and scale with clarity and trust.
This is where you have the conversations you actually need to have - before the tension builds, before burnout sets in, before silence becomes your default.
What I offer
Sparring & Mediation
for Co-Founder Teams
A confidential, high-impact container for you and your co-founder(s) to realign, reconnect, and co-lead with unshakeable clarity.
What's included:
60-minute sessions (bi-weekly or monthly)
Space for honest, courageous conversations
Somatic + systemic guidance for deep insight and relational rewiring
Optional 1:1 sessions for personal processing
Support with high-stakes decisions, vision alignment, emotional patterns
Whether you’re preventing problems or working through them, this is where the real work happens.
You and your co-founder(s) are navigating high stakes and hard decisions — but there’s rarely time to reflect or reset.
One (or both) of you feels emotionally maxed out or disconnected.
Communication is strained, especially under pressure.
You're stuck in loops of resentment, blame, or avoidance.
You've hit a growth ceiling and friction is blocking momentum.
You still care — but something is off, and you don’t know how to move forward.
You simply want to understand each other better and build a lasting, trust-based relationship.
Is This You?
“The best time to work on your co-founder relationship is before you need to.
The second best time is now.”
What You Actually Want
True alignment.
Space to speak freely – and be heard.
Clarity on what’s actually going on beneath the surface.
A way forward that honors both your visions and strengths.
A co-founder partnership that feels like a resource, not a liability.
The co-founder relationship is one of the most emotionally complex, high-stakes relationships you'll ever navigate.
It deserves its own dedicated container – one built for truth, repair, and sustainable trust.
“Most founders spend more time with their co-founder than their spouse. Yet it's the one relationship they never invest in. Until it breaks everything.”
What You Can Expect
Whether you’re navigating a major transition, feeling stuck in your current role, or burning out under endless demands, this is your space to pause, assess, and realign.
Communication that works under pressure
Shared understanding of each other’s patterns and coping styles
A partnership that sustains
rapid growth
Decision-making that feels collaborative, not competitive
Leadership alignment
your entire team can feel
Rebuilt trust and genuine respect
What Co-Founder Teams Say
"My co-founder and I have completely different ways of dealing with stress, pressure, and the constant uncertainty. We avoided the hard conversations for months, not really making time for it but also thinking we were protecting the partnership by not addressing things.
Bianca's coaching is giving us a safe way to finally express what needs to be said and we learned that we came out so much stronger through this."
Sasha & Nawal, Series A Startup
"We started working with Bianca during our second funding round, when we realized my co-founder and I had fundamentally different approaches and visions for where to head. We were under massive pressure with money running out and couldn't seem to get aligned.
Bianca guided us powerfully to get more clarity. It helps us how she creates a space where difficult things can be said without immediate reactions or outbursts…that alone was transformative for us."
Co-Founders, Growth-Stage B2B SaaS
"We got referred to work with Bianca when we were in a big crisis where one co-founder left at a critical point. The coaching didn't just help us survive the transition, it gave us a lot of new insights and better understanding for each other.
We learned how to integrate our different strengths and work better together as the new management team now."
Co-Founders, Early Stage FinTech Company
