Ra by Rashi

My Friend, My Co-Founder… My Biggest Mistake?

What happens when friendship meets business? Can trust survive money, ambition, ego, and disagreements?

On Ra By Rashi, Rashi Khanna sits down with Ritesh Singh — entrepreneur, author, strategic advisor, and investor — for a candid conversation about co-founder relationships and the challenges that can make or break a business.

Drawing from his book, The Silent Veto: Why Founders Drift, Startups Break, and How to Build Trust That Lasts, Ritesh shares insights on founder alignment, trust, difficult conversations, and the importance of building stronger business partnerships.

In this episode:

• Should you start a business with your best friend?
• How do money and ego affect partnerships?
• Why do co-founders drift apart?
• Can trust be rebuilt after a conflict?
• When should you repair a partnership — or walk away?

Because sometimes, the biggest business decision isn't what you build, but who you choose to build it with.
