App Permissions
What you allow different areas of your life to access. The boundaries between work, relationships, health, and identity.
Lily Cantor and the Private Equity Term Sheet
App Permissions are about what you allow different people and institutions to access — your decisions, your direction, your identity. The PE firm's term sheet was essentially asking for permission to control the company while barely paying for the privilege. Lily Cantor recognized that granting those permissions wasn't a funding solution, it was a handover. Walking away was her refusing to grant access to someone who hadn't earned it.
