That's usually the case with early start-up entrepreneurs wherein every one struggles to create a "Happy Equity Index" to be able to decide the right proportion of equity division.
In your case, it seems there are too many stakeholders with diverse contribution to the business. Hence, all of you should give some time to the business to flourish than deciding equity division in haste. Though I'm not a supporter of promoting something on Clarity, I'd like to share "Happy Equity Index" write up for your perusal.
