In this episode, we will explore a very critical subject essential to building vibrant black communities and that is the subject of "Friendships". We explore what real friends are, what friends should never be. We also explore the boundaries that should be established when you or your friend is in a relationship.

My hope is with this episode we each examine ourselves and do a personal assessment. “Do I measure up?” “Am I a good friend?” “Am I a bad friend?” “How can I be a better friend?” If we all ask these questions of ourselves this can help us be better people to one another.
