This week on Give It To Me Strait, we’re talking about friendship — not the surface-level kind, but the deeper energy that defines our connections. As we get older, time feels more precious, and it matters who we choose to spend it with.

It’s not always about shared interests or common ground. Sometimes it’s about how someone makes you feel when you’re in the same room — the energy between you. We break down the difference between acquaintances, colleagues, and true friends; how to recognize the people who genuinely care for you versus those who are just around for convenience; and why investing in the right connections matters more than ever.

Because at the end of the day, friendship isn’t about who’s there for the good times — it’s about who shows up, consistently, with the right energy.
