In any relationship, one of the clearest indicators of its strength is consistency—showing up, supporting one another, and truly listening.

Because real relationships require effort.

But not everyone is built for that.

In this episode of Fortify the City, Sadé Graham | The Cultural Activist breaks down the difference between genuine connections and surface-level relationships.

Because many people will walk alongside you—until it no longer benefits them.

And when the hype fades, so do they.

This conversation highlights the reality of “user” relationships, fake friendships, and the importance of discernment when it comes to who you allow into your space.

Because not everyone around you is for you.

Some are there for what you have, what you represent, or what they can gain.

And once that’s gone—they’re gone too.

The question is:

Can your relationships withstand more than just convenience?

Take a listen.
