In this emotionally rich and layered episode, Ilona brings a deeply personal topic to the center: the loss of a close friend and the fear of losing another — due to painful political disagreements. What begins as a story about differing views on vaccination and the war in Ukraine soon reveals a more subtle layer — the grief of disconnection, the longing for closeness, and the silence that grows when words are no longer spoken.In a carefully guided dialogue with psychologists Max and Ellen, Ilona explores the inner tension between respecting another’s lived experience and facing her own anger, anxiety, and resistance. Can we place friendship above our personal beliefs? And what can we do when political views stand in the way of love?
Max introduces the concept of a “shared edge” — a mutual silence or hesitation that prevents people from expressing what truly matters. Together, they show that even strong relationships often fall apart not because of differing opinions, but because of the things left unsaid. Through honest dialogue, vulnerability, humor, and emotional depth, Ilona reconnects with what truly matters — the heart-to-heart bond that still lives and wants to survive, even in a polarized world.
This is an episode about friendship, historical guilt, national identity, emotional courage, and the transformative power of words that remained unspoken for too long.
