146. Esther Perel: Love in War

In this deeply intimate collaboration with beloved therapist Esther Perel, she dives deep in a couples therapy session with a Ukrainian couple torn apart by the war.

The wife is compelled to leave the country for the sake of her youngest son; the husband and older son are compelled to stay in the warzone for the sake of their country.

Miraculously, even amid unthinkable loss – and maybe especially amid unthinkable loss – love and connection are unrelenting.

Love does impossible things.
