Through a journey that will have listeners redefining their own lives, Iris leaves her audience wondering where the other half of their soul may be, if they’ve already found it - and what it means to truly love someone. As anyone who has met “the one” knows, the moment is so perfect, they usually can’t even put it into words.

Einsamkeit und Isolation, exzessiver Individualismus und Interessenegoismus nehmen zu. Wie kann persönliche Zerrissenheit heilen? Was tun angesichts der Gleichgültigkeit gegenüber dem Gemeinwohl?
