Redefined explores what happens when life's biggest challenges lead us on a transformative search for what matters most. After recently facing a near-death experience, renowned humanitarian and author Zainab Salbi has been on a quest to understand the connection between who we have been and who we must become. As Zainab continues her own vulnerable search, evaluating and re-evaluating matters of her own identity, she's reaching out to open-minded guests in this series of courageous, big-hearted conversations to ask questions about how we draw our inner maps, and how to approach and perpetuate meaningful, intentional change. Redefined aims to uncover the hidden gifts that emerge from adversity, to discover the power of reinvention, and to learn from one another--establishing a sense of community so even our most intimate transformations never have to be experienced alone.
