By all appearances, Zainab Salbi has had an impressive life. Growing up as the daughter of Saddam Hussein’s personal pilot, she eventually became a celebrated humanitarian and activist. Yet, as she was helping thousands of women in war-torn countries, Salbi’s personal life was coming to a crisis. In Freedom Is an Inside Job, Salbi explores her own riveting journey to wholeness - and how embarking on such a journey enables each of us to create the world we want to live in. After years of working as a successful CEO and change-maker, Salbi realized that if she wanted to confront and heal the shadows of the world, she needed to face her own shadows first.

Important message, long delivery
Revisado: 09-22-20
Ms. Salbi has an important message and a valuable perspective in light of her history, but her writing becomes redundant. I imagine it would seem even more redundant without the expression in her voice. I would rather see her spread her message in shorter formats such as magazine articles.

She was known to the world as Emily Doe when she stunned millions with a letter. Brock Turner had been sentenced to just six months in county jail after he was found sexually assaulting her on Stanford's campus. Her victim impact statement was posted on BuzzFeed, where it instantly went viral. Now, she reclaims her identity to tell her story of trauma, transcendence, and the power of words.

As I'd hoped
Revisado: 10-29-19
I opened an Audible account in order to listen to this author and I'm glad I did. Her writing is authentic, poignant, and smooth at the same time. I loved learning about her life, hearing her account of the worst day and days of her life, and hearing her perspective in the aftermath. Like other readers, I was appalled by the additional information about her court experiences. So many women choose not to go through with this process and I just wish it was friendlier. I wish Chanel was able to accomplish some from of restitution in addition to verdicts on the individual charges. I agree with her that the goal was not reached. She had a fairly open and shut case, a great DA, and great support and still had a hellish experience. I love that she paints a picture of her humanness in contrast to the dehumanizing justice system. I'm definitely encouraged by her growth (and her willingness to grow) and can only hope that those who need it (which is pretty much everyone) will benefit from this also.
