Barefoot in Catt's bedroom, Halima shares all -- from her early years living in a refugee camp in Kenya, to becoming a UNICEF ambassador. She discusses being the first woman to wear a hijab in the Miss Minnesota USA pageant, and how being discovered there launched her career as an international model. Since then, you may have spotted Halima walking the runway at fashion week, gracing the cover of magazines like Allure and British Vogue, and rocking an array of beautiful burkinis in Sports Illustrated's swimsuit edition. 

Also in this episode, Catt talks about her own life-changing trip to Kenya that she embarked on with her mother's charity.
