Paltrow and her friend and trainer Tracy Anderson become life coaches and interviewers as they meet and are tearily touched by women who have overcome adversity.
“We’re inspired by women who have restarted their lives using health and fitness,” the 40-year-old film star says in the Restart Project promotional clip.
In the one-minute video, Gwyneth is seen embracing women after hearing their stories while giving sympathetic looks, and crying “you’re amazing” through tears.
Anderson describes the project as an opportunity to share the stories of women “who are incredible examples for other people”.
“They’re not focused on getting into their skinny jeans. They’re focused on healing themselves from the inside out,” the A-list trainer says.
The 38-year-old trainer is also seen comforting guests as they are brought to tears after sharing their stories.
The restart project, which will air on AOL on is a new concept for the celebrity pair who have previously collaborated in opening a blow dry bar in LA and have long been supporters of each other’s business endeavours.
