reborn
Given new life
Reborn means born again—brought back to life, renewed, or transformed.
The word usually describes spiritual or metaphorical renewal rather than literal rebirth: She felt reborn after leaving the toxic relationship.
Someone reborn has undergone profound change, emerging as if a different person: a reborn optimist, reborn as an artist.
