In January 2019, at age 39, Judy Kim Cage survived a massive hemorrhagic stroke caused by Moyamoya Syndrome—a rare condition affecting just 3.5 people per million. Hemorrhagic strokes account for only 15% of strokes but 40% of stroke deaths, and she was given a 26.7% chance of surviving in five years. Against all odds, Judy was walking within two months and back to work in six. Now approaching her seven-year survival milestone, she has rebuilt a thriving life, inspiring many through her journey of resilience, self-advocacy, and transformation. Her upcoming book, SUPERSURVIVOR, shares her story and lessons on overcoming trauma and redefining success.
