Katherine Wolf is a survivor, communicator, and advocate. Originally from the South, she met her husband, Jay, in college. The 22-year-old couple married and moved to Los Angeles, where Jay was pursuing a law degree and Wolf began modeling. Six months after their son James was born in 2007, at the age of 26, Wolf suffered a massive and catastrophic brain stem stroke that nearly ended her life. After a sixteen-hour brain surgery, forty days in the ICU, a year in neuro rehab, and eleven operations, she continues her recovery to this day. Wolf's life was saved but forever changed, as was the couple's marriage. Seven years after the stroke, the couple welcomed their second miracle son, John, into their lives.

Wolf is a charismatic and dynamic force that brings humor and joy to all she meets. The two are speakers, authors, and founders of the non-profit ministry Hope Heals. They also co-authored “HOPE HEALS,” the account of her near death and their new life, told from both of their perspectives. Their second book, “SUFFER STRONG: How to Survive Anything by Redefining Everything” was released in February 2020. The family resides in Atlanta, Georgia.
