Episode Details

Emilia Clarke, Game of Thrones star, revealed she survived two brain hemorrhages in her twenties—moments she called “cheating death”—that nearly ended her acting career. After believing she’d done something wrong to be alive and fearing permanent damage to her talent, she founded SameYou in 2019 to support brain injury survivors, many of whom feel isolated in their recovery. Despite the trauma, she kept working, even filming Game of Thrones shortly after her first bleed, and went on to earn four Emmys and star in major films—all while reflecting on how tough those early years were, fifteen years later.
