Lise Leroux

Being told you have six months to live, again and again, changes how you use a Tuesday afternoon.

I’m Lise Leroux, writer, wedding officiant, and training consultant. My work explores relationships, connection, and what happens when you pay close attention to the people in front of you. More about me →

Beyond Happily Ever After:
Relationship Strategies You Don’t Need… Yet

Hybrid memoir-led nonfiction · 80,000 words

A book for couples whose relationships are genuinely thriving, and who want to keep them that way. Built from forty years of living under a terminal diagnosis, hundreds of ceremonies, and one unexpected landing on a sheep.

Writing is where everything I do comes together: the ceremonies, the training rooms, the relationships, the close calls.
