About Leisa

I’m a teacher. A creative engineer. A musician. A writer. Lover of beauty. An artist. I can’t help not being these things. I have a passion for intentional and authentic living with the end in mind. That is, I believe in “living like you were dying” as the song goes.

Since a little girl, I’ve always had mortality in the back of my mind. It used to frighten me (as it does most people) but even before my journey with cancer, I started growing towards acceptance, peace, and the sacredness of death. Then recently I learned there’s an ancient philosophy called Memento Mori. It felt so good to have a name for it… and that I wasn’t as freakish as I thought I might be!

Surviving breast cancer, coming to a certain age, and having grandchildren to live on after me gives me the motivation to teach the wisdom I’ve grown into and help other people be more intentional at living so their death is as good a one as it can be. Written essays and podcast episodes will be under this umbrella, but the subject matter won’t be all morbid.
