The Journey

Louder Than Before is the Unfiltered, Unapologetic, and Unbroken true story of Louise Lerminiaux, whose inheritance of a fatal gene sparked a fierce effort to rewrite her future. After spending years in fear of the impending 6 p.m. dinner roll call in a crumbling family home, Louise discovered her lifelong mission. From Canada to the United States, Costa Rica, Germany, and beyond, Louise continues to advocate for consistent, patient-focused care worldwide.

Through her lived experiences, she’s developed a powerful mission to redesign the modern medical system with an empathetic and ethical focus. Louise’s voice has become sought-after by healthcare organizations and academic institutions on an international scale. She doesn’t define her life simply by her experiences with the medical world, but also by a challenging genetic history that touches mental health and disease, and the realities of navigating corporate and social worlds as a woman. And yet, she only feels empowered by her background and her research to end mental health stigma and use her voice so that others in similar positions may also become Louder Than Before.
