A Conversation with Émely Steegstra-Hendrix
Catching up on another episode with Émely — a Switzerland-based lifestyle coach, trained chef, and urban gardening mentor — who turned her battle with stage 3 breast cancer into a story of healing, growth, and purpose. From building a 4×2-foot rooftop garden during chemotherapy to creating her Small Space, Big Harvest method, Émely shares how growing her own food became both a survival tool and a source of joy.
In this inspiring conversation with host Michael Peres (Mikey Peres), Émely opens up about how mindful gardening helped her stay strong through treatment, why she believes “food is medicine,” and how even the tiniest space can yield big transformation.
In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why nutrient-dense, homegrown food became her ultimate healing strategy.
• How her chef’s background and health journey inspired her to teach others.
