"Chocolate makes me feel excited."

"In every stage (of chocolate) it has a life of its own."

"I want people to experience joy when they eat our chocolate."

This week’s guest is Émely Steegstra-Hendrix. 

This story is the epitome of following what fulfills you in every which way, especially when you are faced with a serious illness. The energy you get from following your passion can truly heal you from the inside out. 

Émely has a long family legacy of female chefs. It wasn’t until she was faced with her own health challenges, that she became determined to find a way of growing her own vegetables while enjoying urban living.

Émely is the founder of  Easy Urban Gardening-system, specifically designed for raised beds or containers on balconies and terraces in town, to help city dwellers enjoy fresh harvested vegetables without the exhaustive work. Of course combined with inspiration and guidance on how to turn those veggies in delicious, fresh home-made meals.She now passes on her family legacy in food, cooking, flavour combinations and fresh ingredients.

My favourite Émely quotes:

"Being unhappy in a job and frustrated of not being able to fully bloom, and fully contribute with all the talents that I have, was kinda necessary for me to realize that there was this other thing in life, which is called food and cooking..that was my passion, that was meant for me to do." 

"Gardening is way broader than just healthy greens on your plate."

"Starting a garden...is not only about your physical health but it's also a lot about your mental health and general well being."

My Favourite Portia Quotes:

"It all just factors in and works out some, and builds up and leads up to that thing where you're just becoming the better version of yourself."

My FIRST PODCAST GUEST is Gloria Eid!! She's a coach, mentor and writer but that wasn't always the case. We find out what taking a career pause, before the pandemic, looks like, and how it can lead to curiosity to uncover the best of you.  

My favourite Gloria quotes: 

"The soul, that does not speak in words, was motioning me off the ladder I never truly wanted to climb." 

"My value in this world exists not because of what I do, but simply because of what I am." 

"I know there is no real destination, it's just the journey and if you stay present to every moment, every emotion, every whisper and pay attention to what does excites your spirit, you will ultimately be led to expressing your purpose, to feeling fulfilled, and it's likely not gonna look like the way you had envisioned." 

Thank you for your time! Thank you for your energy! I appreciate YOU!!
