Émely Steegstra-Hendrix
Émely is a Switzerland-based lifestyle coach, trained chef, and urban gardening mentor who empowers busy professionals to grow nutrient-rich food in the smallest of spaces. After being diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer, she built a tiny 4×2-foot rooftop garden that not only sustained her health during 17 months of chemotherapy but also inspired her signature “Small Space, Big Harvest” method. A sixth-generation chef, Émely blends her culinary background with mindful living, teaching others how to cultivate wellness from soil to plate. She is also the founder of Penn and Puzzle, a publishing brand dedicated to creating joy through mindful creativity.
