Miami, Florida(Hexa PR Wire–October 18, 2025)–Émely Steegstra-Hendrix, Switzerland-based lifestyle coach, trained chef, and urban gardening mentor, joined The Michael Peres Podcast to discuss how small-space food growing supported her through stage 3 breast cancer and led to the Small Space, Big Harvest method. The episode reviewed a five-minute-a-day rooftop garden routine during chemotherapy, why nutrient-dense, homegrown food became central to recovery, and practical steps for beginners working with limited light, time, or square footage.
Émely outlined how culinary training informed crop selection and simple preparation, and shared starter frameworks—container basics, soil quality, successive planting, and mindful routines that make gardening sustainable. She emphasized accessible tools and habits that help city dwellers build resilience and enjoyment without specialized expertise.
