All I remember was holding on to Mickey Mouse really tight knowing that things were going to change and that life was never going to be the same again. I started RBU after many years of learning who I am.  Most importantly accepting who I am fully!  I hope that you can embark on the journey with me and allow for all those folds of life to unfold into lessons of self-discovery."

Start at the Beginning

LOW ENERGY DOES NOT FEEL GOOD We’ve all been there – pressing the snooze button enough times to make you late, fighting to stay awake mid-afternoon, maybe even arriving at a destination and thinking “wow, I barely remember driving here.” I know I’m not alone in this. Low energy is a m

Putting Yourself Into Someone Else's Shoes

There are many sayings in our culture that share the same meaning: “put yourself in their shoes,” “look at the situation through someone else’s eyes,” or even “one man’s trash is another’s treasure.” We’ve all heard these so many times, they go right over our heads and are quickly forgotten.

Empathy can it really happen?

Chilean Food: El Completo

Chilean Food: El Completo

Boy, What can I say about Chilean food. Living close to almost the center of what is considered one of the most important places, New York, there is almost nowhere that distinguishes Chilean food. Ummmmm How Can That Be? There are all kinds of south and center American food, but the Chileans we are zero in that story. Not even in the busiest streets of New York can you find authentic Chilean…
