Some people don't need answers.
They need
space.
Space to slow down, breathe, and understand what’s really asking to be seen.

 I help individuals and organizations create more 
 balance, resilience, and wellbeing through personalized support, 
wellness experiences, workshops, and workplace wellbeing programs. 

My Story

Hello! :)

Nice to meet you.
I’m Renata — founder of The Universe Stuff.

My path hasn’t been linear, and it hasn’t been accidental. I began my professional life as an attorney, drawn to truth, structure, and helping people navigate complex situations. I cared deeply about advocacy and justice, but over time I realized that many of the struggles people face can’t be resolved only on the surface. Something deeper was always present — beneath thoughts, emotions, relationships, and the patterns we repeat without realizing why.

I’ve always believed in more than one way of understanding the world. I believe healing and transformation happen through awareness, reflection, connection, and intentional action. My work draws from both holistic perspectives and grounded practices that help people better understand themselves and navigate life with greater clarity. To me, healing begins when we bring consciousness to our thoughts, feelings, and the stories we carry, and when we remember that we are not broken — we are powerful, responsive, and capable of transformation.

Originally from Brazil, my life has been shaped by movement, curiosity, and a natural sensitivity to the unseen layers of experience. Over the years, my interest in spirituality evolved alongside a deep respect for grounded practices, quantum physics, and the idea that our inner world shapes how we experience reality. What fascinated me most was not the idea of being “healed” by someone else — but the realization that when people understand themselves more deeply, they gain the ability to change their own lives.

The Universe Stuff

As life unfolded, that understanding became impossible to ignore. I knew my work was no longer about guiding people through systems — it was about guiding them back to themselves.

That is how The Universe Stuff was born.

 

At first, my work centered on helping people create more awareness, balance, and wellbeing through personalized support. But something unexpected began to happen: clients wanted to take a piece of that experience home.

 

They asked for candles to support meditation, rituals to ground their days, blends to nourish the body, and objects that could quietly remind them to care for themselves beyond our time together.​​​

What I Do Today

Today, my work is centered on creating experiences that support wellbeing, self-awareness, and personal transformation.

I work with both individuals and organizations through personalized support, wellness experiences, workshops, and workplace wellbeing programs.

Some people come to this work seeking relief from stress, overwhelm, or burnout. Others are looking for greater balance, creativity, connection, or personal growth.

No matter where someone begins, the intention remains the same: creating space for meaningful change and helping people reconnect with themselves.

Philosophy

Across all of these expressions, the intention remains the same: to create spaces — physical or energetic — where people feel supported, curious, and gently invited back to themselves.

 

My approach is intuitive, grounded, and collaborative. I don’t believe in quick fixes or promises. I believe in awareness, balance, and allowing space for what wants to unfold.​

 

There are many ways to connect with this work — through a candle lit at home, a workshop shared with others, or a quiet session of reflection and healing.

You’re welcome to explore what resonates and leave the rest.​

Everyday Rituals

Alongside my service-based work, I continue to create thoughtfully crafted products designed to support moments of pause, reflection, and self-care.

From clean-burning soy candles to other ritual-inspired offerings, these products were born from the needs of my clients and a desire to bring the essence of this work into everyday life.

 

Each creation is intended to serve as a gentle reminder to slow down, reconnect with the present moment, and create space for wellbeing amidst the demands of daily life.
