Are You Burned Out In Your Relationship?

In my last video,

I talked to you about burnout, but I was primarily talking about burnout in your work, because that’s the classic condition that seems to affect most people.

I hope you’ll watch this video on burnout in your relationship, because I’ll tell you from personal experience, it’s the worst.

  • Do you feel unappreciated?
  • Do you feel like whatever you do, it’s not enough? And that it’s probably never going to be enough?
  • Do you feel hopeless?

Like I said, when a relationship goes into burnout it’s the worst and I hope this video helps, or please forward it to someone where it might be of help.

If you’re feeling burned out in your relationship, give us a call and let us help you. Do you want to save your relationship? If there’s even a glimmer of hope, it’s worth saving, both for you and for your children. Please connect with us now.

Call us at (928) 204-5988 or request a call and one of our Soul Guides will call you. They’ll connect with you (or both of you if it’s a couple) and custom design a retreat that will take you from where you are to where you want to be.

Josh and Jen say their Couples Retreat was “the most amazing experience of our lives and as a couple. We feel like we are on fire!”

“This was probably the most amazing experience we have had in our lives and definitely as a couple. We came out of the adventure much closer and with a renewed sense of direction. We feel like we are on fire! Our lives have changed forever because of our Soul Adventure and it was just the boost we needed to grow in marriage and in life. We have a whole new perspective on our lives.”
~ Josh & Jen B. 

Did you know Sedona Soul Adventures was named “Best of Sedona”
for Retreats for 2020, 2021 & 2022,
“Best Marriage Retreats in the US” 2015-2023 and
one of the “11 Best Couples Retreats Around the World”
by Bride’s Magazine in 2022? We were recently named one of Global Radiance Review’s “20 Most Trustworthy Companies of 2023”

It’s because what we do gets results – call us now, let us help. As I always say, if you knew what could happen, you’d be calling right now.

What area of your life do you need help with most right now…

Your relationship?
Finding your life purpose?
Loss of a loved one?
Healing & pampering?
Or is it something else?

Because we’re here for you – and we’re even open on Sunday!

Remember, there’s no cost or obligation to speak with a Soul Guide and have them custom-design the perfect retreat just for you in Sedona or At Home.

SSA Named to Inc 5000 Fastest Growing Companies — And Why This Happened

I am so happy to announce that this past week Sedona Soul Adventures was named to the Inc. 5000 List of Fastest Growing Private Companies in the US for 2023. Other companies who have received this honor in the past include Bill Gates when he was at Microsoft, Mark Cuban, Jenny Craig, Dell, Domino’s Pizza, Pandora, LinkedIn, Zillow and many others. Wow!

We hit the list in 2019, so to hit it again after 4 years, is just amazing! I feel so blessed and I’m so grateful to our incredible practitioners and my amazing staff.

It’s mind blowing to me to think that I started all of this over 21 years ago in my living room and to see what it’s become – 18 staff members and over 70 practitioners – it’s mind boggling.

And since we first made the list in 2019, we even weathered the pandemic. It’s truly humbling.

But the best part is our wonderful clients. We’ve served over 10,000 people, which is kind of amazing when you realize we do all this one person (or couple) at a time.

This is so cool. I found this 5-star review from when we hit the list in 2019:

And all of this has happened because this works – and it works in such an (almost) unbelievable way.

It’s because of our unique approach and our Proven Process. All of the retreats are custom designed for each individual or couple. The retreats aren’t cookie cutter.

We spend a lot of time really talking to people before they come to Sedona (or start a virtual retreat), to really get an idea of what’s happening and what they want to have happen, and then we custom design the retreat based on their needs and desires. We work with a network of over 70 of Sedona’s most advanced and experienced healers, and our clients work with them in private one-on-one (or two-on-one) sessions, not in groups. We’re taking people from where they are to where they want to be.

I’m still amazed at what happens even after 21 years and all these thousands of people!

And the most important thing for me is that these are real and lasting changes. Not a week goes by where I don’t get an email or message from someone who came here last year, or 10 years ago, who says something like, “Sedona Soul Adventures changed my life” or “Sedona Soul Adventures saved our marriage.”

Most of you know I was a divorce attorney in Omaha, Nebraska for over 20 years until I came to Sedona for the first time in 1999. At the time, every part of my life was a mess. I had read a zillion books, I had gone to a ton of workshops and seminars, I even did years of therapy and nothing really made a big difference in my life.

I thought my trip to Sedona was going to just be 3 days of rest, but instead, I did one session (with Ranjita, who is still one of our most beloved practitioners) and in that session, I got the message I had to change my life.

Little did I know what would come out of that one session!

I went back to Omaha, closed my law practice and started coming to Sedona for months at a time, working with different practitioners, doing my own personal healing. (The joke at the office is that my Soul Adventure took 3 years – everyone else does it in 3 or 4 days!)

I finally discovered what worked – doing sessions one-on-one with these amazing practitioners in private sessions, where they were taking me from where I was to where I wanted to be. It changed everything for me.

I moved to Sedona and started Sedona Soul Adventures because I wanted other people to be able to experience the same incredible transformations that changed my life.

People come to us burned out, stressed out, not knowing their purpose and they leave here feeling connected and ready to live their purpose to the fullest.

Couples come to us wanting to reignite the spark or on the verge of divorce, and everything gets turned around (one couple told us, “After our Soul Adventure, we feel like we are on fire!”). And after divorcing people for over 20 years, it’s really gratifying to now have spent over 21years helping them stay together!

Again, I’m so grateful. A special thank you to my wonderful husband, Richard, who has become such a huge part of my life and of Sedona Soul Adventures. To be able to do this life’s work and now to be able to do it with my beloved soul mate, is such a huge blessing.

So let me reach out to you. If you haven’t done a Soul Adventure yet, please think about it. We have so many people who come and say, “I’ve been wanting to do this for years.” What’s it going to take to get you to make the decision?

Or if you’re one of our beloved grads, is it time for a tune-up?

What’s happening with you? Are you living the life of your dreams? Does your relationship feed you and nurture you and add to your happiness every single day? If not, something is off.

I started all this 21 years ago because I believe that happiness, peace, satisfaction, abundance and joy are our natural birthright.

When we’re in connection on all levels – physical, mental, emotional and spiritual – every part of our life is smooth and happy. Stuff happens, but when we’re operating in connection we can more easily roll with the punches, understanding the underlying truth that “All is Well” and “Everything Is Happening As It Should Be” (all the stuff I talk about in my book, The Journey To Happy — How Embracing The Concept That Nothing Is Wrong Can Transform Your Life).

Most people don’t feel that way because they are disconnected on one or more of the levels (physical, mental, emotional and spiritual). What they don’t realize is that the stuff that’s causing that disconnect are just blocks and gunk that can be moved and lifted up and out. Once that happens, you can come back into connection and stay there.

And that’s what we’re masters at – figuring out the blocks and gunk, lifting them up and out, utilizing processes to bring you back into connection and giving you tools and continuing support so that you not only maintain, but continue to deepen all these transformations after you go home. That’s why our Proven Process works – and works in such amazing ways.

If your life or relationship isn’t all that you want it to be, please give us a call. Speak with one of our amazing Soul Guides, they are so incredible and one of the secrets of our success. They will design the retreat that’s perfect for you (or both of you for a couple) to take your life (or your relationship) from where you are to where you want to be.

Are You Burned Out? Don’t Let It Kill You/My Confession

Those of you who have been with me for a long time know that my blogs typically reflect what is going on in my own life and right now – True Confession! – This week I found myself on the verge of burning myself out.

Most other people talk to you about how perfect their life is, but my life hasn’t been perfect lately.

We’re re-doing all of our organizational stuff here at Sedona Soul Adventures from top to bottom, we’re doing a new website, I’m handling all the details of the new Egypt trip that’s different from the ones before, I’m working on the next Peru trip, plus on the personal front, Richard’s father is in hospice in Austin and we spent all last week with him and it’s so sad, I love him so much.

This morning I got up and through my tears, I realized I had to start doing what I tell everyone else to do – I have to practice what I preach. I found this video I had done before on burnout and then I contacted one of my practitioners to do a session.

When I watched the video I was thinking, “This is so true, I need to send this to everyone,” so here it is.

We all talk about being burned out, like it’s a normal thing that happens all the time. But did you know that the World Health Organization has now recognized burnout as a legitimate condition that needs to be managed and treated?

It’s gotten so serious all around the world, that people are really starting to understand that this kind of stress is literally killing you. Watching this really helped me, I hope it will help you:

Are you feeling burned out? If so, you’ve got to do something about it — as the World Health Organization has recognized, this can kill you!

Burnout is different from stress, that’s why it’s so dangerous. This morning, I stopped crying, took a deep breath, did some tapping, and then I contacted one of my Practitioners to do a session. Moving that energy works.

So how about you? If you’re feeling burned out, taking drastic action could save your life.

Call us and speak with someone today. We’ll dig deep, finding out what’s at the root of your burnout – you probably think you know what it is, but after all these years of doing this work, I’ll tell you, it’s probably even deeper than you think. We’re masters at figuring that out, clearing it out and bringing you back in connection, joy, and happiness!

Anne says, “Before my Soul Adventure, I was completely burned out and feeling empty. After, I feel so healthy and so much happier.”

“Before my Soul Adventure, I had reached a point in my life that I was completely burned out and feeling empty, and everything took so much energy. I decided fairly quickly that I needed a spiritual retreat. I researched several places, including some a few hours from my home. From the website and after speaking with my Soul Guide, I knew Soul Adventures was where I needed to go. I went with an open mind. All the practitioners were amazing. I feel so healthy and so much happier after my experience. I love that I came home with tools to use. I look forward to my next Soul Adventure.” ~ Anne Q.

“I’m so unhappy, please tell me what to do” – Podcast with Former Oprah Producer and SSA Grad

The “Seeking Center” podcast is a wonderful podcast with lots of incredible information about spirituality and living your best life. It’s done by Robyn Miller Brecker, who was a producer for Oprah for over 10 years and Karen Loenser, who had her life changed a few years ago with a Sedona Soul Adventures retreat!

I was so thrilled and honored to be featured on their “Seeking Center” podcast and I have to say, we had a blast!

Seeking Center Podcast

The episode is titled, “The Adventure Your Soul Has Been Waiting For,” and as they say in their program notes:

Seeking Center Podcast Debra Stangl

“I’m so unhappy, please tell me what to do” – that was my prayer to God that started everything which led to the creation of Sedona Soul Adventures.

Karen also talked about how her Soul Adventure changed her life and I always love hearing that!

Listen to it here.

I hope you enjoy the podcast and if you want to have your life changed, give us a call.
