You Get What You ARE, Not What You Want; How to Start Getting What You Want in Every Area of Your Life
I used to make life so hard for myself.
For so many years I was so unhappy. I was frustrated, felt stuck, and just unhappy with everything. I look back on that now and I feel so sorry for that earlier version of me. I was so afraid that I would never get what I wanted, and that made me angry, resentful, and just not a lot of fun to be around.
Here is the truth that I finally learned:
You get what you ARE, not what you want
If you’re feeling love, you bring in more love (for yourself and everyone else).
If you’re feeling abundant, you bring in more abundance.
If you’re feeling healthy, you bring in more good health.
Sub-category: If you’re feeling fat, you can go on every diet in the world and exercise like a crazy person – you’ll lose some weight for a little while but it will come back (plus more) because you think and feel like you’re a fat person. (Can you tell I have some personal experience with this one? – see below).
If you think there are no good men (or women) out there, that all the good ones have been taken, that all men (or women) cheat, that you’ll never find true love, that’s what you’re going to get.
I hesitate to call this what it is, which is the Law of Attraction. So many people seem to have negative thoughts about the Law of Attraction, mainly “it doesn’t work.” They saw that movie The Secret many years ago and they seem to think the Law of Attraction means if I tell the Universe what I want enough times, the Universe will deliver.
Well, that’s not how it works. That’s why it’s not working for you, because you’re not obeying the Law.
The Universe gives you what you ARE, what you’re thinking about, what you’re talking about, but especially WHAT YOU’RE FEELING.
And that’s the great news here! It’s all so simple! It’s just about flipping the switch into feeling better. And it’s much easier than you think.
In fact, that’s the real secret. Coming into that feeling space of ease and flow.
Here’s what happened for me (which is why I KNOW this stuff works!):
- I went from hating my work (as a divorce attorney) to doing the work of my dreams with Sedona Soul Adventures.
- When I came to Sedona the first time, I had been in debt for $50,000 for over 5 years; within 2 weeks of coming here, $50,000 suddenly fell out of the sky when I went into the FEELING SPACE of surrender, acceptance, and gratitude.
- After hating my body and struggling with my weight since the age of 12 (and doing every crazy diet and brutal exercising), when I finally went into the FEELING SPACE of loving my body, I released over 40 pounds in 5 weeks without diet or exercise. Here is my before and after photo:

And I now eat and drink whatever I want, whenever I want – and have done so for over 10 years.
- When I started BELIEVING that I could have a fabulous relationship, I manifested the man of my dreams and we were married over 5 years ago surrounded by the red rocks of Sedona and by family and friends.

I tell all these stories in greater detail in my book, The Journey To Happy – How Embracing The Concept That Nothing Is Wrong Can Transform Your Life.
You can get it on Amazon and now the audio version is available on Audible.
The secret is in the subtitle. When you finally figure out that nothing is wrong, that everything is happening for a reason and you stop fighting and resisting everything and start going with the flow of life, that’s when everything starts to work.
It’s simple, but it’s not necessarily easy. Most people aren’t able to just flip the switch just by having that information. I wasn’t able to — I was 47 years old when I came to Sedona the first time. And then I spent the next three years coming here for a month at a time doing my own personal healing work.
This was before Sedona Soul Adventures, so of course I didn’t have any help or guidance, I just kept on doing sessions with the different Practitioners I was finding here. Some were phenomenal, some were not helpful at all and some were just so-so.
I had a lot of wounds, fears and energetic blocks to deal with. But doing this work eventually brought me into this knowing, this understanding that it is my own energy that is bringing me everything in my life, both the good and what some would call “the bad.” But when you understand how all this works, it’s not “bad,” it’s just showing me how I’m vibrating and the good news is, I can change that!
That’s the reason I started Sedona Soul Adventures. And that’s why our retreats are so effective. We take you from where you are to where you want to be, removing the blocks, healing the wounds, moving the energy. Over these past 21 years, I just continue to be amazed at what happens.
So if it’s true that you get what you are, rather than what you want, WHAT ARE YOU?
- Are you blissfully happy?
- Do you feel connected?
- Do you feel healthy in your body?
- Do you love your body?
- Do you love yourself?
- Do you love your work?
- Do you feel abundant?
- Is your relationship happy, harmonious and juicy?
If you didn’t answer a resounding yes to all of these, the next question is: Why not?
What needs to happen for you to feel all of these things and have everything you want in your life?
The answer is finding and releasing the blocks and the wounds, and bringing you into connection on all the levels – physical, mental, emotional and spiritual. That brings you into the ease and flow of life. It flips the switch and makes everything easy, effortless and joyful.

“My trip to Peru was a life altering experience thanks to the efforts of Debra as well as an amazing group of sacred travelers. The universe is such a powerful place. I find it truly amazing how much coordination and dedication it takes to have so many pieces come together to create such a perfect moment in my life. I feel blessed to have been a part of that moment in time as it opened a whole new portal in my life. I cannot begin to express my gratitude. This is an excerpt of an email I sent to one of my best friend after the trip: I laughed. I cried. I was awed. I experienced new dimensions. I felt love and gave love. My gratitude is endless.
I feel fortunate to have experienced the Andes Mountains and people. My heart has expanded to new levels. I am so open and the feeling is other worldly. I have made amazing friends. The group, the leaders and the guide were all amazing teachers. I cannot wait to share everything with you.”
