Wellness Retreats for Burnout Recovery & Reconnecting with Joy
Holistic, group-based experiences that restore emotional well-being and guide you toward a grounded, sustainable path forward.
Hey there…
I invite you to consider your answers to these questions:
Do you identify as an ambitious, high-achieving professional who cares deeply for others- like your family, students, patients, clients, employees, or neighbors?
Do you feel overwhelmed by personal responsibilities or stuck in an exhausting career that looks good on paper but leaves you unfulfilled?
Have you tried to “fix” your burnout with “all the things”- morning routines, meditations, and movement; self-care, self-help, and self-sabotage- only to find minimal relief?
If you answered “yes” to any of these… then I’d love to help you reignite your zest for life and restore emotional balance.
You Weren’t Meant to Burn Out. There’s a Better Way Forward
Community support can be incredibly powerful during times of stress and transition. While traditional mental health treatment can be deeply beneficial, it isn't always the right- or only- path for everyone. And for some, treatments like therapy and meds alone may not fully address the need for connection, regulation, or purpose.
That’s where our group programs come in. Led by board certified wellness professionals and and accessible from anywhere in the world, our offerings range from virtual group support to in-person wellness retreats. These experiences are designed to restore emotional well-being, rekindle joy, and give you sustainable skills to move toward fulfillment in both your work and your life.

What’s Included?
These wellness retreats are more than a getaway—they’re a structured, supportive experience designed for real burnout recovery.
Each retreat blends the healing power of community with daily coaching, research-backed education, and meaningful action steps that help you restore your well-being and reclaim your joy
1. Community + Connection
Burnout can feel lonely, especially when shame and guilt make it hard to talk about. In this retreat, you’ll be surrounded by a small group of women who understand what you’re carrying and can hold space for it—without judgment. The simple act of being witnessed, supported, and reminded you’re not alone can be profoundly transformative.
2. Cultural Immersion
Experience the warmth, rhythm, and hospitality of Portuguese culture, where slowing down is not indulgence—it’s a way of life. Together, we’ll explore local food, landscape, and daily rituals that remind the body how to breathe again.
4. Coaching + Workshops
Each day includes guided workshops and group coaching sessions designed to help you understand the real causes of burnout (hint: it’s not personal failure). Sessions build on each other and offer clear, practical tools you can use immediately—from nervous system regulation practices to boundary-setting strategies and communication support. Expect to leave not only with insight, but with a sustainable recovery plan and a renewed sense of control over your life.
3. Curated Activities, Meals, and Excursions
Each day includes thoughtfully designed opportunities to reignite your energy, connect with others, and experience the beauty of Portugal with intention. From guided morning practices to meaningful cultural excursions and shared meals, every element is chosen to support nervous system regulation, joyful connection, and deep replenishment. Expect a balance of reflection, movement, exploration, and rest—with nourishing meals that bring people together and activities that align with the retreat’s restorative purpose. Details on specific excursions, activities, and dining experiences are coming soon.
5. Special Offers & Add-Ons
Enhance your retreat experience with optional mind-body wellness services available on-site, designed to support deeper nervous system repair and relaxation. You’ll also have access to private coaching opportunities—either during our time together or once you return home—to support ongoing integration and sustained wellbeing.

Meet Your Coach…
Hi! I’m Amy Schamberg, a National Board Certified Health & Wellness Coach, Functional Medicine Health Coach, and School Psychologist.
After 15 years in the public education and mental health fields, I’ve identified a recurring theme: Hard-working, ambitious, high-achievers who care deeply for others continue to find themselves teetering on the edge of burnout. Do any of these sound familiar?
You’re exhausted all the time- mentally, emotionally, and physically.
You have trouble telling one day from the next because you’re just trying to survive.
You feel like you’re giving so much of yourself, yet nothing you do is truly appreciated.
You’ve withdrawn socially because exhaustion makes connection feel like another demand.
You feel like you’re fighting an uphill battle you can never win.
Your productivity and performance fluctuate depending on the latest crisis.
You have trouble concentrating and often feel detached or “checked out.”
You’ve become cynical, numb, or find it hard to see the humor or good in things.
If this sounds like you, please know you’re not alone. I’ve been there too — stuck in my own burnout cycles, wondering if things would ever change. I found a way through, and now it’s my mission to help others do the same.
Burnout is a state of mental, emotional, and physical exhaustion brought on by prolonged, unmanaged, chronic stress.
Although the World Health Organization categorizes burnout as an “occupational phenomenon,” its manifestations can extend beyond the workplace, permeating other areas of life such as parenting, caretaking, or relationships.
Gaining confidence in setting boundaries, treating myself with kindness (and finally stopping the self-blame), and recognizing my unhelpful patterns were some of the hardest — and most transformative — lessons I had to learn to break free from burnout and find joy again. I had to completely redefine wellness, trading self-care checklists for genuine self-compassion, and learning what I needed to subtract in order to move forward.
Here’s the good news: when you start recognizing the thoughts, habits, and beliefs that no longer serve you — and replace them with ones that support your well-being — everything begins to shift. You reconnect with your passions. You rediscover your energy. You rebuild your relationships. And you finally start thriving beyond burnout.
