Hi there !
Hi, I’m Stacey Funt - physician, coach, global traveler, wife, and mother. I’m also someone who believes deeply in the power of travel to transform us - mind, body, and soul.
For as long as I can remember, I’ve been drawn to adventure, connection, and well-being. I’ve also studied Lifestyle Medicine, which explores how our daily behaviors shape our overall health. The intersection of these passions - wellness and meaningful travel-led to the creation of Lifestyle Health Adventures, the heart of LH Adventure Travel.
For me, travel isn’t just about visiting new places - it’s about stepping outside of our daily routines, reconnecting with ourselves, and embracing life fully. My mission is to create awe-inspiring, unforgettable adventures for women and couples that immerse us in nature, promote well-being, and foster meaningful connections.
Each itinerary I craft is thoughtfully designed with key elements of wellness in mind, incorporating:
✔ Moderate movement - typically hiking, with some trips featuring biking or kayaking
✔ Relaxation experiences - time to relax and rejuvenate
✔ Cuisine that is nourishing and locally-inspired
✔ Sisterhood - a sense of connection and shared experiences in stunning natural settings
This is more than just travel - it’s a transformative experience that creates lasting bonds and memories.
My Journey - Travel has been my greatest passion for over 37 years. From sleeping on wooden floors in Northern Thailand’s hill tribe huts to having my sandwich snatched by a vulture in Tanzania, to soul-stirring nights under the stars in the Amazon - these moments continue to shape me.
One especially pivotal trip was visiting the Galapagos Islands with my husband shortly after our marriage. Watching mother–baby interactions in the wild moved us deeply - and one month later, I was pregnant with twins. As they grew, I started taking “Mom & Me” trips with each of them at age eight, a tradition we still continue.
Alongside travel, my background includes:
✔ Psychology at Emory University
✔ Medical school at NYU and residency at Mount Sinai
✔ Certification in health & wellness coaching (NBHWC, Institute for Integrative Nutrition)
✔ Life coach training through the Coach Training Institute
For over a decade, I’ve coached, led workshops, and lectured on wellness and self-care for both physicians and the general public. As my children left for college, I finally stepped into the vision I’d long held: to bring together healing, joy, and adventure through travel.
Now, I lead LH Adventure Travel with the support of a team of wonderful hosts who share my values. Together, we create journeys that are soulful, joyful, and deeply nourishing.
I invite you to join us on an upcoming adventure - or reach out to explore a custom trip for your private group. We’ll start with a one-on-one Zoom call to make sure it’s the perfect fit. From there, you’ll receive personalized support, a detailed packing list, access to a private Facebook group, and connection every step of the way.
Love Stacey
