Wellness Adventure Travel: Reconnecting with Yourself Through Transformative Trips with Dr. Stacey Funt
Episode Description
Have you ever felt like you’re so caught up in your daily roles and responsibilities that you’ve lost touch with who you are beneath all of that?
Dr. Stacey Funt, a radiologist, health coach, and founder of LH Adventure Travel, believes that travel has the power to help us reconnect: not just with the world around us, but with ourselves. She curates wellness and adventure group trips for women to some of the most transformative destinations on earth, from trekking the Inca Trail to exploring the Atlas Mountains to hiking in the Himalayas. But the real transformation doesn’t come from the destinations themselves. It comes from what happens when women finally give themselves permission to step away from everything they’re responsible for and into an experience that’s entirely their own.
Dr. Stacey Funt and I discuss why that permission is often the hardest part, what changes when you remove the mental load of planning and managing everything, and why traveling with a group of like-minded women creates such a unique space for vulnerability and connection. She also opens up about how a solo trek in Nepal during one of the darkest periods of her life became the catalyst for building a business around creating these kinds of experiences for others.
