Moving abroad can shake your sense of stability, with new systems to learn and constant pressure to adapt. Together, we steady the process and turn that uncertainty into practical steps you can trust as you build a life that feels more your own.

Daniel Funk

I am a solution focused transitional coach originally from Canada, now based in Prague, Czech Republic, where I moved in my early 20s with a sense of adventure and determination. Over the years, I built a diverse career, starting as a professional English teacher working with business clients, followed by a brief career in real estate, and ultimately pursuing my passion for coaching.

Testimonials

What distinguished Daniel Funk as a coach is that he understands culture transitions from the inside track. He lives transition. Everyday he experiences the challenge of finding his way in a foreign country and at the same time can hold a birds-eye perspective as he helps others navigate the complexity of their personal transitions. Underpinning Daniel's coaching is his deep commitment to understanding the individuals behind the issues at hand. His inbuilt curiosity, sensitivity and deep respect for others allows him to assist individuals to engage and navigate complex change in practical and creative ways, I have been Daniel's life coach for two years and have experienced him as courageous with a layer of humility that underpins his ever present curiosity. He has the character and talent to not only help others engage the complexity of change but to bring their best selves to the task as hand.

I’ve worked with Coach Daniel Funk in several crucial areas of life- challenges at work, a new role, balancing a legal practice with graduate school. In each session he brings his insight and presence as a coach to allow me to discover the answers for myself. Through his coaching techniques I’ve developed new approaches to life’s challenges and effective solutions that work. I enjoy working with Daniel because he assists me in gaining a fresh perspective and a new approach to ongoing issues. I recommend that anyone who is interested in coaching have some sessions with him to experience the change he can facilitate.

To whom it may concern. I have known Daniel Funk since 2012 and have seen his strong commitment to personal growth. After moving from Canada to the Czech Republic, Daniel experienced firsthand how challenging it can be to build a life in a new country. Because he has lived through these difficulties himself, he truly understands what others facing similar changes are going through. Today, he combines this real-life experience with his training as a certified coach to help people move through these changes more smoothly. I am confident Daniel will do a great job supporting others in similar situations.

I have known Daniel for over 15 years. He is strong, determined, caring and understanding. He has the ability to coach and guide people in their next steps and through difficult situations, even stuck ones. He has come through, and on top, of a lot of situations and challenges himself. Daniel is not only capable but friendly and personable. Being an expat myself who has gone through big life changes and upheavals and knowing Daniel for many years I know he has the gifting to coach and guide you along life's journey.
