About Char Sundust
Char Sundust is a teacher, mentor, healer, and visionary who assists others in cultivating and accessing their gifts by offering insight, information, and wisdom to create positive and sustainable changes. She provides ceremony for the celebrations and life passages all human beings experience, including births, weddings and commitments, convocations, graduations, rites of passage, and celebrations of life. Char’s healing practice integrates ancient and new technologies so more healing modalities are available. All healing begins with the soul.
Char’s lineage is woven of mixed global heritages, which has inspired her to create programs for people to recover and discover their ancestral roots and spiritual identity, and apply these learnings to support a deeply personal spiritual practice that can be applied to change our internal world, which creates positive change in the external world.
Char’s program assists those who want to access their inherent body wisdom and to cultivate and develop their intuitive nature, and to recognize the voice in Spirit in their own natures. She has developed numerous programs for personal, professional, and spiritual development, including a year-long leadership and mentoring course, a program for personal healing and soul work, an applied spirituality program, a program called Flow for writers who use writing as a spiritual practice, and a couple’s workshop for people in committed relationships, because we bring ourselves to any relationship we are in.
Char Sundust has been the resident spiritual advisor and mentor at Bastyr University and works with IT communities, corporations, businesses, and universities to create an environment of mutuality and humanity where everyone wins. She offers one-on-one mentorship for personal, spiritual, and professional development, mentoring individuals and groups to achieve the next level in their health and well-being, creative, spiritual, and professional lives.
Char has been featured on KEXP, KZOK, The Jeff Renner Show, and Evening Magazine.

Char is deeply committed to the sustainability of nature and attending to the Earth’s well-being. She assists individuals in achieving their destinies through spiritual practice and personal accountability. She serves as a bridge of the many cultural wisdoms we have access to at this time to create tangible, positive change in our internal and external environments. Char comes from a rich spiritual background of mixed race and ethnic heritage. She thanks her mother, who has mixed indigenous roots from North and South America, Siberia, and Europe.
