Kate Strakosch
Katie Strakosch is a wholistic wellness practitioner, embodiment guide, and yoga teacher with nearly 20 years of experience helping individuals reconnect with their bodies and honor the wisdom they carry within. Known for her heart-centered presence and grounded guidance, Katie weaves together yoga, somatic practices, nervous system education, herbal wisdom, and integrative wellness to support people in slowing down, cultivating self-trust, and living with greater vitality, authenticity, and embodied connection.
Her work is informed by extensive study in nutrition, nervous system regulation, trauma-informed somatic exploration, sacred sexuality, herbal medicine, and integrative wellness. Katie’s formal training began with a degree in whole-foods-based nutrition from Bastyr University, where she immersed herself in herbal medicine, meditation, yoga, and mind-body healing practices.
What began as a passion for nourishing others through food gradually unfolded into a deeper exploration of yoga, movement, nervous system health, herbal medicine, somatics, and holistic sexuality. So much of this stemmed from her own personal journey.
Katie is the founder of Sunshine Kate’s Wellness Center, an evolving in-person and virtual sanctuary born from her own journey of healing, curiosity, and connection. Through retreats, workshops, and private mentorship, she guides clients to nourish themselves on every level, reconnect with their innate wisdom, and cultivate a more meaningful relationship with their bodies, lives, and the world around them.
