Rob Sykes and Edward Pike are partners in life and work, and the co-founders of Find Your Magic, a wellbeing practice devoted to helping people restore balance, clarity and self-connection. Together, they blend decades of experience in creative industries, coaching, therapy and leadership to bring a fresh, grounded approach to mental health and emotional wellbeing. Their philosophy centres on the belief that true healing begins when we slow down, listen within and honour the wisdom of both body and mind. As speakers, Rob and Edward are known for their sincerity, humour and heart-centred storytelling, which make complex ideas about mental health feel relatable and deeply human.

Rob brings more than thirty years of experience across music, events and digital leadership. From his early career with MTV and Channel 4 to senior talent roles in the tech and creative sectors, he has long understood the pressures of high-performing environments. His transition from the fast-paced world of marketing and DJing to becoming a sound therapist reflects a profound personal evolution that now shapes his approach to wellbeing. Using Voice Analysis and Vibrational Retuning, Rob helps people release emotional tension and reconnect with a sense of calm and purpose. His empathy and authenticity enable him to speak with rare insight about burnout, creativity and self-care.

Edward’s path began in personal training before evolving into holistic coaching and wellbeing leadership. In 2015, he founded The Thrive Foundation, a pioneering programme supporting gay men and people living with HIV. He went on to develop the MAGIC Method, a framework built around Movement, Aliveness, Gifts, Intuition and Creativity. His work combines embodied practice with psychological understanding, helping people rediscover resilience through the body. Alongside this, Edward’s career as a marketing and creative consultant has strengthened his ability to communicate wellbeing ideas with clarity and warmth.

Together, Rob and Edward lead Find Your Magic Retreats, immersive experiences that help people recover from burnout, transition and disconnection. Having met on a retreat in Crete in 2017, they know the transformative power of taking space to reflect and heal. Their shared mission to help others rediscover confidence, connection and calm makes them compelling and compassionate voices for mental health awareness.

Official Testimonials

Edward Pike & Rob Sykes is regularly booked to engage audiences at events, read their latest feedback below:

“I’ve had the pleasure of attending events and courses co-curated by Ed and Rob for a number of years. I’d highly recommend them as speakers for private and corporate events. Their authentic approach, backed up by their individual expertise, makes for a unique and memorable experience for all those listeners and subscribers. The tougher they multiply their impact tenfold. Individually strong as a solo presence, but as a duo they’re a major force, meaning any person attending or listening will get something from the conversation.”

Dr Jobin

“Rob and Ed from Find Your Magic brought such warmth and inspiration to our Big Gay Out community. Their talk encouraged us as queer people to discover more joy in our lives, connect deeply with our bodies and spirits, and truly explore what makes us tick. The feedback from our members was overwhelmingly positive — many described the session as transformative, and several even went on to join their retreats, which were equally raved about. I cannot recommend them highly enough and would have them back in an instant.
