Edward Pike and Rob Sykes are husbands and the co-founders of Find Your Magic, a retreat and wellness company working to help gay men and women in their mid-lives who are navigating major life transitions, loss, divorce, burnout or illness to find clarity, connection, and confidence. With an abundance of experience throughout music, event production and business between them, they are inspirational and relatable speakers.
Edward's career began as a Personal Trainer before becoming the founder of the Thrive Foundation, where he pioneers the initiative for gay men and those living with HIV by creating a safe and empowering space. Additionally, being the creator of the MAGIC Method, he has a passion for helping others move from self-doubt to vibrant health. Meanwhile, Rob's journey followed a 30-year career in music, events and digital operations. After navigating through his own personal mental health and emotional disconnection, he began a personal healing journey that led him to sound therapy, where he now specialises in Voice Analysis and Vibrational Retuning.
Having met on a retreat in Crete in 2017, they understand the power of taking time and space away from our day-to-day in order to find clarity and a fresh perspective, creating life-affirming programs and experiences that have a profound impact on participants’ lives. Their signature framework helps individuals come home to their bodies, move beyond the noise, re-learn how to listen and trust themselves, to create vibrant health, connected relationships and meaningful work.
Whether in corporate settings, retreats, wellness events, or LGBTQ+ spaces, their mission is to create exhilarating experiences that connect, heal and elevate - by design. They do this by blending coaching, sound therapy, movement and outdoor activities with a deep love and care for their work, people and planet.

Official Feedback from In-Person & Virtual Events
“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.” - Owain
