Rob Sykes is a sound therapist, straw marquetry artist and former international DJ who helps people reconnect with themselves through sound, frequency, and presence. With a diverse background, including 25 years of experience as a professional DJ, event production, interior and set design and business, he shares his vast real-world knowledge with his audiences, making his keynotes both relatable and inspiring.
Rob’s journey into sound therapy followed a 30-year career in music, events, and digital operations - industries where he often felt disconnected from his deeper sense of purpose. After navigating his own struggles with mental health and emotional disconnection, he began a personal healing journey that led him to sound therapy. In 2018, he formally trained in the field and now specialises in Voice Analysis and Vibrational Retuning—a targeted approach that supports a wide range of physical, mental, and emotional imbalances. His work helps clients restore inner balance so that they can live happier and healthier lives.
In 2022, he became co-founder of Find Your Magic with his husband, Edward Pike, where they lead immersive retreats for people navigating life transitions, burnout, and disconnection - especially gay men and women in their mid-lives - bringing empathy, care, and sensory awareness to the healing process. Rob works with those desiring to experience powerful and multi-sensory experiences in order to rebalance and rejuvenate their mind and body.
Rob is able to combine his experience across sectors with his deep passion for sound therapy and personal growth to create a transformative experience. Rob shares his insight with his husband on their renowned podcast 'Find Your Magic', where they continue to provide grounded conversations. Rob leads conversations on burnout, intuition and self-reconnection to inspire audiences.
