Hollie Sky
Welcome to my world of Healing Arts.
I’m Hollie Sky, the founder of Sky Spa Wellness Centre in Barry, Wales —
my heart-led, soul-aligned creation.
For over two decades, I’ve been using my healing hands to support others on their journey to wellbeing. From a very young age, I knew I was different — highly sensitive, intuitive, and deeply in tune with the energy around me. I couldn’t always put it into words, but I carried a deep knowing. Growing up, I often felt judged for my sensitivity, and instead of embracing it,
I built walls around myself, adopting a tougher persona. I was often called an old soul, and deep down, I knew I was meant to walk a path of healing.
Straight after school, I followed my calling and enrolled in a Level 3 Beauty & Holistic Massage Therapy course. I knew I was meant to work with my hands. Once qualified, I poured myself into the spa world — eventually managing 5-star spas in Cardiff and London.
At just 20, I left my family home in Wales and moved to London. The fast-paced city life and party scene quickly became a way to escape the intensity of my emotions. I didn’t yet know how to ground myself or protect my energy, so I absorbed everything — other people’s pain, stress, emotions — while neglecting my own.
I was working 40-hour weeks, massaging eight clients a day, and partying through the weekends. My body was completely out of sync. I felt like a hypocrite — advising clients to rest, hydrate, eat well, and take care of themselves, while I was doing none of that. No rest, no nature, no nourishment. I lost a lot of weight, lived in chronic pain, and was crippled by anxiety.
Eventually, I hit my breaking point. I spiraled into darkness — what I now understand as my spiritual awakening, my “dark night of the soul.” On the outside, I wore a brave face, but inside I was falling apart. I had always felt responsible for everyone else’s happiness, constantly putting others first and losing myself in the process.
But then came the moment of truth: stay in the chaos or choose a different path.
I chose healing. I moved back home to Wales — and that was 14 years ago.
From the ashes of destruction, I began the slow journey of rebuilding. Not long after surrendering to something greater, I met my husband and soon became pregnant with my first child — my daughter, Olivia Sky. Divine timing.
At the time, I was managing a team of therapists at Laguna Health & Spa in Cardiff, but my heart was calling for freedom — to raise Olivia and do what I loved, on my own terms. I took a leap and went self-employed, building a new client base from scratch. I started out renting a small room at The Gym Group in Cardiff, where the energy of movement and wellbeing sparked a fire in me. That’s when I began my fitness journey — training to become a yoga instructor, personal trainer, and alkaline nutritionist.
These practices changed my life — helping me reconnect to my body, cultivate vibrant health, and maintain balance not just for myself, but for my family and my clients. It allowed me to offer a truly holistic approach to healing.
Listening to my soul’s guidance led me to buy a home in Barry, welcome my second child,
Jack Ocean, and birth Sky Spa Wellness Centre — a healing sanctuary for the community.
Both of my births were natural, intuitive, and deeply empowering. They reminded me of the incredible wisdom within our bodies when we learn to trust and surrender.
Over the years, I’ve come to love and respect my body on a whole new level.
My children are my greatest teachers and biggest blessings.
One of the most important lessons on this journey? Self-love and boundaries.
For so long, I was a “yes” woman — always saying yes to others, and no to myself. But once I turned inward and began to heal, I started to understand my worth. I learned how to protect my energy, to set boundaries, and to prioritise my own wellbeing. Self-care and self-love now sit at the core of everything I do — in my life and my business.
I support my team in the same way, encouraging balance, boundaries, and wellbeing.
At Sky Spa, our therapists work half-day shifts to maintain harmony and presence in all we do.
I’m so passionate about natural healing and holistic health because this path saved me from a dark place. If sharing my story helps even one person feel less alone, more seen, or more inspired — then it’s been worth it.
Thank you for taking the time to get to know me a little.
If our paths are meant to cross, I look forward to connecting with you.
With love, strength, and surrender,
Hollie Sky
