✨ From Pain to Purpose: How Creativity Gave Me My Voice Back
There’s something powerful about creating with your own two hands — especially when life has tried to take everything else from you.
This store isn’t just a storefront. It’s a reflection of who I am and how far I’ve come.
I didn’t get to follow my original dream. Life threw me some rough patches — more than a few, actually. I’ve been through battles most people couldn’t even imagine. And yet, through all of it, art remained my anchor. My creativity never left me, even when everything else felt like it did.
Whether it was singing on stage, dancing to release the weight of the world, cooking up a comforting meal, or creating something beautiful with my hands… expression was always in me. It’s how I process. It’s how I breathe.
💫 Why “Light is the Sky”?
The name Light is the Sky isn’t just a phrase — it’s a promise.
To me, it means that no matter how heavy the darkness feels, there is always light — and that light is everywhere. It surrounds us, it lifts us, and sometimes, it is us. Even in the hardest moments, I’ve held onto the belief that we carry our own light. And when we finally rise, when we create, when we heal — we become the sky. Boundless. Limitless. Free.
That’s what this brand stands for.
That’s what I stand for.
This name is my reminder that I survived — and not just to exist, but to shine.
🌿 A Heritage Passed Down
Many of the handmade items you’ll find here come from skills passed down by my ancestors — the women before me who stitched beauty into hardship, who made something out of nothing. Through them, I learned to create with meaning.
So when you shop here, you’re not just buying a product — you’re holding a story, a tradition, a piece of something sacred.
📚 What’s Coming Next
I’m working on a cookbook rooted in soul, comfort, and memory — with stories behind each dish. I’m also deep into writing a novel that’s close to my heart. It’s raw, real, and meant to inspire anyone who’s ever had to rebuild from the ground up.
Every purchase helps me keep going — to support my family, finish my book, and continue building something I can pass down to my children.
Thank you for walking this path with me. Thank you for believing in Light is the Sky.
With love and fire,
— Amira Skye
