Written by Jasper Marie | 1/29/25 3:00 PM

Before enrolling, Tyisha Simpson had begun building her practice, yet had not fully immersed herself in the work. Her introduction to SWIHA came unexpectedly—initially, she was preparing to take a course from a different school. However, when she discovered SWIHA, she felt an immediate connection to its mission and knew it was aligned with her purpose.

Tyisha’s passion for integrative healing is rooted in her deep desire to serve others. She has a unique ability to see people clearly and understands the value of having a diverse toolkit to support their journeys. To her, integrative healing is a holistic approach that offers something truly transformative for everyone, creating a space for growth and connection.

Tyisha’s path has been filled with defining moments, reinforcing her belief that she is exactly where she is meant to be. Even during times of homelessness and hardship, she remained steadfast in her calling to serve others. Her unwavering faith and resilience have guided her through every challenge, solidifying her commitment to her work.

SWIHA has played a significant role in Tyisha’s transformation. It provided her with clarity and confidence, particularly in the business aspects of her practice. Beyond technical skills, SWIHA opened the door to a supportive community—a network of like-minded individuals who share her passion for healing. Tyisha credits the school for giving her the tools to put herself out there and allowing her to grow as a coach and a person.

Tyisha is the founder of HoliSpace, a nonprofit organization dedicated to empowering spiritual leaders, guides, and intuitives to step deeper into their purpose. Inspired by her personal journey of transformation and healing, Tyisha created HoliSpace as a sanctuary for those seeking to embody their highest potential.

HoliSpace offers a range of services, including its flagship program, B.alanced E.mbodiment. This 32-week course provides participants with the skills to hold sacred space and facilitate transformative healing. In addition, HoliSpace offers Human Design services and tools to help individuals align with their unique blueprints. Tyisha is also working on launching physical products and a scholarship fund to support BIPOC spiritual leaders.

Through her coaching and programs, Tyisha creates an impact by helping clients balance self-care with service to others. She guides them to embody their mastery, teaching them to hold space for themselves and their communities with compassion and wisdom.

One of the greatest lessons Tyisha learned at SWIHA is that perfection is not necessary—what truly matters is showing up authentically. Her time at SWIHA taught her the value of presence over perfection and how to embody the innate wholeness we all possess.

To prospective students who may wonder if they have the support needed to complete their program, Tyisha offers this advice: “Do not think you’re alone. Your teachers and advisors are there to support you, no matter what challenges you face.” She speaks from experience, having navigated homelessness, moving multiple times, and personal loss during her studies—all with the unwavering support of the SWIHA community.

Tyisha’s journey continues to inspire those around her. With plans to speak at summits and retreats in the coming months, she is dedicated to spreading her message and helping others transform their lives. Tyisha’s personal and professional journeys are deeply intertwined, and she views her work as both her passion and her purpose.

Through her leadership at HoliSpace and the lessons she’s learned at SWIHA, Tyisha Simpson shows the power of resilience, service, and transformation. Her journey is a testament to the impact of authentic healing and the beauty of walking a path aligned with one’s calling.
