INTRODUCTION OF US

Our Story

HUG YOSELF & LOVE YOSELF (HYLY) began as a journey of self-discovery. In 2019 our founder, Alissa Tillman found herself disconnected. “A HOT MESS” in her words. Feeling lost, she returned to her mother’s home to reset, in search of clarity, confidence and purpose.

During this season, something magical happened. Alissa began looking inward, opening a portal to an empowered way of living, feeling and being. While recording a YouTube video, the phrase “HUG YOSELF & LOVE YOSELF” unexpectedly flew out. It wasn’t rehearsed or planned, in that moment a powerful mantra and the foundation for her future sprouted.

Alissa has an energy and spirit that is contagious and endearing. I can feel her passion and desire to truly understand what I'm going through. She is walking through the coaching conversation with you side by side with genuine curiosity. She has helped me discover and uncover parts of me that I was not paying attention to or compartmentalizing.I am grateful to be working with her and feel like I'm growing into a newer expansive version of myself in the process.

Alissa was awesome! We definitely had a connection. She is a great coach. I know her clients will enjoy her sessions. Her vibe and energy was strong and positive and she was well prepared for our session.

-Tara T

I came in the beginning of my program not knowing what to expect and very anxious. Throughout the program I was able to get more in tune with myself and focused more on the things that I really did need to work on. It opened me up to trying new things and being more aware and positive with myself

-Caree C

Alissa's creativity is simply boundless! Her strong organizational skills and passion for helping others shine through and illuminate her work. She spends time getting to know each individual young lady and tailors her approach to meet their needs. Her positivity is infectious! She has the unique gift of making everyone she works with feel like they can conquer the world.

I had a powerful session in hyly last week. Alissa is a very talented coach who helped me get to my next level.

-Lora S Joy Village Founder

Hug Yoself & Love Yoself was the obvious choice for Joy Village when we needed mentorship for our students. Alissa's positivity was totally infectious. She helped our girls to speak love over themselves and to bond with one another. I am so grateful for her service and I hope to partner with HYLY again and again in the future!
