Let’s Talk Wellness ~ with Host, Mara James
Social Emotional Learning is a powerful modality for anyone who learns to practice it. Mara’s guest this week is Tilly Levine, Founder and President of Tilly’s Life Center, and she has some news to share about how Social Emotional Learning is proving to be especially powerful for the teen population they are serving.
In 1982, Tilly Levine co-founded Tillys, a leading specialty retailer in the action sports industry, selling clothing, shoes, and accessories. Tilly Levine has over 30 years of experience in the retail industry, serving as Vice President of Vendor Relations since its inception.
As a key driver of the company’s philanthropic efforts, Tilly has been committed to helping disadvantaged children and teens for many years through the Tilly’s Charity Golf Tournament benefiting organizations such as Boys and Girls Town, Boys & Girls Club, Casa Youth Shelter, and Big Brothers Big Sisters.
In 2005, Tilly’s founded two Tilly’s Baby Homes in Trabuco Canyon as a result of her efforts. This program uses an innovative approach to maintain family unity for newborns and infants who are removed from their home.
Recognizing a need for life skills that build confidence, inspire compassion and create lasting changes in the lives of young people, Tilly founded Tilly’s Life Center (TLC) inTLC is a youth-focused, 501(c)(3) nonprofit charitable foundation aimed at empowering all teens with a positive mindset and enabling them to effectively cope with crisis, adversity and tough decisions. TLC’s mission is to inspire today’s youth to reach their full potential as productive, kind, happy, and responsible individuals.
TLC programs are currently empowering teens in high schools, as well as through organizations such as CHOC Hospital, The Academy at Orangewood Children’s Foundation, Big Brothers Big Sisters, Boys & Girls Club, Think Together, and more. It is Tilly’s dream to see all teens across the nation benefit from the life skills gained through TLC.
In her free time, Tilly enjoys life to the fullest. Her passions include golfing, hiking, snowboarding, traveling, and spending time with her family.
