Join Rabbi Sherre Hirsch, Chief Innovation Officer at AJU and Ellie Burrows Gluck, the Co-Founder and CEO of MNDFL, New York City's premier meditation company, which includes studios, corporate programming, teacher training, an on-demand meditation channel and a non-profit arm, MNDFL Ed.  

Ellie Burrows Gluck is the Cofounder and Chief Executive Officer of MNDFL as well as a Vedic Meditation teacher, certified personal development coach and writer. After graduating magna cum laude from Northwestern University, Ellie served as an executive in the film business for a number of years, focusing on the business side of film: producing, selling, financing and finding new talent. When her meetings began to evolve into coaching sessions around effective communication and interpersonal relationships, she chose to pursue mindfulness in a more meaningful way. Ellie decided to travel the world as a spiritual tourist ultimately returning to New York where she received her Certificate in Coaching from NYU. Shortly thereafter, in 2014, she cofounded MNDFL, New York City's premier meditation company which includes studios, corporate programming, teacher training, an on-demand meditation channel and a non-profit arm, MNDFL Ed. Along the way, Ellie was exposed to Vedic Meditation. What started as a daily practice turned into a full blown love affair, and beginning in 2017 Ellie completed her 2000-hour teacher training program under master teacher Théo Burkhardt.
