Treasurer


Meira Findel - an East Brunswick New Jersey professional services provider and former CFO of a large mortgage business, now known as "The Holistic Accountant", realized through her work with many diverse clients that "Financial Independence" is about much more than the proper handling of financial matters.

 Meira has a vision and is taking action to revolutionize the way we all think about abundance, prosperity and wealth so we can become liberated financially from the "old world" thinking. 

"We are talking about deep seated beliefs that people hold about wealth creation in their business lives and in their personal lives. In order for me to assist people to really attain the goals they desire, it inevitably comes down to how they think, feel and react to the energy and issues around money".

A graduate of Rutgers University, Meira Findel holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Accounting. Her professional experience has afforded her a diverse base of valuable experience that has included private and corporate tax preparation as well as bookkeeping and financial services on behalf of nonprofit agencies and small businesses in a wide range of industries.

Meira works with business owners and individuals across the country. For more information go to the website: www.OneStepAccounting.net

In working with individuals and companies Meira noticed that there is a great need to address personal obstacles in order to pave the way to success. 

After almost 20 years of my journey to discover the core of who I really am, releasing and transforming everything that no longer serves me I have learned that how we show up in one area of our life is how we show up in all areas of our life.  In order to live in true abundance and prosperity, in every way, we must be authentic to who we truly are.

"The reason I joined the Board is - I believe that global healing will happen when Holistic and Spiritual Entrepreneurs master their financial and business skills.  It is my mission to assist them in this journey."

Representing Membership  


Vivian Sartoretto -
is an Ordained Minister, Reiki Master and Certified Hypnotherapist specializing in Past Life Regression and Light and Color Therapy. She is owner and operator of Harmony Holistic Wellness Center.

Vivian received her Reiki Master Certification from the Center for Holistic Healing in Ringwood, NJ, and her Hypnotherapy Certification from the National Guild of Hypnotists in Merrimack, NH. 

Vivian has spent the last seventeen years helping others to heal and learn ways to connect with their own spirituality.  She has appeared as a guest speaker on New York radio station WEVD with Dr. Majid Ali, internationally acclaimed author of several published books and practicing physician of holistic medicine at the Institute of Preventive Medicine in Denville, NJ, and local station WMTR-AM "Healthwise".  She has conducted bio-feedback stress management classes as well as auto regulation classes.

Vivian holds certifications in emergency pain management and past life regression.  She has an interest in the Martial arts and holds a black belt in karate.  

Vivian has spoken to organizations and given seminars on various subjects relating to healing physically, emotionally and spiritually.  She has given seminars on light and Color Therapy, angel awareness, stress management, spiritual development and past life regression. 

Vivian instructs a variety of classes as well as employing techniques she has personally formulated through her years of experience to enhance her Reiki and Hypnosis sessions. Vivian continues to seek new knowledge and more viable ways to convey it to her students.

"When I was originally asked by Linda if I had an interest in serving on the Holistic Mentorship Network Board, my first thoughts were,  How could I be of service? What would be expected of me? Am I able to make that commitment right now? What could I contribute? The more I thought, the more confused I became. Then I thought, if she asked me, perhaps she felt I could offer something to the board.

So, I decided to say yes and go from there.  As I was sitting at my first meeting, knowing that I was not officially elected to the board yet, I listened to all discussions. I realized as I sat there that I wanted to contribute to the conversation and had ideas already forming in my mind. I also realized that I could not officially state those ideas. I saw everyone was on the same page, and even if they weren't, there was peaceful discussion about the issue on the table and that was refreshing because I have served on other boards and that was not always the case.

Now that I have been officially elected to the board, my hope is that I can bring positive contributions to the table, bring a positive attitude to keep the "dream" moving forward. I believe we all have the same dream, to continue to work toward connecting with the community, and beyond, to bring an awareness on all levels to the holistic professionals. By working together, and focusing positive energy toward the "dream", nothing is impossible. You never know what the "big" plan is, that's the beauty of dreaming".
