Malynda Twitchell: The “Juice Lady”
You may have heard JohnJay and Rich mention the “juice lady” on the radio. That moniker belongs to Malynda Twitchell, the green goddess behind Akeso Raw Organic Juice Delivery. She makes and delivers the customized organic cold-pressd juice blends right to your door (plant-based meals too)–creative and colorful concoctions that combine fresh, local ingredients. Her clients include celebs and athletes, like the Arizona Cardinals team and Shannon Brown of the Suns. Here, she spills on what you’ll find in her fridge and how it’s better to walk the walk rather than talk the talk (so true!).

I’m inspired by…
My family! My amazing husband, Ryan, and our two girls, Keira (7) and Tristyn (5). It’s because of them that I want to be the best mother/wife/leader/educator and example I can be.
The perfect day would be…
Saving a life.
Favorite calorie-burner…
H.I.I.T and Bikram Yoga.

My fridge is always stocked with…
Fresh fruits, fresh vegetables and a nice handful of superfoods!
One think I cannot live without…
My books!! I love to read!
The one person who motivates me is…
My Grandpa. I’ve always wanted to make him proud.
No sweat session is complete without…
Electrolyte enhanced water and a yoga mat.
My motivation…
Being the example of a healthy lifestyle. From the food I eat, to the goals I set and accomplish, to being a mother, a wife and a good friend and appreciating all that I am in this life.
My stress relief…
Laughing and dancing with my two girls! Their laughs and innocence take away all stress.
The best medicine…
Is no medicine! Let food be thy medicine… eat to LIVE!! Don’t live to EAT!
I’m listening to…
Keira and Tristyn sing their little hearts out Image may be NSFW.

Best fitness/nutrition advice…
When deciding to set fitness/nutrition goals, always make a vision board! Put everything that want to accomplish up on your vision board, add quotes, words of inspiration… then post that vision board in a place where it is easily to see every single day. MULTIPLE times a day! Then decide to COMMIT and go for it! Give yourself all that you can give… because guess what?? YOU deserve it!!
Best habit…
I’m constantly wanting to learn MORE!
My fitness goal…
To better my Bikram practice.
My healthy haven…
Chakra 4. It’s an all vegan restaurant nestled in a quiet location on Camelback and 20th Street where they also serve raw foods (my kind of eating!).
Secret to happiness…
Keep the negative out, whether it be negative thoughts, negative friends and family… remove it all! Keep only positive around you, and believe in yourself. When you believe in yourself and you truly love yourself, then you will automatically love and appreciate others around you.
Always…
Walk the walk.
Never…
Talk the talk.
