And why we call ourselves “The Mom and Pop Vitamix Shop”
Hey there! We’re Shalva and Lenny Gale at LifeIsNoYoke and we sell the Vitamix machine as affiliate partners.

How does that work?
People use our links to buy their Vitamix through us (instead of directly from us).

Now…
You have many choices of links to use. Here’s why you should consider using ours.

“How did you get started with Vitamix?”
Lenny’s Vitamix story: I’d used egg white smoothies to lose weight and build muscle twice in my life. Once during high school for sports, and then again after college. During the latter transformation, I got my first Vitamix. It helped me step up my smoothie-making and culinary game, of course. But mostly, it made my healthy lifestyle stick. In 2011, when I was preparing to take the leap from Big Consulting and make health and wellness my work, I learned about an opportunity to join the Vitamix affiliate program.
Shalva’s story: Lenny left a Vitamix on my counter when we began dating. I put down my IO psychology career to work on Life is NOYKE full time in 2016.
“Who are you?”
We are DIY introverts who left the corporate world to find joy and purpose with our work.
“Are you vegans?”
I am, she is not. We keep a plant-based kitchen; no animal products at all. But we eat without rules or judgment outside the home.
“What does Life is NOYOKE mean?”
Pronounced no-yolk, noyoke was originally wordplay. Think egg whites. They’re often used by people early in their healthy lifestyle journey. “Egg white omelet, please!” It’s this idea of small steps in the right direction that remains the core ethos behind Life is NOYOKE. Today, we use the Vitamix as a means to that end.
