Each week Christine and Salt interview the Badass Woman of the Week, a feature that aims to reward women who have overcome a challenge and emerged stronger as a result. Each Badass Woman wins an empowering B Badass bracelet from The Power to B and is featured on-air Fridays at 7:15 A.M. with Christine and Salt in the morning.

Today, we are thrilled to introduce our Badass Woman of the week, Judy Flynn of Glastonbury, the incredible founder and owner of The Fresh Monkee.


Judy's journey to success is nothing short of inspiring. She is a mom of two who, like many busy parents, craved a healthy and convenient option for her on-the-go lifestyle. Being a smoothie enthusiast herself, she began experimenting with recipes right in her home kitchen.

After some trial and error, Judy's passion for smoothies took her to new heights. She decided to bring her delicious creations to the public and opened her very own smoothie shop. Starting with ten mouthwatering recipes in a modest 600 square foot space in Wethersfield, she worked tirelessly to make her dream a reality.

Fast forward to today, and Judy's dedication and hard work have paid off immensely. The Fresh Monkee has expanded to five locations and has become a beloved destination for health-conscious folks in the community. With a repertoire of over 35 delectable smoothie flavors, Judy has built an incredibly loyal and devoted customer base.

But Judy's journey to success hasn't been without its challenges. As an adopted child from South Korea, she faced a difficult start to life. Adopted by a loving American family in Wethersfield, she overcame immense hurdles to become the fearless woman she is today.
