Join Us for This Week’s Episode of A Day In Her Life with Ciji Townsend – Full, Balanced, and Joyfully Intentional Days

This week, Ellie sits down with Ciji Townsend, corporate communicator, keynote speaker, founder of Balanced Not Busy, and mom based in Atlanta. Known for her refreshing take on time, balance, and presence, Ciji shares how she structures her days to support both her ambition and her well-being.

What We Discuss:

Listening to Her Body: Why Ciji lets her body guide how she starts her mornings—and how that sets the tone for her day.

The Burner Theory: Ciji’s framework for throttling her energy and focus based on what she needs most in a given moment.

Evening Prep for Morning Ease: The nighttime routines that make her mornings smooth and stress-free.

Shifting Household Labor: How an annual planning session with her husband led to a more balanced division of responsibilities—including weekend dinners.

Fun Food Fridays: The family tradition that makes Friday nights joyful and easy.

To-Do Lists & Prioritization: Her approach to staying focused and productive without the overwhelm.

Founding Balanced Not Busy: What inspired her to start the platform and her mission to connect with women in all life stages.

Making Time for Marriage: How she and her husband create intentional time together—including making the most of work travel.

This episode is full of wisdom, practical systems, and heartfelt reflections for women looking to lead more intentional, values-aligned lives without the pressure of doing it all.
