In this week’s episode of A Day in Her Life, Ellie sits down with Christina Pardy— marketing consultant, founder of the beloved knitwear brand Sh*t That I Knit, mom of two (with one on the way), and Boston city-dweller navigating life after selling her business.
Christina shares candidly about what her days look like right now, from 5 AM coffee walks and pancake breakfasts with her girls to building a more flexible consulting career. She opens up about shifting her identity after selling her company, the role her nanny plays in helping her feel like a better mom, and why she’s embracing flexibility during this season of life.
We also chat about:
- Life After Selling a Business: How Christina is redefining her work and identity post- Sh*t That I Knit.
- Support Systems: The role of her nanny and personal assistant in creating structure and making motherhood more manageable.
- Flexibility & Identity: Why she’s leaning into a new rhythm that prioritizes both family and career in sustainable ways.
- City vs. Suburbs: Why city living works for their family (and why she’s team city all the way).
- Creativity & Sales: The passions that fueled her as a founder and continue to spark her next chapter.
This is an inspiring, honest look at motherhood, transitions, and building a life you actually want—without burning yourself out.
