Join Ellie for this week’s episode of A Day In Her Life with Virginia Frischkorn, founder of Partytrick, mom of two, and multi-city entrepreneur splitting her time between Colorado and New York. Virginia shares what her full, structured, and chaotic days look like as she builds a tech startup, parents solo half the time, and still finds space for joy, movement, and community.
In this episode, we cover:
- Early Riser Energy: How Virginia wakes up at 3:30 AM for deep work, coffee, and breathwork before life begins.
- Structured Chaos: How she balances two kids, multiple sports schedules, and a growing startup—with no nanny and lots of color-coded calendars.
- Parallel Parenting & Flexibility: Her honest approach to co-parenting and how she keeps transitions smooth (two sets of gear included).
- Movement & Mindfulness: Why she swears by breathwork, intentional movement, and daily walks as non-negotiable self-care.
- Founding Partytrick: How losing her father led to a purpose-driven career shift—turning her luxury events company into a tech platform helping people gather with ease.
- Friendship Systems: Why she uses Asana to remind her to check in with friends and how intentional connection keeps loneliness at bay.
This episode is an inspiring, relatable look at modern motherhood, entrepreneurship, and finding structure inside chaos.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
