I’m the CEO of Fishwife. I rely on 'monkey bar' meetings and 8-mile runs to get things done.
Fishwife co-founder and CEO Becca Millstein adapts to her fast-growing business by keeping her personal routine as simple and stree-free as possible.
Becca Millstein, the CEO of Fishwife, a tinned seafood company, launched the brand in 2020 after enjoying seafood tapas in Spain. She is a hands-on CEO who balances delegating tasks with retaining her favorite aspects of the business. Millstein's daily routine is simple and focused on productivity. She wakes up at 6:30 or 6:45 am, starts her day with emails and calls, and has a long run each day for about eight miles.
Millstein values the "monkey bar" meetings, which keep the team focused and propel the company forward. She also relies heavily on AI support for note-taking and action item management, which has saved her an estimated five to eight hours of work per week. Millstein does not wear the same outfit every day, but she prefers a simple, focused wardrobe.
After dinner, she unwinds with walks and TV, and has sworn off social media, finding it distracting.
