Systems That Spark
Turn Ideas Into Actions
Productivity tools for creatives who want to stop procrastinating—and start executing—without sacrificing imagination or flow.
Why I Created ECG Edit
Hi, I’m Emily Cegielski Gianakos—a journalist and editor who’s spent over a decade juggling deadlines, invoices, and anxiety while working for major media brands. Even with Virgo-level standards for order, I found myself overwhelmed, burned out, and buried under to-do lists that didn’t help me actually do. That’s why I created ECG Edit: a space where creatives like you can find no-BS productivity tools that actually work—for real, messy, imaginative humans. No toxic hustle. No corporate jargon. Just editorial-grade clarity wrapped in flow-friendly systems.
