Kat inokai is Bumpandhustle on Instagram and the internets and is one of my favourite people in the world even though I’ve only had the opportunity to talk to her a few times before.
In weird times like these it’s a really great reminder for me that we’re lucky to have access to the lives of people like Kat who share their wisdom with us daily. She also seems to have a really rad family which is no surprise given the geeky cool parenting inspiration they have.
