Feeds to Follow #1
Sharing some of my favorite individuals to follow on Instagram!
I truly consider the 1400+ feeds I follow on Instagram a highly curated pack of individuals that inspire me on the daily basis. I openly confess that I might spend way too much time on browsing my feed, but even if it seems to be a form of leisure, it’s 90% work-connected!
