Here at South Austin Moms, we are all about supporting small businesses. I truly feel they make the world go round – seeing someone pour their passion and heart into a business to help others is so inspiring! Today we’ll meet Kati of MoveWithMeMama – which is exactly what is sounds like, a program to get moving after baby. Kati is more than just a fitness instructor, her passion lies with women as they begin or continue their motherhood journey. Enjoy!
