FamilyNutrition, Life Thoughts and Adventures
Hi, I'm Coreen Ward.
Welcome to my blog.
I am a mother to one sweet boy,
wife to one supportive husband,
owner of one crazy hairless cat,
and an explorer to one adventurous life.
I teach pilates and am a nutrition enthusiast with a fascination for functional medicine.
I love sharing nutrition tips, recipes and creative solutions for the whole family.
