Top Women’s Health Myths—And How to Take Back Control of Your Wellness

By: Alex Kofsky Diamond, NASM-CPT, CNC

When it comes to women’s health and wellness, the noise is loud. From fitness fads to diet trends to self-proclaimed “experts” on social media, we’re constantly being told what we should be doing. One day it’s intermittent fasting or cutting carbs, the next it’s HIIT workouts or going gluten-free—even without a sensitivity.

And if you’re juggling a full-time job, a social life, family responsibilities, and your health… who has time to sort fact from fiction?

That’s where I come in. As a certified women’s health coach, I act as your translator—cutting through the chaos and helping you focus on science-backed strategies that actually work for your body. My mission? To help you reclaim control of your health—without the overwhelm, pressure, or perfectionism.

1. Why Personalized Health Coaching for Women Works

There is no one-size-fits-all solution to feeling your best. Just because your friend thrives on 5am boot camps and celery juice doesn’t mean you will. Your body, goals, lifestyle, and biology are unique. If a plan sounds too good to be true or demands a total life overhaul overnight, it’s likely not sustainable.

Instead, focus on building habits tailored to your body—not someone else’s Instagram highlight reel.

2. Be Careful Where You Get Your Health Advice

That influencer promoting supplements and “fat-burning” workouts might not be sharing evidence-based wellness tips. Don’t confuse influence with expertise.

Your digital space should uplift you, not confuse or shame you. Curate your feed with credible health experts, not diet culture noise. Look for coaches, nutritionists, and personal trainers with real certifications and a client-first approach.

3. Trust Science—Not Trends

The word “healthy” gets thrown around too often. Just because a product is marketed as “clean,” “low-carb,” or “gut-friendly” doesn’t mean it’s right for you. Always question the source.

Or better yet—work with someone who already knows the science and can help you apply it to your real life, whether that’s navigating postpartum wellness, managing an autoimmune condition, or finding balance while on Ozempic.

Reclaim Your Confidence with Real, Lasting Health Habits

You deserve to feel strong, confident, and informed—not stuck in a cycle of guilt, comparison, or “starting over” every Monday. When you stop chasing quick fixes and start tuning into what your body truly needs, that’s when the transformation begins.

If you’re ready to:

• Build a sustainable wellness routine

• Stop second-guessing your health choices

• Finally feel good—physically, mentally, and emotionally
