BTF # 102 - Finding Reliable Wellness Information
How do you know who to trust in wellness?
With misinformation only increasing online, here’s an episode from the Better Than Fine archive from April of 2022 on how I sort out what information is reliable:
“Wellness” has become a popular trend. Coaches, trainers, psychologists, even celebrities, are putting out information on Instagram, blogs, podcasts, and other social media platforms.
A few ideas I explore and unpack in this episode are:
Why I felt uneasy trusting a lot of wellness advice when I first entered the space and how my science based fitness background shaped the way I think about what is responsible to share.
What people really mean when they say something is evidence based and how to tell the difference between research personal belief and lived experience.
How to decide whether a wellness source is worth your trust by looking at qualifications where the information comes from and what someone might be trying to sell or convince you of.
