"Noam’s wellness Instagram page was a missing part of my life that I didn’t know I needed. Being in the science field, I always felt pressure to only present myself in a formal light and felt a great deal of stress to enjoy the wonderful things in life. Seeing how Noam balances medical school, while incorporating self-love, exercise, and mental health promoting activities into her daily life, has shown me that we don’t need to wait to take care of ourselves until we are very sick or have received a diagnosis, but rather, we have a responsibility to ourselves and our communities of being our best."
“I found Noam through her clothing line, Inclusive Health Collection, during the 2020 holiday season. This is a time that many people are usually full of joy but I instead find myself struggling with my self worth. Noam’s account and her clothes’ positive messaging really helped making this year different and remind me “health is not just what you eat”. I realized that I am allowed to enjoy the Christmas cookie without raging war on myself afterwards."
"I am a premed student and it has been hard for me to find other people with the mindset that Noam has. She has also helped me learn to be more gentle with myself and to allow myself to enjoy treats without feeling negative afterwards. Noam has helped me in my journey to heal my relationship with food."
"Following Noam has allowed me to feel so much more comfortable and confident in myself. I have learned to not feel guilty or down on days when I am not as motivated. She has changed my mindset for the better and I am greatly thankful for it."
"As a pre-med student, I worry a lot about medical school. Specifically, I am very anxious about being able to balance other aspects of my life while in medicine. Noam’s account is a breath of fresh air. I remember being surprised to see that she was a medical student as her life seemed so happy and full. I instantly felt connected to her. Unlike other influencers, Noam shows us reality, the good and bad days. Following her has made me feel less alone in my day to day and my career struggles."
"Although I am not personally in the medical field, I find Noam’s content so inspiring. Society’s vision of being a medical student is very draining and tells us that one will be sad and stressed all the time and you cannot practice self care or take care of yourself. Noam completely dismantles this idea. Noam has taught me I can focus on my dreams, be in school and still take care of myself. She has inspired me to become the best version of myself. "
"Noam portrays a healthy lifestyle with a lot of authenticity. Some days she shows herself waking up early, eating nutritious food and exercising. Other days, she shows that she stayed in bed til noon, ate chocolate and took a whole weekend off studying. With Noam, I am being “influenced” in such a positive way and that way am slowly overcoming academic pressure, diet culture and the state of constant dissatisfaction with myself. While social media might have contributed to the fact that I had to deal with these problems in the first place, Noam proves that it can also have incredibly positive effects. She acts as a role model, big sister and “girl boss”.
