Woman golfer in need of help!?

I am 30 years old and I never touched a golf club until 6 weeks ago. I am addicted to it! However I get conflicting advice on my driving stance. People tellme that women need to keep their feet a little farther apart because we have wider hips and then I also get people telling me to keep my head down. I find this difficult to do especially when my natural tendency is to move my head in my final through of my swing. HELLLP! Any little bit of advice I appreciate.
