You’ve been told a lie about overeating—and it’s the reason your arms still don’t look the way you want.
The lie? That food is in charge. That once you start, you can’t stop. That you have an “addictive personality” and no control around food.
But here’s the truth: you are not powerless. And in this episode, I’m breaking down exactly why that story has kept you stuck, soft, and frustrated—and how to flip the script so you can finally eat like a naturally toned woman.
Listen in and discover:
The sneaky thoughts disguised as “personality” that are sabotaging your arms.
Why emotional hunger feels so real—and how to tell it apart from true hunger.
How your brain’s reward system tricks you into overeating (and how to outsmart it).
The controversial mindset shift that instantly puts you back in charge of food.
This isn’t another diet pep talk. This is about calling out the biggest myth women over 50 are told about food—and showing you how to reclaim your power so your arms, and your life, finally reflect the strength you already have.
And if this message hits home, my new course How To Eat Like a Naturally Toned Woman takes everything we cover here and shows you step by step how to apply it—so you never again have to say, “Once I start, I can’t stop.”

084: Why Hiding From the Mirror Is Making Your Arms Flabbier
Are you avoiding the mirror, dodging photos, or swearing off sleeveless tops until your arms are “good enough”? In this episode of The Arm Coach Podcast, Kristine exposes the hidden danger of isolation and why hiding from your body is the very thing keeping you stuck.
You’ll learn how the think–feel–act cycle is secretly running your results, why the mirror and the scale are completely neutral, and how your thoughts—not your circumstances—are what create shame, desire, and frustration. Kristine shares her own story of hiding from the scale for years and how avoiding the data only made her weaker.
If you’ve been convincing yourself that “removing temptation” or “avoiding triggers” is the solution, this episode will be a wake-up call. True change doesn’t come from hiding. It comes from facing your thoughts, questioning them, and building the mental muscle that creates naturally toned arms.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
Why avoiding mirrors, scales, or photos keeps you stuck in the same cycle
How the think–feel–act cycle determines your results with toning your arms
The dangerous lie behind “protecting yourself” from triggers
How to face your thoughts head-on so you can finally step into confidence
If you’re ready to stop hiding, challenge your thoughts, and create the arms and self-trust you’ve been chasing, this episode is for you.

083: From “All-or-Nothing” to All-In: Ditch the Labels and Finally Get Results
Do you ever catch yourself saying things like...
“I’m too old to get toned arms.” “I’ve always been all-or-nothing.” “I just don’t have the discipline.”
These aren’t harmless thoughts—they’re labels. And in this episode, we’re unpacking how these labels shape your identity, fuel self-sabotage, and keep you stuck in the very patterns you’re trying to change.
Whether you've labeled yourself as “inconsistent,” “unmotivated,” “emotional eater,” or just feel like you’ve let yourself go, this episode will help you rethink the way you see yourself—and show you why you are not the problem.
Inside this episode:
Why fitness culture pushes black-and-white labels (and why they’re outdated)
How your environment—not your character—is often the real obstacle
The difference between “recovering” and growing
Why you don’t need a label to build consistency, strength, or trust
How to start rewiring your brain without shame or perfectionism
If you’ve ever felt stuck, too far gone, or just “not the type” to follow through—this one’s for you.
Let’s drop the labels and start building something new.
