Happy “Spotlight Wednesday”! January is almost over, and this week there are so many inspiring people celebrating milestones!

Inspiring Milestone
4 days ago, CBQ Quit Smoking Program member Gloria Pedersen from Alberta, Canada celebrated 3 years smoke-free! Gloria smoked for 48 years and tried many, many times to quit.
One day she found out about the CBQ quit smoking program and joined feeling hopeful and apprehensive. But she followed the process, and she quit.
3 years later Gloria feels still happy to be her!
Gloria’s message for everyone who’s struggling: You are worth it!
This is Gloria with her CBQ Freedom Certificate:
Inspiring Success
This week, CBQ Quit Smoking Program member Laura from England, United Kingdom celebrated 6 months smoke-free. Laura smoked for 17 years and found quitting smoking so easy that “it doesn’t even register as part of my life anymore”
Tip of the Week: Make yourself number one in your own life!
This week’s tip comes from CBQ Program member Paula Torke from Texas, US who went back and forth with smoking almost all her life.
She tried using willpower, but it didn’t work. She spent $500 on quit smoking medication, but that didn’t work either. Then Paula chose to do the CBQ Program, and not only it worked – it’s been 4 freeing years since her quit!
This is what Paula shared:
Inspiring Milestone
This week, our wonderful CBQ Program member Sue Lee from England, UK celebrated 5 years smoke-free! Sue broke a 40-year addiction after many failed attempts.
Sue had a very strong behavioral attachment to smoking. She shared that she was “the worst kind” of smoker… “first thing in the morning last thing at night. If I could smoke in the bath I would have…”
She decided to gift herself the CBQ Program, started watching the process with a mix of fear and excitement, and followed every step at her own pace.
The result?
She finally broke free!
On her 3-year milestone, Sue still can’t believe how easy it was!
5 years after her quit date, Sue is still a happy non-smoker
As always, a big thank you to all our members who shared their stories! I hope this week’s spotlights inspired you and showed you that you too can succeed.
To your freedom,
