Ask an Ex Episode #39

Meet the inspiring CBQ Program member Kathy Hogan from Oregon, US! In this episode, Kathy shares how she improved her health, energy, and overall well-being through the CBQ Program and her faith in God.

In the past few years, Kathy transformed her life in many ways:

  • She quit smoking on August 14, 2021, using the CBQ Quit Smoking Program.
  • In 2024, she joined the CBQ Food Freedom Program, and at 71, her health and energy levels improved more than they had in years.
  • She lost 11 pounds without dieting, went down 2 sizes in her clothes, and reversed a blood disorder that previously required daily injections.

Kathy is an absolute inspiration and her story shows what’s possible when mindset, the right strategy, and faith come together.

Tune in to discover:

  • What Food Freedom meant to Kathy.
  • Why she decided to quit smoking.
