CBQ Spotlights

Happy Spotlight Day! I’m excited to share with you this week’s highlight from the CBQ community!

Inspiring Success

CBQ Program member Louise O’Reilly from Ireland celebrated 1 year smoke-free! Louise was a smoker for over 30 years, with 20 of those years actively trying to quit. She made quit attempts using the nicotine patch, vaping, and willpower but always felt deprived and eventually went back to smoking.

In her own words, “Every other quit I had I was just miserable, on reflection this was because I was using willpower but once Nasia and the team introduced me to Mindpower and all the other tools my confidence soared and our community kept me inspired and motivated to quit, more importantly to be happy with my decision to quit and I have never looked back, you all have me High on Life and I could not be more grateful to you all and for you all Thank you, thank you, thank you, I feel this program helped me to unleash my superpower as I have felt so happy and unstoppable since I became a proud and Happy non smoker”

Happy Spotlight Day! I’m excited to share with you this week’s news and most inspiring stories and tips from the CBQ community!

Let’s dive into this week’s spotlights!

Inspiring Success – Vaping

CBQ Program member Amber McKinney from Texas, US, celebrated 2 years nicotine-free! Amber was addicted to nicotine for 20 years. She never really tried to quit vaping because she didn’t believe she could. After seeing success stories from CBQ Program members, she decided to join the program and succeeded!

“I remember seeing all the success stories when I was in the beginning phase of my path to freedom and thinking how in the world am I going to do this lol…not sure where you’re at in your journey but you can do it one breath at a time!”

Now Amber is a happy non-vaper and enjoying beautiful glowing skin and healthy lungs!

“I’m free of nicotine (20 year addiction) and an extremely happy non-vaper! Your program is incredible and saved my life. My skin is loving the increased blood flow and all the oxygen. Life after nicotine is so peaceful.

Once you’ve seen the truth about Big Nicotine and all it’s lies, it’s challenging to unsee it. I was worried about alcohol but I realize that’s a limiting belief now.”

“For those on the program, don’t rush yourself! If you need to spend more than 1 day on a certain topic, do it. It can take time to really let the material sink into your brain and re-wire how you think.”

This is the amazing Amber with her CBQ Success Certificate:

Inspiring Milestone

This week, CBQ Program member Carolyn Curtis from Ohio, US, celebrated 4 years smoke-free! Carolyn’s journey started with the belief it could work out.

After smoking for 45 years and trying every approach, Carolyn knew she needed a plan to succeed, and she knew the CBQ Program was that plan for her. She was proven right!

This is what Carolyn posted on her quit date (Day 10 of the CBQ Program)

Tip of the Week

This week’s tip comes from CBQ Program member Paula Beck Ashley from California, US, who has been smoke-free since March 17, 2024!

Paula’s powerful tips for success and choosing your quit date:

“I smoked for over 50 years and I didn’t flip out. Instead of fear, try turning it into excitement. Something to look forward to. We all have the nicotine demon inside us, tempting us, telling us things we don’t want to hear. When this happens, change your thoughts like changing the channel on tv. Or, go for a walk, change your environment, take deep cleansing breaths. You need to slay that demon and be a better person for it! I am now going on 10 months of being a Happy Non-Smoker!!! I didn’t think I would ever get here! One other thing I did was to put post-it notes in the areas where I smoked. I smoked outside, so I put them on the door. The post-it notes had phrases as to why I wanted, or needed, to stop! JUST STOP!!! Stop overthinking it and just do it! I had to postpone my quit date a week until I totally understood the difference between will power and mind power.”

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.

All the best,

Nasia

Tip of the Week

This week’s tip comes from CBQ Program member Cari Lucas from West Virginia, US, who has been smoke-free since November 17, 2024!

Cari’s tip on the fear of failure:

“I was afraid if failure too. I’m sure many of us have tried many times to quit. I didn’t think I was ready either and set my quit date at 3 weeks out from the start of the program. I dud the program completely but slowly in order to delay as much as possible giving myself excuses. I did however finish in that 3 weeks, did all the exercises and recorded all my cigarettes for that amount of time. I am no w a happy nonsmoker after 40 years. Don’t let the fear hold you back from obtaining freedom.”

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.

All the best,

Nasia

On behalf of the entire CBQ Method team, we wish you to thrive in 2025!

May this new year be filled with possibility, release you from old burdens and enrich your life in every way.

To celebrate this new beginning, I can’t wait to share with you this week’s news and most inspiring stories and tips from the CBQ community!

Let’s dive in.

Inspiring Milestone

Yesterday, CBQ Program member Fred Berish from Arizona, US, celebrated 5 years smoke-free!

Fred was a smoker all his life. During his Ask An Ex interview, he shared that he started thinking about quitting when he turned 50 years old, because he wanted to make sure he’s around his family for as long as possible. Trying to quit, Fred used patches, medication and hypnosis but always felt deprived and relapsed because of cravings.

Because of his past failed attempts, Fred was skeptical when he found the CBQ Program, but he decided he would try.

The outcome shocked him. This is what Fred said:

5 years later, he’s still a happy non-smoker!

Inspiring Success

This week CBQ Program member Christine Anne from California, US, celebrated 1 year smoke-free! Christine joined the CBQ Program filled with doubt and hope. During the program, she learned the difference between mindpower and willpower, and everything changed for her.

“Thought today was 365 but it appears yesterday marked my 1 full year of being a NON-smoker! I’m so proud of myself and very happy! And I catch myself thinking “this time was so easy I just wish I had figured it out that 1st time I tried to quit!” But better late than never, as the saying goes. I will say the true difference is mind power vs will power and mind power is learning to turn off or stop the thought of wanting a cigarette, willpower is we sit and dwell on the thoughts and just try to resist acting on it, most of us have failed quit attempts because of this. As most of you know I did quit before starting the program due to procrastination, but then started to go through the program looking to help reinforce my quit. Doing so I found out what I had been doing (changing my smoking habits, challenging myself to not smoke at times I smoked the most (like driving) and using my mind to delay or refrain from smoking (I didn’t know it was called mind power then). By learning I could delay or cut out cigarettes from my daily routine and use my mind to stop the thought of smoking from settling into my brain and playing on a loop seriously helped in quitting. And going through most of this program made me see my actions leading up to smoking my last cigarette were exactly what Nasia teaches and has you practice each day in the program. Be kind to yourselves, stay positive, practice each lesson and work on not relying on willpower but mind power to stop and remove your thoughts of wanting to smoke in the moment(s). Practice and keep an open, positive mind frame and remember why you bought the program and just don’t give up on yourselves. You too can become a happy, NON-smoker!”

Tip of the Week

This week’s tip comes from CBQ Program member Patty Davis from Florida, US. Patty smoked for 30 years and then vaped for 10 years.

“I was so proud to quit smoking by vaping. After a couple years of vaping, it became just as or more addicting than smoking. I really dug into and took seriously the program. I ended up redoing several days over as I was too scared and not ready to really quit.”

By following the CBQ Program, Patty became ready, and she quit!

“I thank God and the CBQ Method program and all the CBQ workers. Thank you!”

Patty’s tip: Trust the process

“Just take it a day at a time , do everything that course tells you to do. Don’t skip anything, don’t change anything and somehow, miraculously, your mind changes and you’re able to do it.”

A big thank you to all our members who shared their stories!

Inspiring Quit Smoking Benefits

This week, CBQ Program member Jennifer Jaremback from New Jersey, US, celebrated 3 years smoke-free! Jennifer’s story is amazing.

She’s an attorney and she’s been able to achieve great success in life – quitting smoking was the only thing holding her back. But after finding the CBQ Program, this changed! She broke free!

“I just completed the program, and would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart. I’m an attorney and have been lucky to find much success in my life at 41 years old. However, the one thing I could not beat was my smoking addiction. I have been smoking since I was 16, so for 25 years. I am so happy happy to report that I quit smoking with your program on December 20th, 2021.”

3 years after her quit date, Jennifer is still a happy non-smoker! The best thing? Shortly after quitting smoking, she became pregnant and is now celebrating Christmas with her precious daughter Julia!

Stories like these fuel the soul of my team and me—they’re the reason we do what we do!

Inspiring Transformation

This week, CBQ Program member Charlot Juroshek from Montana, US, celebrated 6 months smoke-free! Charlot was a smoker all her life and believed, to her core, she’s too addicted to quit smoking. In fact, she did not even want to quit because she didn’t believe she could.

While thinking about her health, she hesitantly looked for ways to stop smoking online and found the CBQ Program. With a leap of faith and the mindset she got nothing to lose, she joined the program.

To her surprise, she quit on day 3 of the CBQ program! In her own words “Never wanted to quit, never thought I could but I AM NOW A HAPPY EX-SMOKER! I actually quit on the 3rd day of your program, actually MY BODY quit…and I just followed it through using your wonderful, lifesaving method! THANK YOU SO MUCH!”

This is Charlot sharing her photo with her framed CBQ Success Certificate:

Today, I’m excited to share with you this week’s most inspiring success stories and tips from the CBQ community!

Inspiring Success

CBQ Program member Kay from Massachusetts, US, celebrated a huge milestone this week!

For decades, Kay made “Quit Smoking” her top New Year’s Resolution. But every year, she found herself falling back into old habits—a cycle that left her feeling defeated and disheartened.

As an advanced practice nurse, Kay knew the toll smoking was taking on her health, but nothing seemed to work. Then she discovered the CBQ Program. Intrigued by its unique approach, she took a leap of faith, joined the program, and fully committed to the process.

The result? Life-changing.

Within just one year, Kay’s body had already begun to heal from 37 years of smoking.

Years later, Kay is STILL thrilled about her success. This is what she shared this week:

So inspiring, right?

You can watch Kay sharing her story in this Ask An Ex Episode!

Tip of the Week

This week’s tip comes from CBQ Program member Jodi Woods from Wisconsin, US. Jodi was a smoker for 47 years, and had 14 failed attempts before succeeding with the CBQ Program on February 11, 2020.

Over the last 4 years, Jodi has been sharing remarkable advice with the CBQ Program community and has helped hundreds, if not thousands, of CBQ Program members.

Her tip: Start with an intention

“The first step to getting what we want for ourselves (our goal) is to set the intention. It drives both our direction and our accountability. If this is your intention then you can certainly make this happen for good this time.

You did it before; you discovered something important you still needed to learn/prepare for and now you’re going to continue on with more experience.

We’re always here for you!”

As always, I want to say a huge thank you to our amazing CBQ Program members who have given me permission to share their stories!
