Happy “Spotlight Day”! I’m thrilled to share with you this week’s most inspiring success stories and tips from the CBQ community. Let’s spread some inspiration!
Inspiring Transformation
This week, CBQ Program member Scotty Smith from California, US, celebrated 1 year smoke-free. Scotty started smoking in high school and had been smoking all his life. He had tried every option to quit but nothing worked. At 71 years old, he had almost given up hope that he would ever be free, until he came across the CBQ Program. Scotty saw this was an award-winning program different from everything else and he really wanted to try it, so he asked his wife if they could afford him joining. She said YES and their lives changed forever!
Not only did Scotty quit smoking successfully a year ago… he used the CBQ Program lessons to also quit alcohol and weed 7 months ago!
3 months after his quit date, Scotty shared this:
1 year later, he’s still over the moon with his success!

Tip of the Week
This week’s tip comes from CBQ Program member Teri Edge from West Virginia, US, a smoker of 44 years who will be celebrating 3 years smoke-free later this month!
Before quitting smoking with the CBQ Program, Teri had tried hypnosis (both in individual and group settings), quit smoking apps, the American Heart Association, and more!
After joining the CBQ Program, she found quitting smoking EASY!
Below are Teri’s tips to success:
- Make a commitment with yourself that you will quit no matter what happens.
- Trust the program and follow it as well as you possibly can (because it does work)
- Stay positive! You absolutely can and will quit!
It works, I promise!!! I smoked for 44 years. Sept. 19th will be 3 years smoke free!! Believe me if I can do this, anyone can. Do the work. You are worth it!!! You won’t believe how great it feels to be free!!!
Inspiring Achievement
This week, CBQ Program member Mark Spong from Canberra, Australia shared with our members group his success photo to celebrate his 1 year-milestone!
Mark was a skeptic who thought willpower was – hard, but – the only way to quit smoking. After completing the CBQ Program he smoked his last cigarette and has remained smoke-free without any willpower!
This is Mark’s post with his CBQ Success Certificate:
And 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!
