Happy “Spotlight Day”! Today we’re shining the spotlight on this week’s most inspiring success stories and tips from the CBQ community.
This week, I’m sharing incredible stories and tips from our members, so let’s dive in!
Inspiring Story
Meet CBQ Program member Sharon Pinto from Ontario, Canada, who has been smoke-free since February 28, 2022. Over 2 years! But her journey to success wasn’t a straight line. She smoked for 27 years and tried to quit many times before becoming a happy non-smoker.
In this new Ask An Ex interview, Sharon openly shares her life, what caused her to fail in the past, and what she learned from each attempt. Above all, she is sharing what changes she made this time and her biggest aha moments with the CBQ Program that helped her succeed! Watch Sharon sharing her story here:
Inspiring Transformation
Today, CBQ Program member Amanda Young from Florida, US, is celebrating 2 years smoke-free! 2 years ago, quitting smoking seemed out of reach. But Amanda joined the CBQ Program and broke free! In her own words “Thank you for reaching out at this 2nd anniversary! God blessed me when I found your program because it gave me the tools I needed to live a better life and break the chains of smoking. I share your method with anyone who is going through the struggle. Thank you for helping lead me to a better lifestyle that once seemed so far out of reach!”

Inspiring Milestone
This week, CBQ Program member Evelyn Neiman Green from North Carolina, US, celebrated 5 years smoke-free! Evelyn was a smoker for 40 years. Her husband also smoked.
As Evelyn told me herself, she had tried to quit before using nicotine patches and e-cigarettes but she always went back to smoking. Her husband went from smoking to vaping and still does both.
That’s how Evelyn knew she needed something different: a process. She joined the CBQ Program, did every step of the process and broke free from nicotine even though her husband smokes. 5 years later, Evelyn is doing so well she even forgot how long she’d been a non-smoker! She also found the right diet for her, and has improved her life in every way! Incredible story!

Tip of The Week
This week’s tip comes from CBQ Program member Bill Coffey from Ohio, US, who quit a month ago, on March 10, 2024… after smoking for 50 years.
Bill was no stranger to failed attempts, but this time, it felt different, and it was, as he said, easier than he ever expected!
Bill’s Tip: Believe change is possible for you.
“I wasn’t aware of the name for what I needed, but I was very sure that what I needed to be a successful non-smoker was to get my thinking in the right place. I believed that from the start.
While going through the process, I made sure that I understood each step and tried to form some idea of how I could use what I learned. Then and only then I moved forward to the next step. Follow the program, do the exercises with an open and honest mind. Everyone is different, so do the program in your own time.
I’m 26 days smoke free, and it has truly been way easier than I ever expected. This program supplied exactly what I needed and I believe it matches what you have confidence in also.
The hardest part is HONESTLY and TRUELY believing what you are changing about your thoughts. Once you have that, you are done being a smoker and have all the tools to stay that way.
Best of luck to you on your journey. You will be counting your non-smoking days soon enough.”
As always, a big thank you goes out to all of our amazing members who gave me permission to share their stories with you.
