Happy “Spotlight Day”! I think you’ll love this week’s most inspiring stories from the CBQ community!
Inspiring Couple
This week, Carson and Chris Lammers from Tennessee, US, celebrated together 1 year smoke-free! Carson and Chris had been smoking all their lives, and cigarettes had become a part of their relationship: the time they shared and the conversations they had. Carson and Chris were both unhappy about being smokers, yet they couldn’t quit. They “made some weak attempts over the years to quit, once with vaping and several times with willpower, but we always relapsed.” One day, Carson and Chris found the CBQ webinar, and despite being afraid and skeptical, they decided to join the CBQ Program. They succeeded, and one year later, they’re still smoke-free and happy!
This is Carson and Chris with their CBQ success certificates, that they took during their anniversary trip to St. Lucia in the Caribbean.
Carson shares, “I like to call my picture “Put the Mountain Behind You,” because that’s what it felt like to conquer my addiction.” 🎊
Carson’s quit smoking tip: make a real decision.
“In the CBQ Program, I made a decision as part of the teaching instruction. That led to me being able to quit smoking, and I gained newfound confidence because I had actually done what I decided to do. The “make a decision” technique has helped me so much in other areas of my life besides smoking. We are forever grateful! Carson and Chris”
Inspiring Milestone: 6 Years
Two days ago, CBQ Program member Elinor Fibel from South Carolina, US, celebrated 6 years smoke-free! Elinor used to smoke 2 and a half packs a day for 55 years. She tried all stop smoking approaches – pills, nicotine gum, hypnosis and pure willpower – more than once.
After coming across the CBQ Program online, she thought it was something different and decided to join and give it her all….She succeeded!
This is Elinor holding her CBQ Success Certificate:

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!
