Happy “Spotlight Day”!
Today, I’m excited to share with you some of this week’s most inspiring success stories and tips from the CBQ community. (And there are so many!!)
Let’s dive in.
Inspiring Milestone
This week, CBQ Program member Diane Zukowski (née Felix) from Vermont, US, celebrated 7 years smoke-free. Diane used to smoke cigarettes and cigarillos. As Diane told me herself during her Ask An Ex interview, almost all her life, smoking felt like a friend and a way to cope with her anxiety and chronic pain.
Diane has always been a very strong and independent woman, and she hated depending on cigarettes for everything. She wanted to quit, but nothing worked until one day she found the CBQ Program and decided to join. She committed fully to the process, and the rest is history. She quit on March 15, 2018.
Within 5 years she saved $21,000 USD (which she invested and more than doubled). Most importantly, she regained her health and freedom.
7 years after her quit date, Diane is still over the moon with her success!

Inspiring Success
CBQ Program member Fiona Hims from Warwickshire, United Kingdom, celebrated 3 years smoke-free. In her own words “I quit smoking on 16 March 2022 and feel very proud of my achievement, having made numerous failed attempts to quit over many years!
Nasia’s cognitive behaviour approach made complete sense right from the start and changing my smoking pattern from as early as Day 4 did not fill me with panic but with curiosity and desire. For me, that was different to any other method.”
…”I want to thank Nasia for producing such great videos, always understanding my ‘demons’ and welcoming me to her on-line program with love and compassion. Nasia – you are a very special human being. Your visualization was particularly powerful.
I don’t like smoking or hate smoking…….I just choose not to smoke any more. I am happy with my decision to choose freedom and would encourage anyone who wants the benefits of being a non-smoker to start this journey. You will start feeling like the real, best, healthiest version of you within a very short time!”

Fiona also joined the CBQ Food Freedom Program, which helped her overcome sugar dependence and completely transform her relationship with food – a gift for life! If you’re interested in the CBQ Food Freedom Program, you can join the waitlist here.
Now she’s the healthiest, happiest, and most at peace she’s ever been.
Inspiring Journey
This week, CBQ Program member Dara Laughlin from New Hampshire, US, celebrated 1 year smoke-free!
Dara knew she had to quit smoking after suffering a heart attack, but she wasn’t sure how to do it, or if she could make it last.
While in the hospital, doctors told her that smoking was her only risk factor for another heart attack and gave her a nicotine patch.
But when she got home, Dara searched for a better way. She found the CBQ Method, took off her patch, joined the CBQ Program…
And she quit for good!

Inspiring Milestone – Quit Vaping
Today, CBQ Program member Caleb Thompson from Virginia, US, is celebrating 2 years vape-free!
Caleb was addicted to vaping and never thought he’d quit, let alone find it easy! This is what he said: “I’m seriously so, so happy with your program. I never, ever thought I’d be able to quit vaping at all, much less quit so easily but I never even have come close to relapsing!” “This is easily the best-working product in my life and I couldn’t be happier.”

To your freedom,
