Happy “Spotlight Day”! Today I’m excited to share with you this week’s most inspiring success stories and tips from the CBQ community…. including a brand new Ask An Ex episode!
Inspiring Story
Meet CBQ Program member Tim Roberts from Queensland, Australia who has been a happy non-smoker since July 8, 2022. Nearly 2 years! But Tim’s journey to success had lots of ups and downs.
Tim smoked his first cigarette when he was 14 years old and smoked on and off for over 50 years. Throughout life, he also became addicted to alcohol and food. He was, as he told me a “perfectionist emotional cripple” and vices became his go to coping mechanisms. Even though Tim eventually quit alcohol, he could not let go of his cigarettes (a story I know many of you share).
But after joining the CBQ Program, Tim became a happy non-smoker. Soon after his quit date, Tim used the CBQ Program to also change his relationship with food, and lost 28kg (60 pounds)!
In this new Ask An Ex interview, Tim openly shares his life, the tragedy that caused him to relapse in the past, and what he did differently this time. Above all, he is sharing his biggest aha moments with the CBQ Program that helped him break free.

Inspiring Success: Smoke-Free After 56 Years
This week, CBQ Program member Mary Anne DiNublia from California, US, celebrated 1 year smoke-free. Mary Anne broke a 56-year addiction! After nearly 6 decades of smoking and multiple failed attempts, she never imagined this program would work, but she wanted to try, and she succeeded!
In her own words “I smoked for 56 years and all my past attempts at quitting failed, so I was surprised and elated that this method worked.” “This program helped me develop self-mastery over my life, making me feel empowered. My life keeps getting better and better without the mental and physical addiction pulling me down. Thank you Nasia and the team at CBQ for giving me back my life.”
Since quitting smoking, Mary Anne feels better physically and mentally. She’s happier!

She’s glowing, right?!
Inspiring Milestone
A few days ago, CBQ Program member Lisa Cunningham from British Columbia, Canada, celebrated 2 years smoke-free. After tons of research Lisa joined the CBQ Program with the desire to cut down on her smoking, and hopefully… quit. She wasn’t sure if she could stop smoking completely. All she knew is that she would do her best.
On Day 10 of the program, Lisa smoked her last cigarette and the rest is history. “Smoked my last cigarette at 9:30 p.m. May 17 crushed it, did everything according to plan. This really is an amazing program.”
This is the advice Lisa shared with the CBQ Community:

As always, I want to say a big thank you to all our members who gave me permission to share their stories.
