“I smoked for 25 years, and I knew it was time to stop for my family and to improve my health. Since quitting smoking, I feel healthier, I’ve got more energy, and I’m already noticing the difference in my day-to-day life.

One of the biggest challenges was when I ran out of vape juice and struggled to find a lower-strength refill. It would have been easy to go back to smoking, but I managed without it until I found a shop that stocked what I needed. Looking back, that was a real turning point for me.

Having a coach made a huge difference. I needed the support and encouragement, and knowing someone was checking in to see how I was doing kept me motivated. Hearing someone say they were proud of me made me feel special and gave me the encouragement I needed to carry on.

Now I’m looking forward to my next goal, stopping the vape too. I know if I need help, I can reach out for support again, and that gives me confidence that I can do this as well.”
