What an amazing idea! Nominate your favourite businesses today ❤️

💚 INTRODUCING LOCAL LOVE 💚

We believe strong communities are built by people who support one another — and there are SO many incredible local businesses throughout Central Alberta that deserve a little extra love.

So, we're starting something new at Edwards & Holloway...

Each month, we'll choose one local business to be our Local Love feature! 💚

We'll introduce them here on our page, share a little about what makes them special, and give their team an Edwards & Holloway perk for the month.

And the best part? We want YOU to help us choose.

Each month, we'll ask our community to nominate the local businesses they think deserve a little extra love.

So let's get started! 👇

💚 Who should be our September Local Love?

Tag a Central Alberta business in the comments and tell us why you think they deserve some Local Love.

Maybe it's...

☕ The coffee shop that knows your order
🛍️ The little store you always recommend
🍽️ A locally owned restaurant you love
💚 A business that quietly gives back to the community
👏 Or simply a team that deserves a little recognition

Big or small — we want to hear about them.

We'll choose our September feature from your nominations and introduce them right here on our page!

Let's show some Local Love. 💚

💚 We need your help! Who should be our first Local Love feature?

Edwards & Holloway Health & Wellness
Professional Therapists, Quality Care.

Growth doesn’t always come from the moments we plan for. Sometimes it comes from the moments that challenge us the most.

Life—both personally and professionally—doesn’t always go according to plan. Setbacks and hard lessons can feel like failure, but they also give us the opportunity to grow. We can’t change the past, but we can choose how we shape our future.

Over the past while, I’ve been investing in myself and in Business Boutique, working alongside some incredible professionals to grow both personally and professionally. I’m so excited to share that there are some amazing new additions and elevated services coming soon, and I can’t wait to show you what we’ve been building behind the scenes.

To every client who has trusted me, referred me, supported me, or simply cheered me on—thank you. ❤️ I truly thought the phones would quiet down after tax season, but thanks to your continued support, they’ve only been ringing more.

I’m incredibly grateful, and this is just the beginning. Here’s to growth, new opportunities, and serving this amazing community even better.

Stay tuned… exciting things are coming.

✨✨✨✨✨
