🏆 𝗕𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸𝗹𝘆 𝗣𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻
Congratulations to Mary Beth MacMillan, Osteopathic Manual Practitioner, this week’s Best Weekly Presentation winner at BNI Beach Biz! With the chapter leaning into a Halloween theme, Mary Beth turned “trick or treatment” into the winning line, joking about getting mistaken for a witch these past two months while making clear there’s no broom or spellcasting involved. Just two hands, ten fingers, and a knack for releasing the restrictions buried deep in the body that keep people aching and awake at night.

If you know someone haunted by stiff, sore joints, send them Mary Beth’s way.

🏆 𝗕𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸𝗹𝘆 𝗣𝗶𝘁𝗰𝗵 | 𝗕𝗡𝗜 𝗕𝗲𝗮𝗰𝗵 𝗕𝗶𝘇
This week’s Oscar goes to Branshe Schutz of CertaPro Painters of East York/Don Mills 🎨

This fall, Branshe is thinking pink. Through CertaPro’s 𝗣𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘁 𝗜𝘁 𝗣𝗶𝗻𝗸 campaign in October and November, a portion of every job goes to Breast Cancer Canada. And no, your walls don’t have to be pink. Keep them neutral and still support something that matters.
Taina chose Branshe to celebrate a business that gives back with both its time and its money.

Know someone who’s been meaning to paint? This fall is the time to send them Branshe’s way. 💗
Congratulations, Branshe! 👏
