Fall Book Club at The Vintage Storyteller Reading: Ripening by Sharon Blackie (author of The Enchanted Life)ArtsWhy do we need fairy tales now? Author Sharon Blackie makes the claim that the original fairy tales with their darkness, symbolism and humour guide us through difficult life-journeys in perilous times. Her work has been centred around fairy tales (as well as myth) – as a psychologist, as a mythologist/ folklorist and as a writer and teacher. Fairy tale heroines are resourceful, brave and savvy and engaged with the challenges and possibilities for transformation ahead. Fairy tales are powerful because at the heart of every one of them is transformation. These old stories of the folk that have been handed down to us through so many generations show women what it might look like not just to survive, but to thrive – by moving forward through a challenging world with values shaped by relationship, respect and reciprocity. The stories of fairy tales help us find our bearings and guide us through heartbreaking times. Fairy tales insist that we dig deep for previously unimagined inner resources. They breathe life into our hopes and dreams; they illuminate who we are – and who we might possibly someday become. They show us how to live and how to express our individuality always by gratitude for the surprising and ever-shapeshifting gift of life itself. They teach us to be savvy, inspire us to grow in confidence, show us how to be bold and claim the future we dream of. They show us how to take hold of our own personal narratives and transform them into stories. How can we transform our everyday existence into a meaningful life narrative? We will discuss as the chapters go: budding, flowering, fruiting, ripening and seeding in relation to reimagining our stories across changing lives and changing times and cultivating our “inner imaginarium” through expressive arts. After registering, participants can pick up their book at The Vintage Storyteller. Books will be available a month before class begins. Registration fee includes the hardcover book Kari Ramstrom2026 Fall -

Set achievable short- and long-term financial goals. Create a roadmap toward financial independence and lasting financial confidence. This isn't about complicated investments or "get rich quick" schemes. It's about creating simple, sustainable habits that put you in control of your money instead of your money controlling you. Be prepared to challenge old habits, rethink your relationship with money, and put in the work. Real financial change doesn't happen overnight, but with commitment and the right plan, it is absolutely achievable. Whether you're looking to eliminate debt, stop living paycheck to paycheck, save for your children's education, or retire with confidence, you'll leave this workshop with practical tools, a personalized action plan, and the confidence to move your financial future in the right direction. Your journey from paycheck to prosperity begins here. Kyle Bauman2026 Fall
