September Book Club Meetup

Welcome, readers! Our September read is ***Amity and Prosperity: One Family and the Fracturing of America*** by Eliza Griswold. A Pulitzer Prize-winning nonfiction book detailing the 318-page true story of Stacey Haney, a single mother and nurse in rural Washington County, Pennsylvania, whose family suffered severe illnesses after leasing their land for fracking. **Please note our location change:** We will meet at **The Pub Out Back** in their Room Out Back space. We are welcome to bring in our own food, but **drinks must be purchased at the bar.** Parking is available in the public lot off of W New England Ave or on-street in the Old Worthington area. Happy reading!

Meet the Inner Critic

**A research-backed evening on the voice that says "you should have this figured out by now" and whether it's actually true.** You've recently retired, or you're getting close. Somewhere between "I finally have time for me" and "is this really it," a voice keeps showing up. It says you should already have this figured out. That wanting more is ungrateful. That you're too old to start over. Here's a question worth sitting with: is any of that true, or is it just a sentence you've been carrying so long it feels like fact? That's what we're digging into at this month's What's Next Circle session, built around *Take Back Your Brain* by Kara Loewentheil. No spiritual talk, no manifestation, just a clear look at the difference between what actually happened in your life and the story you've quietly attached to it. This isn't a book club. You don't need to have read anything. Whether you were with us for *The Unwritten Chapter* or this is your very first time in the room, you're exactly on time. What to expect: * 90 minutes, small group, real conversation * No prep, no homework, no pressure to share more than you're comfortable with * One idea to test out in your own life this week
