What this episode covers

When the power goes out or the storm rolls in, the last thing you need is more panic. In this episode, we’re talking about how to build your 72-hour kit—what I lovingly call your Peace of Mind Bag. You don’t need camo, tactical gear, or a six-figure budget to get prepared. You just need a few basic supplies and a little bit of heart. I’ll share real-life-inspired stories (that might sound familiar), what to pack for humans, pets, and cars, and how to make this doable—even if you’ve never packed an emergency bag before. Spoiler alert: the goal isn’t perfection. It’s peace. Let’s build it together.
