Survival: Beyond the Bug-Out Bag Bill Bateman We all agree that being prepared for an emergency is essential. That's why preparing a "Bug Out Bag" that you can grab and go in an emergency can be a lifesaver. It also opens the door to deeper dives in planning and prepping that can be critical. I began posting information here over 10 years ago, and I regularly update it. I've also gone beyond the traditional products. Because creating "the bag" is just the first step to being prepared, not the final product. We now know we each need at least 30 days' worth of essential supplies, like food, water, and medicine. We must be our own first responders.I cover topics like:*Products I both use and trust.*Often forgotten items you need to have in your bag.*Psychological and Emotional planning for the family*Planning for Kids and Seniors*What to do when Plan "A" fails?This includes a curated list of links from various sources, too. I'll be sharing and updating links to sites I buy from and products I us Love&Light Kyeira Hemphill Simply here for a friend but if i must be here then to spread love and light is all💯 Good Morning Talk with Alex Alex This podcast is about many things.

Complete Surrender Samuel Smith Welcome to the Complete Surrender podcast, where amazing things happen. This podcast is made to record my journey of recovery and stepping out in faith to do the things that make me uncomfortable. Life is beautiful and worth being present in every moment. I want to live the Christian life and not just talk about it. Fear has no place in my life anymore and I acknowledge that I must be relentless in my pursuit of sobriety.
