Prepping isn’t just about looking after number one.
In this week’s episode, I urge folks to consider a powerful perspective shift and steer clear of the “every man for himself” mentality that often overshadows the homesteading and prepping communities.
Let’s explore the balance between self-reliance and community support. I truly believe that we should prepare and become self-reliant not just for ourselves, but so we can be in a position to help others. The true awesomeness of self-reliance is that it equips us to extend a helping hand.
Pour yourself a cup of coffee and get ready for my two cents on how taking care of ourselves is ultimately about caring for others.
