The Prepper's Survival Checklist

We all like to think the world's a safe place, and most of the time, it is. But every now and then, something unexpected happens-whether it's a natural disaster, an economic collapse, or something else that shakes things up. And when that happens, the last thing you want is to be scrambling to figure out what to do or where to turn. I'm Kurt Johnson, and if you're reading this, I bet you're looking to avoid that panic. Maybe you've realized it's time to be a little more prepared, to have a plan in place for your family-because when things get tough, the last thing you want is to be caught off guard. I get it. This whole "being prepared" thing can feel overwhelming. It's easy to put off because, let's face it, it's not the most exciting thing in the world. But I'm here to tell you it doesn't have to be complicated or stressful. In fact, it can be surprisingly simple if you take it step by step. Let me tell you a little bit about my own situation. I've got a wonderful wife, Trish, and two daughters-Stephanie and Alexandria. When I first started getting into prepping, I wasn't sure where to begin. But, as a husband and dad, I felt a responsibility to make sure my family would be okay no matter what happened. I didn't want to be the guy scrambling last minute when things go sideways. That's why I put together this checklist. It's everything I've learned over the years about what you need to survive a month-long disaster. It's practical, down-to-earth, and most importantly, it's designed for real families-people like you and me, trying to do right by the ones we love. From food and water to shelter and security, this book covers all the bases. You don't need to be a survival expert to make this work. I've broken it down in a way that's simple and doable, so even if you're just starting out, you'll know exactly where to focus your energy and resources. No stress, no over-complicating things-just the essentials to make sure you're ready for anything that might come your way. So, grab a cup of coffee, get comfortable, and let's dive into how we can make sure your family is safe and secure-because that's what this is all about. You've got this.
