Ready Your Future - A Prepper Podcast

Where do you go, when you have to go, but can't go - maybe a 5 gallon toilet!  A 5 gallon toilet is a great option if you are in an emergency, off-grid, or camping.  This video deals with the story of a family who was prepared for everything and then, someone needed to use a toilet! ;-)  It also references what people will do in the absence of places to use a toilet!

Where Do You Go When you HAVE to GO?

In our modern world, losing power is an inconvenience—but losing power when it's freezing outside could mean death if you don't know what you're doing. In this episode, we dive deep into practical strategies for staying warm when the grid goes down and your thermostat becomes useless.

Whether you're facing a winter storm, economic hardship, or an unexpected outage, having a plan to stay warm in the cold isn't optional—it's survival. Todd walks through proven prepper strategies for heating alternatives to creative low-tech solutions that could save your life.

This episode covers what to do if you have no power and no backup heat source, including tips that can keep your family comfortable for days. Don't wait until you're shivering in the dark to figure this out—this is essential knowledge for anyone serious about preparedness.

How to Stay Warm When You Have No Power!

When disaster strikes, most people only think about the immediate impact—but what happens next? In this episode of Ready Your Future, we dive deep into strategic prepping by exploring the often-overlooked world of 2nd level effects and 3rd level effects that can turn a manageable situation into a full-blown crisis. Understanding these ripple effects is what separates prepared individuals from those caught off guard when the dominoes start falling.

Being a strategic prepper means thinking beyond the obvious. A city-wide flood doesn't just damage your home—it disrupts supply chains, closes businesses, contaminates water, and creates health hazards that compound over days and weeks. This episode walks you through real-world examples, including lessons learned from Hurricane Harvey, to show exactly how emergencies scale and why your preparedness plan needs to account for these cascading consequences.

Whether you're just starting your preparedness journey or you're a seasoned prepper looking to level up your planning, this episode provides a framework for 2nd level prepping that will transform how you approach emergency readiness. You'll learn practical methods for mapping out chain reactions, auditing your current preps against deeper scenarios, and developing the "preparedness spidey sense" that helps you see around corners before trouble arrives. Strategic prepping isn't about fear—it's about thinking through problems before they happen so you can live proactively rather than reactively

We usually deal with the 1st level effects of an emergency, the most immediate impact.  But to be a strategic prepper, you need to consider how to prep for 2nd and 3rd level effects.

Strategic Prepper - Thinking About 2nd and 3rd Level Effects

What happens to your smartphone, your Gmail account, and your online banking when you're suddenly gone—or when you can't speak for yourself? Accessing accounts after death is one of those critical preparedness topics that most people never think about until it's too late.

In this episode, we dive deep into the real-world challenges of accessing online accounts when a loved one passes away, gets injured, or is incapacitated during an emergency. I'll share personal stories that drove this lesson home—including helping a grieving family recover precious videos of their child—and explain why your family could be locked out of everything they need during the worst moments of their lives.

You'll learn practical, low-tech and high-tech solutions for ensuring your loved ones can access your phone, your email, and your critical accounts without the added stress of being permanently locked out. From the sealed envelope method to password managers with emergency access features, from Apple's Legacy Contact to Google's Inactive Account Manager—we cover the strategies that actually work for accessing accounts and other essential digital assets. Whether you're worried about accessing accounts for yourself or preparing to help your family access yours, this episode gives you the step-by-step guidance to get this handled with just a little bit of time and effort.
