Our commitment for the last decade has been helping families like yours to become more resourceful… and it is also helpful to have some resources to start with. In times of challenge, having things ready 5 minutes before something happens is a huge advantage over waiting until 5 minutes after it happens.
Ask anyone who’s been through Hurricanes Katrina or Sandy, recent floods, fires, earthquakes, social unrest, etc…. It takes our most precious resources to deal with these situations –
Our Time and Energy!
Since an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, a few hours of prevention is worth months of cure, months you may not have when the time comes. What is saving your loved ones worth? How about $3.00 a week per person? A family of 4 is around $600 a year to start with getting a basic kit together at a minimum. The knowledge and experience from practicing with it however, is priceless. Our trainings and kits are designed by families just like yours to include what is needed most and leave out what is not so you can actually carry what you need everywhere quickly and easily, even by children and elders.
Our goal is to be able to:
Triage what to do first and remain calm
Create a safe space
Minimize trauma
Control bleeding
Treat burns, fractures and minor injuries
Purify and heat drinking water and maintain basic nutrition
Create basic shelter and protection
Be able to communicate with your loved ones
Stay motivated to face whatever is needed
We include a simple survival guide that shows you how to do the most important things as quickly and easily as possible. Our goal is to help your family thrive no matter what happens. We can even sit down with you and do a quick assessment on how prepared you are and then let you find a solution customized for your situation.
Our specialties are:medicine, strategy, security and leadership. Our team has many years of testing and optimizing our methods in over 30 countries around the world. 2 kids on our team started teaching emergency medicine to their schoolmates when they were 7 and 5. It’s never too early to prepare children for life’s challenges. Most importantly, we practice at least 20 hours a week. There is no substitute for “GO! time”. A grand master in martial arts (who was considered one of the best in the world at that time) was asked “What is the secret to being the best?” He just smiled and said ” the secret to being the best is training 8 hours a day – every day of your life!”
Most of the information you need to be successful is on the Internet now, unfortunately there’s not enough time to learn about all of it. We have spent the thousands of hours learning books, journals, manuals, spreadsheets, audios, videos, workshops and trainings to find the best pieces to share with you efficiently. In today’s world, it is not always possible to train 8 hours every single day at something (even if it is important). We would say the secret is training as many hours a day as possible… as often as you can.
We look forward to working with you and helping your family thrive!

To buy all the items separately will typically cost you $700 to $900 retail if you can even find them all in stock… and typically over 30 hours of your time (depending on what you value an hour of your time worth). If you earn $30 an hour, that is $900 alone. If you earn $50 an hour, it’s more like $1500!
You can also buy cheap ready-made kits, but they are rarely customized to your needs and still need to be practiced with to get the value.
Then comes the books and other media ($100 to $500), and finally trainings ($200 to $2,000) in order to use them effectively.
When you really look at it, 20% of actually being prepared is a kit, 80% is knowing how to use it.

Our team has many years of combined experience in Emergency Services, Search & Rescue, team building and training programs.
Rob – Coaching and Training, Kits, Special Teams, Medicine, Army, Martial Arts, Operations He grew up in rural Wisconsin in a police and medical family and learned survival from an early age. They had to be self-sufficient much of the time and were faced with many challenges that tested their survival abilities. He has been teaching these skills for over 40 years. He spent 6 years in the U.S. Army in a variety of challenging situations and has trained over a thousand people in emergency medicine and wellness, survival, preparedness and how to thrive in the most challenging conditions spiritually, socially, economically, mentally, emotionally and physically.
Nic – Marines, Herbal Remedies, Preparedness and Training He was raised in an Oregon family spending time outdoors. In addition to what he learned with his family, the techniques experienced in Boy Scouts and later going to Marine Corps basic training provided a solid foundation for how to deal with challenging situations. He spent a number of years crafting personal Hidden In Plain Sight (HIPS) and EveryDay Carry (EDC) kits with an emphasis on light-weight, transportable gear, while not lacking any critical equipment. Abroad for almost a decade, he learned Spanish, another culture and new perspective about the importance of self-sufficiency. While raising his children in different environments and running an early education institution, he grew his skills for training children. He now spends time educating his own children on wild edibles and medicinal plants, while hiking and backpacking the Siskiyou and Cascade mountain ranges, testing new gear and techniques.

An example here of the dam at Oroville, CA shows what not being prepared looks like, it will now take over 100 times as much money, time and energy to fix afterwards than it would have to prevent it.
An example here recently in San Jose, CA also shows what not being prepared looks like, it will now take so much more money, time and energy to fix afterwards than it would have to prevent it.
