** A Donation Based 2-Hour Workshop **

This workshop is designed for everyday people who want practical skills and simple planning tools they can actually use at home, at work, and in their community.

Emergencies don’t look like the movies, and real preparedness isn’t about fear or expensive gear.

Taught by a retired U.S. Army Special Forces Warrant Officer (me) and another secret squirrel (Slo), this course focuses on awareness, planning, and resilience, not tactics or theory.

You’ll learn how professionals think through problems under uncertainty and how to apply those same principles to real-world civilian emergencies.
