Emergency Preparedness Made Simple for Families

I’m not a doomsday prepper, and I have no desire to live off the grid or build a bunker. Heck, I have a hard enough time getting through the day as it is (thank you, Costco and Dr Pepper Zero!) I am more about practical, realistic preparedness for everyday busy families like mine.

My goal is to give you more success with your emergency preparedness at a fraction of the cost (both time and money)! It really doesn’t have to consume every waking moment and every spare dollar. The important thing is, that you are moving forward and making your home and family a little safer.

I love breaking down big, intimidating topics (like 72-hour kits or food storage) into small, do-able steps. I take the overwhelm, the organizing, the researching, the list-making, and even most of the thinking, out of your emergency preparedness. Just fill in the blanks or check off the tasks as you accomplish them. Easy peasy, right?

It’s time. Being prepared will give you peace of mind that you literally cannot get any other way. Let’s do this! 👊

Testimonials

"I had been wanting to get my emergency preparedness stuff together for a long time. I knew I needed to get my family prepared but I just didn't know where to start. It was overwhelming so I just kept putting it off. But I always had this nagging in the back of my mind that something could happen and my family would be in trouble. Plan for Awesome helped me find a place to start and guided me through the whole process. Everything was broken down into manageable steps and every step took me closer to feeling more prepared. It was so much easier than I thought it would be and so achievable. The steps were simple to follow, realistic, and I love feeling like my family is prepared and safe. I no longer have that nagging feeling of 'what if' in the back of my mind. And the tips are amazing--takes the guesswork right out of emergency preparedness. No regrets!!!"
