Ep 130. FREE and Easy Prepper Tasks to Do in Summer
☀️ What if prepping didn’t feel overwhelming—or expensive?
In this episode, we’re diving into six completely free ways to boost your preparedness this summer. While fall and winter tend to feel like the “typical” prepping seasons, summer offers its own unique energy: longer days, lighter routines, and a little more breathing room.
I’m sharing practical things you can do right now—without needing to buy a single thing—that will give you more peace of mind at home.
These ideas are perfect for beginners or anyone who wants to be more prepared without falling down a rabbit hole of fear or conspiracy theories. (Not our vibe.)
