Episode 226: Ryan Steva on Home Maintenance Oct 18, 2019

Show notes

Lots of women write to me about this show - glad that I share my successes and failures ---often trying to do things that are traditionally handled by men. Today we will talk through home maintenance and the five categories you should check annually to save yourself a world of hurt in the long run. Ryan Steva joins us to talk through five categories to review on your homestead.

Ryan Steva has a varied background from cable to construction to home inspections and, like many of us, has landed as a business owner wondering why he studied what he did in school. His home inspection company is called Inspections by Clarity.

Episode 220: Lifestyle Freedom and Liberty with Jack Spirko Oct 04, 2019

Show notes

Today we speak with one of my favorite people, a mentor and friend, Jack Spirko from The Survival Podcast about lifestyle freedom and liberty. I first found Jack years ago while canning tomatoes. I wanted something to listen to while doing this messy job that would not require me to restart the next podcast. I searched for a podcast on wild edible plants and found Jack and I was hooked. Since that time, I have watched in amazement as he manages to mentor hundreds of thousands of people as they develop lifestyle freedom, survival skills, cooking techniques and more - but we will dive more into that later in the show.

The Survival Podcast

Live tracking for Kurt

DarkHorse450 Fundraiser

Main content of the show

Jack Spirko is founder and podcaster at The Survival Podcast, a daily show about self sufficiency and self reliance in the modern world. He "conceived and created this podcast because over the years I have come to realize how fragile the human condition and the United States economy really is."

But the podcast is much more than a "prepper show." Jack focuses on helping people develop stability, prosperity and lifestyle freedom into their lives. Before launching the podcast he had successful careers in sales and marketing, and business development. When Jack drops a piece of business advice, it is usually spot on.

He lives in Texas on a small homestead with his Wife, Dorothy.

Make it a great week!
