About this listen

Hey there, let’s get real for a second: survival isn’t just about gear. Sure, having the right tools is great, but if you don’t have the skills to back it up, all that fancy equipment won’t mean much. That’s where this book comes in. We’re not here to talk about the obvious stuff. You already know how to stockpile food or pitch a tent. This is about the underrated survival skills, the ones that don’t get nearly enough love but can save your bacon when things go sideways.

Here’s the thing—most people don’t think about how to make bug repellent from plants or what to do when you don’t have a lighter, cookware, or even a fishing rod. But disasters are messy, unpredictable, and full of curveballs, so the more versatile and creative you are, the better your chances of coming out on top.

This book is all about those less-than-obvious skills that can make a huge difference in a pinch. We’re going to cover everything from predicting the weather without an app to finding ways to keep warm without starting a fire. And yes, we’ll even talk about how to use trash—yes, trash—as a resource. If you’re the kind of person who’s ever thought, “How do I make the most out of nothing?” then you’re in the right place.

Why focus on these overlooked skills? Because disasters don’t follow a rulebook. You might find yourself in a situation where your stove, gear, or tools are useless—or maybe they’re gone entirely. Knowing how to improvise, adapt, and problem-solve on the fly is what separates the prepared from the panicked.

This isn’t about being an expert bushcrafter or a hardcore prepper. It’s about filling in the gaps in your survival game. These skills aren’t just for wilderness situations either—they’re just as useful in urban settings or everyday emergencies. The goal is simple: give you a toolbox of knowledge that you can pull from no matter where you are or what you’re facing.

So, buckle up. We’re diving deep into skills that might seem small, but pack a punch when it matters most. By the end of this, you’ll have a whole new perspective on what it means to be truly prepared. Let’s get started.
