Why Did Past Students Join?
"I had an uneasy feeling about things that could go wrong but didn't know what to do."
~ Cathy (2024)
"Frankly? To deal with my anxiety about the future. To feel like I had greater control…"
~ Bryen (2024)
You’re not wrong to feel uneasy. The world really is changing fast.
The truth is, most people aren’t ready for what’s already here.
Every day brings new headlines:
Extreme weather disasters
Strained medical systems and rising health threats
Climbing food prices and fragile supply chains
Financial instability, cyber risks, global tensions and growing local crime and unrest
It’s easy to feel overwhelmed.
What feels better is having a practical path forward that works with your unique life and needs.
What made you hesitant to
sign up?
"Nothing - I had taken previous classes with the presenters and was confident it would be worthwhile."
~ Cathy (2024)
" Timing and I worried I’d be in a class full of gun-toting preppers... (That wasn't the case), There were a lot of folks just like me there"
~ Bryen (2024)
Preparedness is NOT about FEAR.
Real resilience starts with small, meaningful steps.
We’ll walk them together.
This course is for you if:
You’re concerned about where the world is heading and want grounded, practical steps to be ready
You want to protect your loved ones and community without a fear-based “doomsday” mindset
You feel overwhelmed and want simple, high-impact actions
You value a holistic approach grounded in nature, community, and best practices in emergency preparedness
You want a positive community that gets it and is here to cheer you on and answer your questions
This is the mission of the Road Map to Resilience Course!

I'm thrilled with the things I've put in place and how easy some of them were. There's still a "to do" list but it feels do-able now that I have a roadmap"
~ Cathy (2024)
"I’ve been collecting items, books... I've got a home, grab-&-go and small car kit (it all needs improving) I’ve connected with neighbours and family... I also understand this is a life-long path of learning."

🔷 The Core Framework:
The Survival Resilience Matrix
At the heart of this course is a practical, adaptable framework for building resilience in every area of life.
It’s not a one-size-fits-all plan. It’s a flexible path built around four essential pillars of resilience.
Most training focuses on just one area, like wilderness survival, homesteading, or emergency planning.
But, real resilience means being ready for whatever comes, with the adaptability to handle the known, the unknown, and everything in between.
Each pillar integrates:
Practical knowledge
Hands-on skills
Gear recommendations
Realistic action steps
What did you like most about the course?
"I most liked the mindset that replaces uneasiness/overwhelm by confidence and empowerment. Also, how practical and clear the actions are."
~ Cathy (2024)
"I liked the depth of info, the way it was delivered, the gentle guidance, the story telling, the opportunity to connect with other folks grappling with how to be better prepared."
~ Bryen (2024)

Check out what Chantale had to say...
They Say...
This is a powerful true account from a recent (2025) email Chris got from a past participant of his Survive the Storms course.
"I just wanted to send you a quick note to say: I'm STILL grateful for everything that class taught me! Actually.... more and more so I'd say (sadly maybe!).
I had a moment of freak-out yesterday with waves of anxiety and an internet rabbit hole as the news of some nearby out-of-control fires was shared in my area.
I switched gears and started taking a few action steps which we had learned about in the course.
I looked through my grab-and-go bag, i added a few things, i made an evac plan specific to fires, and i ordered a few extra preparedness items which i had wanted for a while...
And now i feel much better even though the situation hasn't changed.
Anyway, just wanted to send you some feedback to say thank you and your work has helped a lot of people I'm sure"
