My Thoughts On The Self Reliance Festival | episode 255 Join me today as I talk about my thoughts on the self reliance festival. My family and I just returned from this year's self-reliance festival in Camden Tennessee at the SOE compound. We loved it. It was our first time going but definitely not our last. There were so many great speakers and demos going on there. There's no way you could have left there without a lot more knowledge and being hyped to go out there and do things. I was very excited to see some old faces and meet some new ones. I have met Jack Spirko and John Willis before but it has been more than 10 years. I was still drinking when I went to Jack's place so that's at least more than 11 years ago. Camping was fun as always. This was my daughter's second time camping and she loved it. There were so many kids for her to play with while we were there she had an absolute blast. The real hero of the festival was Toolman Tim's wife who put on the Self Reliance Kids program. She did an amazing job.
Join me for a talk about running a small business, a homestead, and community building as well as our Monday segments about pantry management, operation independence and more.

Murphy likes to visit right after Self Reliance Festival and other busy times. Murphy came over last week. Or did he? The funny thing about Murphy is we blame “Murphy” for things going wrong but whose fault is it really. Roaster It is all your fault Do Hard Things because if you don't do them now you will have to do harder things later and this goes for personal health (miking the right small choices every day) and for your business. As the owner, YOU see things that need addressing and you have to make a big choice: Do it yourself or set it up for someone else to do it. The answer is not that simple. That was THE WORK that had to be done so I did it. Because failure is not an option. So back to my roasters and Murphy. It wasnt Murphy's fault. It was mine. But right after they told me they wanted some extra handling. In a week where I felt tired. In a week with extra emails to answer, supplies to stash, communications to write, and steps to take to set up a great 2025. What saves the day: My3Things Doing the Work means identifying which work is most important to do. Example: The location of the ditch for electrical service How to use My3Things, steps to take – Business owner: everything is your fault even when it isn't your fault. Doing the work that was most important first Doing the work to keep healthy Doing the work earlier and later than everyone else Because sometimes doing the work is what needs to be done. Make it a great week! Song: The Flood GUYS! Don't forget about the cookbook, Cook With What You Have by Nicole Sauce and Mama Sauce.

Today, we have a replay of the speech I gave at the Exit and Build Land Summit. Featured Event: Joel Salatin Webinar TOMORROW Sponsor 1: AgoristTaxAdvice.com/Webinar Sponsor 2: EMPShield.com COUPON CODE LFTN Tales from the Prepper Pantry Not much coming off the garden this year yet so we are not canning Preparing easily reheatable meals for the coming weeks of commuting to California Weekly Shopping Report This week's trip started with Hobby Lobby. The store looked normal overall, with the usual assortment of craft items and dust collectors, but there were empty hooks here and there; finding something specific you want may not be a sure thing. Next stop was Home Depot. They still have a lot of cordless tools from the recent Fathers' Day deals, but selections are dropping. A 2x4x8 is unchanged from last week, at $3.48. They also have a LOT of solar yard lights, much better than the cheapies you find in dollar stores or even in China-mart. These are potentially good power failure lights or inside guide-lights; put them out to charge during the day, and bring them in at night. Regular batteries also remain in very good supply. Aldi was last. Produce quality remains a little erratic, but quantities are still good. We found everything we wanted, although there was little pork, and some prices have edged higher once more. Staple prices were: bread (20 oz. white): 1.35 (+); eggs: $1.78 (+); whole milk: $2.83; heavy cream: $5.39 (+); OJ: $3.29; butter: $3.59; bacon: $3.99; potatoes: $4.49; sugar: $2.99; flour: $2.35; and 80% lean ground beef: $3.79. A gallon of untainted regular gasoline remains at $3.599. Frugality Tip from Margo We did a week long road trip around Self Reliance Festival. Two nights with family, one night with friends and 4 nights in a fantastic little cabin in the woods. I packed half our cooler with frozen meat when we left the house. I grilled and cooked at the cabin. We did not NEED to spend any money on eating out the whole week. (We did choose to support the food vendors at SRF because they were there). So if you are on the fence about the expenses involved in traveling, you can save a lot money buy bringing your own food. The couple of months before we left I grabbed a bag of nuts here, some other snacks there and had a bag of food ready to go when we left the house. With Airbnb we paid for the cabin in installments and it was paid for before we got there. With a little creative planning you can have a week long vacation with little expenses spread out over time. Also stashed cash for months and came home with enough cash to cover the gas and misc bills that we incurred on the trip. So take the trip to find your tribe!! ~Margo Operation Independence Wholesale adjustments on the homestead Main topic of the Show: Nicole's Speech at the Exit and Build Land Summit Make it a great week!

The Straight Stitch: A Podcast About Sewing and Other Fiber Arts.
Today's podcast guest is John Willis of Special Operations Equipment in Camden, TN. Some of you may remember that I went to Tennessee twice in 2023: in April, to attend Nicole Sauce's Living Free in Tennessee Spring Workshop, and again in October, to attend and present at the Self-Reliance Festival. SRF is held at Special Operations Equipment. When not being used to host events, SOE is a sewing factory making high-end tactical gear. John and Amanda Willis are amazing people, and John graciously spent two hours last week visiting with me. The story of Special Operations Equipment is fascinating and one that I thought podcast listeners would enjoy hearing. And John is a great storyteller. Because our Zoom visit lasted longer than usual, I've posted two versions of this week's episode. The “short” version is about the length of a regular podcast episode and covers the sewing part of our conversation. The “extended play” version includes the entire discussion and gets into more of John's personal experiences and observations about life. There was so much wisdom in that part of the conversation that I felt it needed to be shared even if it veered off the topic of sewing a bit. Note that the EP version is marked “explicit” for some language, but we're all adults and I expect people to make the appropriate choice for themselves. The two episodes are identical save for the length, so if you choose the EP version, you'll also hear what is in the shorter version.

Today, We talk about how I make decisions on what to do, and what to leave - and why this is an important place to make purposeful decisions. It only takes 60 seconds to unload the dishwasher so why not just go for it if the dishes are in there. Even if you are running late those 60 seconds are not the reason.

We were stuck behind 8" of snow last week and did not get out, but we returned to our usual routine this Saturday, plus a second trip today. Dollar Tree was first on Saturday. The drink coolers were in very bad shape, with maybe one of them fairly full, but the others empty or nearly so. There were plenty of drinks on the shelves though, so I'll chalk it up to laziness. I stopped in here again on Sunday, and perhaps one of the empty ones had been refilled, but not the others; slackers. Home Depot was second on both days. A 2x4x8 remains at $3.25. We forgot it on Saturday, so I returned for a snow shovel today, but they just don't stock them. I did grab one of the few remaining bags of ice melt. I will order a snow shovel; rare or not, when needed, it's needed. Aldi was third on both days. They had no Masa in stock, which Sonia uses a lot (including for the birds, who love it). I asked someone today, and she said it's a core item and should be on the next truck. We found everything else we wanted. Staple prices were: eggs: $1.66; whole milk: $2.93; heavy cream: $4.69; OJ: $3.29; butter: $3.69; bacon: $4.25*; potatoes: $3.99; sugar: $3.09; flour: $2.29; 80% lean ground beef: $4.49. Although the price of bacon had not changed, there was none of the low-sodium variety, and they added a couple boxes of the cheap stuff, which was priced at $3.99. We just got regular bacon. Finally, I stopped for gas. A gallon of untainted regular at this particular Weigel's had dropped to $3.639. Frugality Tip from Jed Froggy During covid, all Ball products were hard for me to find, especially pickle crisp. Upon researching and realizing that it is just hydrated calcium chloride, I found some in stock at a home brewing supply. That supply line is obviously more robust, the container is larger, and the larger container was actually cheaper. Pickle Crisp is just pearled CaCl2 and this looks exactly the same. Despite Pickle Crisp becoming available, I have continued to shop at the brewer instead. While you're in there, price check other food grade chemicals, and ask if you can leave your name as someone that wants waste mash. Operation Independence LFTN 24 is sold out - Wait List Main topic of the Show: Should I do it? I was up at 5 today and sat with my coffee for an hour working on the My3Things sales copy before taking the dogs for a walk, doing a 30 minute set on housekeeping, and evaluating My3Things for the day. Along the way, I glanced over at my sink and saw last night's dishes drying - well really - DRY in the put away rack. I frowned at the dishwasher a few times. It was full of clean dishes. We often spend time putting off doing things, worrying about doing things, and talking about doing things while not doing them – only to discover that they take less time to do that it was worth worrying over. It only takes 60 seconds to unload the dishwasher so why not just go for it if the dishes are in there. Even if you are running late those 60 seconds are not the reason. And usually that extra minute will not hurt you any more than running late has already hurt you. On the flip side, if you do fifteen 1-minute tasks instead if heading out to your appointments, then doing those things is, in fact the problem. I often say, spending fifteen minutes in the morning deciding what is for dinner and making sure you have what you need to make that happen on time is the difference between a nourishing, home cooked meal and either eating at 9pm or getting takeout. Especially if you are lucky enough to practice homegrown cooking. So when and how, then do you decide to do something, versus put it off for another time The Underlying Problem: More to do than hours in the day. >Ask why Said yes to too many things The “messy” vs “cleany” problem (https://www.amazon.com/New-Messies-Manual-Procrastinators-Housekeeping/dp/0800757262) It is an overly busy time No motivation/illness/etc >But why Haven't decided what is most important Ah, now we are getting somewhere. To decide what is important, you must decide what is not important. Or said another way: If everything is important, nothing is. Goal at home: Home that empowers me AND nourishing, home-cooked food that we grow. Must haves Systems that make it so I can find things and meals happen on time Space for hyperfocus mode, my income earning endeavors, fun Animals are cared for We keep up with our food growing projects Proper supplies, few household backlogs like Laundry Mountain Not too much visual clutter Food on time, most of the time, from here Not important Museum clean “Going out” Common entertainment like movies, etc Pointless hobbies Everything the same each day Decore (Useful versus pretty) That being said, a non-healthy environment does not meet my needs. Question: When should I do it? Comes to mind. Back to the dishwasher - mine did not get emptied until lunch time - why? Because to have clean clothing, I needed to do laundry. To have healthy food tonight - a tough night for it - I had to have my plan and supplies ready to go. To make my 8am call, I needed to do the most important things first to get the outcomes I wanted and there were only 30 minutes for household stuff after I did my book session and walked the dogs. Laundry takes time to get done, but little interaction, so I knew I could start it, then be on that call. Dinner has to happen at 5pm (1 hour early), so I made sure we had everything in place for taco salad night, which includes harvesting swiss chard that gets built into my day. And Monday is pretty important here in the morning. Monday is when the discussion of who is doing what on which day happens, so we knocked that out. By the time that was all done, there was not a minute left before my first call, so I took it, then hyperfocused on work until it was time to cook lunch - and only then was there space for the 1 minute dishwasher unload. People often say women can multitask, but this is not how I work. I rapidly task - I fill the breaks with small things, like unloading the dishwasher, while I wait for other things that are not ready for the next input. Example: While waiting for onions to caramelize, I, in fact, finally unloaded the dishwasher. It takes 4 minutes to caramelize onions, so the dishwasher is the perfect thing to add into that tiny space. And it is these spaces that make the difference between keeping up, and ending up way behind. Filling the empty spaces in your day makes a huge difference. I know it sounds like a bit of torture, this filling of spaces but think about what it can give you: Less to do at the end of the day More forward momentum on important projects A healthier outlook because when you fill tiny spaces, you make big ones for rest, rejuvenation Now I know you expected me to dive into why you should ALWAYS do it as part of today's show but that is not the point. Quite the opposite. I was thinking today how these little domestic “tweener” projects are foundational to the functioning of the Holler Homestead. And this goes beyond the homestead. In your “work mode” you also have important little maintenance things that must be done. We sit around waiting that ten minutes from calendar reminder to appointment, afraid we will miss it, when we could be sending a single email to someone, or paying bills, or sweeping the roasting shack. But in my house, I manage to fit the 60 seconds it takes to unload the dishwasher during the 4 minutes it takes to caramelize onions Why? Because I can tell at a glance that the onions need stirring so I know I will be successful at getting both done. But that call? Ah the call is a different things altogether. If I wander off to do the 5 minute sweeping of the shack while waiting for the specific call time, I may not make that call. And there is a simple fix: A second notification. Setting the calendar for the 10 minute warning AND a your need to start now alarm makes that space usable again. It is a simple fix. It works. And it gives you back ten lost minutes to add to your afternoon focus session - a powerful gift. So in answer to should I do it? I don't know. It depends on you choosing actual, big picture priorities like I talk about in my book, My3Things. It depends on what you have set up to make yourself get the most important things TO YOU or FOR YOUR PROJECT done. Asking the question is the first step - building purpose into your answer is the answer. Here's to a sink full of clean, drying dishes and a dinner that cooked itself while I ate lunch my friends. Make it a great week! GUYS! Don't forget about the cookbook, Cook With What You Have by Nicole Sauce and Mama Sauce.

Setting goals - before you can accomplish something, you must imagine it If you don't know where you're going, any train will get you there. You cannot accomplish anything meaningful in life without first deciding to. Goal categories: Career, Relationships Family & Friends), Health (Physical and Mental), Spiritual, Security (Sustainable Financial & Physical) Develop a long-term plan based on one clear, long term goal in each category. THIS REQUIRES AN AMAZING AMOUNT OF MENTAL IMAGINATION WORK. Short term and mid term goals should all clearly connect to accomplishing your long-term goal. Goals should be SMART: Specific & Simple, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic, Timely My Emotion Thought Action Loop - Emotion leads to Thoughts leads to Actions leads to Emotions - Websites: fortressk9.com ; fortressk9.com/puppies ; k9academy.us - NOSTR pub key npub1j8neuc5udhsp3z336zgzlgwslxwf3gulh4fyxk2w22hxsuvv2emq4xyua7 - Get the Fold Card and start earning Bitcoin for purchases you're already making at use.foldapp.com/r/ME4MCF9U - Join us April 6-7, 2024 at Self Reliance Festival.

The Straight Stitch: A Podcast About Sewing and Other Fiber Arts.
My guest today is Kerry Brown, founder and owner of Strong Roots Resources in Tennessee. I first met Kerry at the Living Free in Tennessee Spring Workshop last April. While we were relaxing and visiting before dinner one evening, Kerry shared with me the story of Nan, his grandmother, teaching him to sew as a young boy. We reconnected at the Self-Reliance Festival in Camden, Tennessee in October and I asked Kerry if he would like to share his memories of Nan on the podcast. Enjoy!
Define stupid for the purpose of this discussion. I love to listen to these talks for two reasons: 1. I'm truly interested in the topic. 2. I love to learn how other people think. If you have any interest in increasing the depth of your thought, about anything in your life, then I ask that you bear with me. It will be a fun ride. Jordan Peterson's explanation to “Do You Believe in God?” Why do people seek simple answers to complex questions? If you truly want to know something, you have to be true to the pursuit of truth. You have to be willing to realize and admit if you are completely wrong. Sometimes you have to admit that you don't know and that can be very scary to people. We need to stop being lazy and complacent. Being stupid is not good. Why are people in the dog world so stupid? Why are these two topics even remotely connected together? Learning to think is learning to think no matter the topic. Too many people run off into assumption land with things they know nothing about. Protection Training and the crazy things young men have been reaching out to me about. Crazy ideas about how to train a dog to fight. 1. How does a dog learn to fight in nature? How should we be training dogs to fight? WTF!! Are some of these young idiots learning that make them think they know anything!! Let's step back and think about how we would teach a 12yo to fight. What about teaching an 18yo how to be a soldier? What about an experienced soldier? What about a Special Operations soldier? If you don't know what the fuck you are talking about, stop talking and start experimenting. If you're under 30 and/or you have been training dogs for less than 10 years, you're a fucking idiot. That's ok, keep learning, but NEVER think you have it figured out. - Websites: fortressk9.com ; fortressk9.com/puppies ; k9academy.us - NOSTR pub key npub1j8neuc5udhsp3z336zgzlgwslxwf3gulh4fyxk2w22hxsuvv2emq4xyua7 - Get the Fold Card and start earning Bitcoin for purchases you're already making at use.foldapp.com/r/ME4MCF9U - Join us April 6-7, 2024 at Self Reliance Festival.

Even if you're not in a northern climate, the preparations we will talk about can help you be prepared to take care of your dog. Conditions you can find yourself in during winter Storms: - Snow that makes travel inconvenient or impossible - Snow that limits your ability to exit your home - Ice and Sleet that make moving outside dangerous and can cause injury to you or your dog Options are Bugging in or Bugging Out Things you can do to prepare: Emergency Kit for Your Dog Compile a dog-specific emergency kit including food, water, medications, and important documents. Include warm blankets, a first-aid kit, and a leash/harness for control during walks. Shelter and Safety Ensure your dog's shelter is well-insulated and protected from drafts. Create a designated indoor space where your dog can stay warm and safe during the storm. Cold Weather Gear Invest in cold-weather gear such as a doggy coat or sweater, booties to protect paws from ice and salt, and a dog-friendly hat to keep their ears warm. Evacuation Plan Plan ahead for potential evacuations, identifying pet-friendly shelters or accommodations. Ensure your dog has proper identification, including a collar with contact information and a microchip. Behavior and Exercise Keep your dog mentally and physically stimulated during indoor confinement with interactive toys and puzzles. Maintain a consistent exercise routine to help them expend energy even when it's cold outside. - https://www.thesurvivalpodcast.com/bu.https://www.thesurvivalpodcast.com/bug-out-planning-orig-148 - Websites: fortressk9.com ; fortressk9.com/puppies ; k9academy.us - NOSTR pub key npub1j8neuc5udhsp3z336zgzlgwslxwf3gulh4fyxk2w22hxsuvv2emq4xyua7 - Get the Fold Card and start earning Bitcoin for purchases you're already making at use.foldapp.com/r/ME4MCF9U - Join us April 6-7, 2024 at Self Reliance Festival.

Building the Life You Want (Expanding on ideas from Jordan Peterson) - Finding Order in Chaos - You can't set a course on a map if you don't know where you are - If you don't know where you're going, any map will get you there - Once you know where you are and where you're going, stay up straight with your shoulders back and start walking - Balancing Freedom and Responsibility - Focus on your Circle of Control, Influence and Concern, IN THAT ORDER - Stop worrying about what other people say or think. Never take advice from someone who is not further down the path than you - Stop looking at other people and being jealous or looking down on them. Focus on getting your own house in order. - Embracing Challenges - One of the biggest challenges to Building the Life you want is the people in your life - Set firm boundaries with people in your life and enforce them. - Respect the boundaries others in your life have set and honor them. - Improvement Through Discipline - You only develop discipline through discomfort.

Disclaimer - This is not in any way to indicate that there isn't a time or place for fight for yourself or others. But there are many situations where de-escalation is the bast approach. You must always ask yourself, do I have time and opportunity? Understanding De-Escalation - De-escalation is a strategic approach to defuse conflicts and high-tension situations. - The importance of staying calm and composed when facing high-threat scenarios is critical. - Emphasize that de-escalation doesn't imply weakness; it's a strategic approach to protect oneself and others. Advantages of De-Escalation - You win every fight you don't have. - If you must fight you want it to be as violent, on your part, as possible and over as quickly as possible. Every second a fight continues is time for it to go bad for you. - Preserves legal and ethical standing in case of legal repercussions. There is always the fight after the fight. Techniques for Effective De-Escalation - Technique 1: Listening Before Acting - If the person who is threatening you is voicing a problem with you, then you may want to listen to that and ask yourself if you may have done something wrong. Tell the story of the Walmart parking lot. - Do not allow the threat to close distance or place you in additional risk while listening to them. - Technique 2: Verbal Calming - Lower and relax your voice as much as possible. They no longer have to compete by elevating their vocals which also elevates emotions. It calms them down, and can give you a tactical advantage if you remain alert, should you need it. - Technique 3: Offering Solutions - Ask questions: What can I do to make the situation better? What did I do to upset you? How can I help you? Questions do multiple things in our brain, they take us out of fight or flight because they require us to think. They also communicate that there may be another alternative to physical force. - Using "we" language can create a sense of collaboration. - Websites: fortressk9.com ; fortressk9.com/puppies ; k9academy.us - NOSTR pub key npub1j8neuc5udhsp3z336zgzlgwslxwf3gulh4fyxk2w22hxsuvv2emq4xyua7 - Get the Fold Card and start earning Bitcoin for purchases you're already making at use.foldapp.com/r/ME4MCF9U - Listen to podcasts and earn Bitcoin for free at fountain.fm - Join us at Self Reliance Festival, Oct 14-15, 2023 in Camden, TN - https://selfreliancefestival.com - Join us at Prepper Camp, Sept 23-25, 2023 in Saluda, North Carolina - https://www.preppercamp.com - Email: fortressk9@gmail.com or joel@fortressk9.com - Text me at 813-836-9244.

From segments recorded during multiple drives, CJ pieced together his first Silver Bullet episode in over 6 months (and his longest Silver Bullet episode ever), in which he goes over in detail 13 of his biggest complaints about academia, based on his observations & experience from having been a student in it for 6 years & a teacher in it for 16 years. Join CJ as he discusses the following problems with modern conventional academia: No real market feedback mechanism to indicate whether a "good education" is being provided. Overspecialization. Rigid credentialism. Too many courses online (especially at the intro/gen-ed level.) Excessive disability accommodations. Private-sector profiteering (off a captive audience & cartelized, non-competitive system.) Administrative bloat. A focus on arbitrary metrics that can be juked/gamed. Degree inflation. The accreditation agencies functioning as a cartel enforcer to artificially restrict entry & reduce competition. Ideology baked into most (if not all) disciplines, in many cases for over a century. The adversarial relationship often automatically created between student & teacher. State & corporate influence & control.
