TL;DR: Prepared, Not Paranoid is three books on preparation as ordinary competence instead of an identity: Real World Survival, The Ultimate Bug Out Bag Guide and Don’t Live in Fear. They cover what to have, what to carry, and the walls of fear that stop people from acting. I wrote them out of years running corporate disaster recovery and living through Northridge, Hurricane Milton, wildfires and COVID.
