To expand upon the two-part entry in my blog on UrbanLadyPrepper.com, "situational awareness" isn't just for stone-faced Hollywood actors, secret agents, or ninjas. It's for everyone, especially my SMSFs (Single Moms/Solo Females). This episode focuses on how we need to be more aware of what's happening around us and re-learn how to trust the intuition we've been conditioned to ignore. Doing this will help keep you safe - and may even save your life.

We SMSFs (Single Moms and single Females) must do our best to keep ourselves and any children or animals we may have safe from our biggest threat—people. This episode provides tips on keeping your home secure, even if you're renting or on a tight budget. Prepping starts at home, and you want to keep it a safe haven! Taken from two blogs on my Urban Lady Prepper site!

And don't feel guilty about your stash - you're stockpiling, not hoarding, and yes, there is a difference! Based on the blog entries The Physicality of Prepping…Tales from a Chunky Dunk, When It’s NOT the Zombie Apocalypse…It’s Just Life, & Is It Stockpiling or Hoarding? all found here.

Here are more tips on embracing the Prepper Mindset. It's not only about your physical preps; it's about shifting your perspective, which may require some mental and emotional rewiring. Straight talk, no BS, all love. Based on my blog entries More On The Mindset Tip…Straight Talk & Re-Thinking Priorities, which can be found here.

What's worse than listening to some dusty dude with a microphone talking trash about my single moms and single women? Settling for one of them. Never think having any man is better than being alone, especially when many really want a Maid Mommy. Don't date him, girl; you've got prepping to do! You need a man who will be an asset when navigating our uncertain future, not a liability!

Getting started in prepping is easier - and less expensive - than you think! I give a crash course in hopping on the preparedness train and how having the right mindset is as important as making space and having a plan.
