Replay Episode 278: Live the Life You Want


Today we have a replay of a recap of what the LFTN community and podcast are all about. Enjoy!

Download

Link to old post

There are so many new listeners that I thought it would be worthwhile to talk about our tagline: Helping you build the life you choose on your terms. Lots of people think this podcast is about homesteading, about cooking good food,  about liberty and freedom – and it is. We do tons on starting and growing your own business, side hustles and more. But when you dig right into things a little deeper, you will discover the LFTN is about choosing the life you want to live, then setting yourself up to go there. The life I choose to live is in the country, but this approach works in the city and all over the world. The hardest part of doing it is accepting that you CAN do it.

Replay Episode 279: Build Your Pantry Right Away


This episode was recorded in March 2020 right before lockdowns were enacted. This was the year of the great TP shortage and folks who had never thought about having more than a few days’ worth of food on hand were thrust into keeping several weeks on hand. As we turn the corner into supply chain problems, this topic has again arisen. Please enjoy this replay episode on how to build a deep pantry right away rather than over time – which is the better way.

    • Crop failures to the south
    • Other countries building up stores
    • Sure, the war in ukraine

  • The right questions
    • Local production
    • What do you truly need to thrive 
    • How can you own your health (Nutrition and excersize)
    • What bad habits need to get thrown out and how can you attack them one day at a time
    • How are you spending your time? Watching the world burn or DOING things?
    • How can you change your provider now or provide it yourself?
    • Winter is coming! But is is spring right now
