Hello all you GXT fans out there, and thanks for joining us. Today we’re talking a bit about Risk assessment, determining YOUR why, and reminding us all to always be thinking preparedness…

I am one of your hosts, Matt Marshall, here to remind us that with preparedness comes comfort, with preparedness comes peace, something we could all use a bit more of…

Ed, in today's show, I think we’ll take a bit of a different turn.  I thought it might be interesting to share with our listeners some of our personal history…  and maybe explain a bit about why preparedness is so important to us as individuals.

What got me started in preparedness?

SO, asking myself the question, “what got me started in preparedness”, I really had to do some soul searching.  I mean first off, how can you go through 2020 and even into 2021, and not start thinking about being more prepared for difficult times?  Nothing like a pandemic to trigger that fight or flight response inside of a person, right?  But then I had to start looking back…  

Would you be prepared? Are you prepared?

Choosing to be more prepared every day is a skill. One that should be honed. Focusing on growing just a little everyday will allow us all to be prepared to respond well and recover faster.

I’d love to hear your thoughts and comments about prepping, so please reach out and share as you can.

Until next time… this is monk signing off… better be prepared
