Disaster Patrick on Family Disaster Preparedness, Emergency Backpacks & Multi-Generational Planning

Описание: What does real disaster preparedness look like for families, caregivers, and aging parents?

In this episode of The Matt Feret Show, Matt Feret sits down with Disaster Patrick to talk about practical, multi-generational emergency planning - not fear-based prepping or survivalist hype.

You’ll learn how preparedness goes beyond food and flashlights to include psychological readiness, family roles, and accountability, especially when caring for children and aging parents.

Patrick breaks down:

Why preparedness is a family responsibility, not an individual one
How to start with an empty disaster backpack
The Five Pocket Method for organizing emergency supplies
How to involve and empower kids instead of frightening them
What caregivers need to consider for seniors and parents living independently
Why mindset and execution matter more than perfect plans

This conversation is designed for adults navigating midlife, caregiving, retirement, and family leadership, and it offers realistic steps you can take starting today.
