"No more living in fear & anxiety from current events and we have taken back control by being more independent through self-sufficiency and the power of community."
DAVID
The past few years have proven to me how much more independent and self-sufficient we NEED to be in order to survive and thrive. I am so happy to have co-developed this wonderful thriving online community with my wife, Jessica, to bring together like-minded people to learn, share and prosper. Like us, you are probably starting at the beginning of your own self-sufficient journey but, as a member of "Self-Sufficient YOU!", you will benefit from the knowledge and experience of others who've "been there, done that" while making long-lasting and meaningful personal connections.
JESSICA
Over the past couple years I have realized how we have become so dependent on the "system" and how important it is to be more self sufficient. I am starting slowly but I am learning new things everyday and I find it extremely rewarding. One day I would love to live more in the country to have land and grow much more food but in the meantime I am learning as much as I can. During the day I guide women on their journey to embracing their natural beauty in order to age gracefully from the inside out My happy place is being in nature on my paddle board, biking, hiking or watching the sunset.
HOW DID WE GET HERE?
Since March 2020, we (the Hosts) have seen and experienced first-hand the negative impact of being too dependent on governments and corporations on our daily lives. We've had our lives and livelihood drastically changed and our eyes are wide open inspiring (often jolting) us to make the transition to a more independent and self-sufficient lifestyle. Though we are 'suburbanites', there were several opportunities for change which we made to be more physically and mentally healthy both personally and within our home; less dependent on grocery stores by learning food preservation and outdoor and indoor gardening, making some of our own household products such as soaps, detergents and candles; even stocking food and supplies; and more. It's been quite the journey and learning experience, and continues to be.
BECAUSE WE WANT TO...
-
Stop living in fear and anxiety and take more control over our lives by being more aware and knowledgable about from where our food comes, how it's grown and what's inside (e.g. lettuce doesn’t come from a plastic bag from the grocery).
-
Reduce our dependency on the "system" by remove ourselves from the mindset of mass consumerism knowing we can take care of ourselves no matter what "they" toss at us.
-
Stop relying on others by learning and building our skills and confidence by trying new things (e.g. an outdoor AND indoor veggie gardens; our first sourdough starter; food dehydrating and canning; stocking up on food and water supplies; protection from harmful EMF; making our own soaps, detergents and candles; adding indoor plants which clean the air; and even sewing!). By deciding to learn and do these things helped to reduce our anxiety and fear during times of unpredictability and massive change.
-
Connect with like-minded people who share the same outlook and goals of increased independence, self-sufficiency and community.
