September is Personal Preparedness month and in this episode, Michelle interviews Ryan Nicholls who works in emergency management. Ryan encourages us not to get overwhelmed in planning for emergencies, but make it a lifestyle of consistently planning for possible future events, especially those specific to the area in which you live. He encourages us to think about possible crisis situations and plan as a family what you would do in those situations. Where would you meet if there is a fire or communication issue? What would you need if there was a power outage? What documents would you need saved in case of a house fire, tornado, or hurricane? We hope these tips encourage you to get started planning for emergencies! We'll share what our families are doing to prepare on Instagram, so be sure to check us out there!
