This session is packed with essential tips and strategies to ensure you and your family are prepared for any unexpected emergencies. We dive deep into the importance of having a robust family emergency plan, especially when you might be separated from your loved ones during a crisis. From navigating power outages and securing water access to dealing with gas shortages, we cover the must-have supplies like flashlights, generators, and water reserves. We'll also underline the critical need for clear communication with designated emergency contacts and offer guidance on how to be ready for various weather-related emergencies specific to your region—be it hurricanes, tornadoes, or earthquakes.
We reflect on our past sessions, hoping they've provided valuable insights, and warmly invite you to share your feedback for ongoing improvement.

WEBVTT
00:00:01.201 --> 00:00:04.591
Peace and power to all of my good people out there.
00:00:04.591 --> 00:00:10.842
Welcome to another session with Shay On this session.
00:00:10.842 --> 00:00:21.490
This is the final series of sessions of the Survival get get yourself right session series.
00:00:21.490 --> 00:00:22.826
I don't you get me, though.
00:00:22.826 --> 00:00:34.631
In previous sessions, we talked about supplies to get and a mindset to have, but on this particular session here, it might be a short one.
00:00:34.631 --> 00:00:50.902
Um, we're going to discuss those certain scenarios that might happen that would make you have to change your mindset about certain things or get the supplies that we prepped on.
00:00:51.423 --> 00:01:16.332
These plans here, or scenarios here are, is my attempt to at least put a spotlight on certain situations, situations, situations that may happen in any given moment and you might think of them, you might not, but this session is not a disclaimer.
00:01:16.332 --> 00:01:19.784
I am not a survival expert, nor do I claim to be.
00:01:19.784 --> 00:01:23.661
I'm just a person who has information and I am choosing to share it.
00:01:23.661 --> 00:01:29.412
Please do your own research when it comes to anything I speak about on this session or any other session.
00:01:29.412 --> 00:01:52.707
Thank you All right, that causes our mindset to shift from natural, regular routine to something different, to a serious situation, to oh my God, that type thing.
00:01:52.707 --> 00:02:15.868
So, like I said before, I am only here to shed light on different scenarios, just in case you might've never thought that to be a thing to happen, and for you to create your own plans or your own options and choices for yourself and your family If these situations arise for you.
00:02:18.121 --> 00:02:21.570
Firstly, today is June 2nd.
00:02:21.570 --> 00:02:23.342
Shout out to the June people.
00:02:23.342 --> 00:02:39.074
Hey, today is June 2nd and we are in summer or about to be in summer, and of course, weather plays into different parts of any type of situation or emergency or what have you.
00:02:39.074 --> 00:02:48.514
Weather is a whole different animal depending on where you actually live and or how you choose to prepare for where you live.
00:02:48.514 --> 00:02:51.365
Let's take Florida for an example.
00:02:51.365 --> 00:03:03.274
If you live in Florida, shout out to you, you either have dealt with, or know of someone who's dealt with, a hurricane.
00:03:03.274 --> 00:03:09.588
That particular situation is something that they know is coming.
00:03:09.588 --> 00:03:15.866
If it's not now, they've had several, and if it's not here now, there's one coming.
00:03:15.866 --> 00:03:21.062
That's just the ebb and flow of Florida, weather-wise anyway.
00:03:21.062 --> 00:03:37.034
So I'm sure everyone there prepares accordingly to what they're comfortable with preparing for, but when it comes to weather situations like tornadoes and earthquakes and things like that, things that come out of the blue and you don't know how to prepare for those accordingly.
00:03:37.659 --> 00:03:47.132
These other little scenarios and situations that may arise might come from said emergency.
00:03:47.132 --> 00:03:52.425
Take, for instance, if a tornado happens and you lose your power.
00:03:52.425 --> 00:04:01.453
The tornado might not have happened in your town, but your power structure is connected to that system that just had a tornado.
00:04:01.453 --> 00:04:04.725
So what do you do when the power goes out?
00:04:04.725 --> 00:04:07.432
Do you have enough flashlights?
00:04:07.432 --> 00:04:08.442
Do you have a generator?
00:04:08.442 --> 00:04:09.343
Do you have candles?
00:04:09.343 --> 00:04:11.489
Do you have any of that stuff?
00:04:11.489 --> 00:04:22.704
If there's just a regular power outage that isn't caused by any particular thing, do you know where all of those supplies are?
00:04:24.767 --> 00:04:45.435
When it comes to situations now, if you're single, this doesn't apply to you, but if you're at work and your spouse is at work and your kids are at school, do you have a family plan ready for, if everyone is separated, how everyone is going to come back together?
00:04:45.435 --> 00:04:50.367
Of course, it's easy to say everybody, just get back home.
00:04:50.367 --> 00:04:57.826
But how the kids are at school and they ride the bus every day and the buses aren't running, how do your kids know how to get home?
00:04:57.826 --> 00:05:00.052
Do your kids know how to get home?
00:05:00.052 --> 00:05:20.182
If your spouse is at work and you're at work, who is designated to go get the kids if there's a scenario where both of you can't get your kids, who is designated to get the kids if they can get to the kids?
00:05:20.182 --> 00:05:29.540
Those types of situations and scenarios should be should be part of a conversation as a family group.
00:05:29.540 --> 00:05:41.612
And if someone is supposed to say if you and your spouse designate Aunt Mary to go get your kids, make sure Aunt Mary know that too.
00:05:41.612 --> 00:05:50.329
Several times in situations where people are being put as emergency contacts and those people have no idea that they're the emergency contact.
00:05:50.329 --> 00:06:03.918
So please, if you're going to put someone down for something, make sure they know it and make sure they know the plan of action if they are to be called Same thing with.
00:06:03.918 --> 00:06:04.841
Well, not same thing.
00:06:04.901 --> 00:06:06.625
But what if your water goes out?
00:06:06.625 --> 00:06:09.502
Do you have reserves?
00:06:09.502 --> 00:06:12.634
Do you know where to get reserves?
00:06:12.634 --> 00:06:17.266
Do you know how to get water?
00:06:17.266 --> 00:06:21.343
If you need to, might have to write that down to find that out too.
00:06:21.343 --> 00:06:26.886
Do you have supplies of water and do you have enough water?
00:06:27.074 --> 00:06:32.026
We talked about water in the other session on supplies, supplies, on how much every person should have every day.
00:06:32.026 --> 00:06:36.644
Do you know how to store it properly?
00:06:36.644 --> 00:06:47.509
And if you are confined for space and you don't have all of those avenues Shay, I only live in an apartment or I only live in a, in a studio.
00:06:47.509 --> 00:06:48.550
I don't have the space.
00:06:48.550 --> 00:06:58.767
You should still have enough supplies for you in that space, if you have, if there's no gas.
00:06:59.750 --> 00:07:18.827
Gas is a very different thing because there's many different avenues now that that things that don't use gas, lots of electric vehicles and battery powered things so gas might not be a big of a need, as it probably would have been 10, 20 years ago.
00:07:18.827 --> 00:07:26.267
But if you have a car that runs on gas, do you have spare gas just in case?
00:07:26.267 --> 00:07:31.838
Do you know that gas turns into water if it sits in a gas can way too long?
00:07:31.838 --> 00:07:40.338
Do you know that if you put watered down gas in a vehicle, it completely fucks up your engine?
00:07:40.338 --> 00:07:50.170
Do you have resources to find gas if you need it, or is it not that big of a deal if you don't have it?
00:07:50.170 --> 00:07:52.797
Just something to think about.
00:07:52.797 --> 00:08:15.259
There were instances in the 70s and 60s where they had to ration out gas because there was a gas shortage and you know people were accommodating back then.
00:08:15.259 --> 00:08:18.706
But now, in 2024, do you think the masses will be OK with someone saying you can't get that much gas?
00:08:18.706 --> 00:08:22.774
Today Most people feel like they're entitled to basic necessities of things and they're going to say how dare you tell me how much gas I can get today?
00:08:22.774 --> 00:08:24.516
I'm going to get what the fuck I want to get.
00:08:24.516 --> 00:08:33.477
So have different avenues of receiving or getting gas, or finding ways to get gas if you need it.
00:08:35.461 --> 00:08:41.874
The Internet If the Internet were to go out, I feel as though that would be the main.
00:08:41.874 --> 00:08:45.791
Well, one of the major catalysts is to complete chaos.
00:08:45.791 --> 00:08:59.352
We live in a society right now that everything is run by the Internet everything and if that Internet is not present, people lose their shit.
00:08:59.352 --> 00:09:09.110
A couple of months ago there was a AT&T outage that lasted half a day and people were calling that the end of times half a fucking day.
00:09:09.110 --> 00:09:24.851
Imagine if the whole west coast internet goes out, from the tippity top of Washington to the bottom of California, all the way to, let's say, texas, the middle of Texas.
00:09:24.851 --> 00:09:33.773
How much chaos do you think would ensue if the West Coast couldn't get in touch with the East Coast or vice versa?
00:09:33.773 --> 00:09:37.884
Having no Internet is a major thing.
00:09:37.884 --> 00:09:56.081
So we, as individuals who want to prepare for that accordingly, have to know if the internet goes down, there's going to be very limited amount of information that goes down, that goes out and a lot of secondhand, thirdhand, fourthhand knowledge is going to pass through.
00:09:56.081 --> 00:10:06.355
You have to have the discernment of what information you choose to believe and which information you just you know choose to put in the corner, as it were.
00:10:06.355 --> 00:10:11.346
But the internet is going to.
00:10:11.586 --> 00:10:18.272
If the internet does go down, that would lead to another scenario no money.
00:10:18.272 --> 00:10:27.881
Another scenario no money.
00:10:27.881 --> 00:10:31.912
Most banks rely on you know, the internet for their checks and balances system to know how much money is in individuals accounts at any given moment.
00:10:31.912 --> 00:10:38.613
If the internet goes down in conjunction with a power outage, how are you supposed to get money?
00:10:38.613 --> 00:10:43.639
Conjunction with a power outage how are you supposed to get money?
00:10:43.639 --> 00:10:49.269
Do you have a certain amount of money saved at home for any given emergency, if needed?
00:10:49.269 --> 00:10:51.860
Do you have that money in different denominations Some fives here, some ones here, some tens here?
00:10:51.860 --> 00:11:07.775
Wouldn't even bother with the fifties and the hundreds if you maybe want to keep onesie, twosie here and there, because if you're at the level that you need to start dipping into your emergency house, money, money, fifties and a hundreds ain't going to carry the weight that they used to, if at all.
00:11:12.562 --> 00:11:35.648
But if the Internet and the banks go down, there's going to be a run on certain things, is going to be a run on certain things and then, keeping in the mindset that if you're out in the world, these certain things are going to be going down, and if your whole goal is to make it back home to your family, do you stop and think do I need to go, try to partake in these activities to get these certain things, or should I go straight home to my family?
00:11:35.648 --> 00:11:44.145
These are things in your mind that you may or might not have to go through at a very short interval of time.
00:11:44.145 --> 00:11:47.331
That's a hard choice.
00:11:47.331 --> 00:12:07.990
If you're out in the world and you're just trying to get home and you realize that the infrastructure of what we know is no longer a thing, do you stop at the store and try to get what you can in order to get back home to your family, or do you introduce yourself to a whole different unsafe scenario or situation?
00:12:07.990 --> 00:12:10.134
Tough call.
00:12:10.134 --> 00:12:23.534
But that's why we have these conversations and have these plans in mind to say you know what is, if it's that important, do you have the survival things on you at any given moment?
00:12:23.534 --> 00:12:42.124
If you don't, you're going to go in and, as a did, as at a disadvantage Additionally, if there's an emergency of some sort and you have to go out in the world to get supplies and things of that nature.
00:12:42.124 --> 00:12:45.451
Again, I'm not trying to fear monger or anything like that.
00:12:45.451 --> 00:12:46.200
I want to have to.
00:12:46.461 --> 00:12:55.605
I feel like I need to preface a lot of these conversations because, especially if you listen to these sessions back to back to back, it'll sound well.
00:12:55.605 --> 00:13:00.169
I would hope it's not giving a tone of doom and gloom, because that's not what I'm trying to do here.
00:13:00.169 --> 00:13:16.047
All I'm trying to do is make you or hope to make everyone aware of the situations that may occur and how to better help you and your family make it through those situations or those scenarios.
00:13:16.047 --> 00:13:21.032
That's all anywho off soapbox.
00:13:21.032 --> 00:13:35.567
But if there's a situation and an emergency occurs and you have to go out into a world that you don't know what's out there, you gotta weigh the the pros and cons with that one too.
00:13:36.048 --> 00:13:59.322
But this particular session was a short one, but I hope I gave some insight on different scenarios and plans that could happen and give you a different thought process to come up with your own plans and have your own conversations with your families, because if you do have these scenarios present themselves, it would.
00:13:59.322 --> 00:14:00.903
It would behoove you.
00:14:00.903 --> 00:14:10.192
I would hope that to want to at least have some type of guidance in your brain like, oh, I've thought about this way before, this is what we should do, boom, boom, boom.
00:14:10.192 --> 00:14:23.921
Or if it hasn't, hopefully after listening to this session, you know it gives you a session of pause to maybe think about it and maybe try to put some plans in action, just in case shit.
00:14:23.921 --> 00:14:35.010
Just in case shit, because again, we can't plan or predict any given thing at any given moment.
00:14:35.010 --> 00:14:45.378
All we can do is control what's in our current surroundings and hope that we plan properly the first time, so we don't have to fix shit in the back end after the fact.
00:14:45.378 --> 00:14:49.971
But that's all I have for you this session.
00:14:49.971 --> 00:14:51.513
That is the end of our series.
00:14:51.513 --> 00:14:55.076
Fix shit in the back end after the fact, but that's all I have for you this session.
00:14:55.076 --> 00:14:56.298
That is the end of our series.
00:14:56.339 --> 00:15:00.845
I hope it gave everyone a good jump off point to get your plans in order so you can get yourself right.
00:15:00.845 --> 00:15:14.297
So if you stay ready, you don't have to get ready, and if and when certain scenarios present themselves, you would at least have thought about ways to to win in any of those particular situations.
00:15:14.297 --> 00:15:18.254
Maybe not all of them, but at least you know if the power goes out.
00:15:18.254 --> 00:15:21.404
You got a couple extra flashlights or some batteries.
00:15:21.404 --> 00:15:26.993
If you don't have any cash on hand right now, you're planning to be like you know what.
00:15:26.993 --> 00:15:35.211
Let me stash a couple extra 20s or 10s of ones at home securely If I need to get water.
00:15:35.331 --> 00:15:44.035
I know that I can survive a certain amount of time without water and I need to get water if I need it in any particular way.
00:15:44.035 --> 00:15:46.474
I need to make plans and all that stuff.
00:15:46.474 --> 00:15:51.729
I hope this series of sessions actually helped someone.
00:15:51.729 --> 00:16:03.350
Um, as always, I appreciate any feedback from any, any session or this particular series of sessions.
00:16:03.350 --> 00:16:09.808
I appreciate any and all feedback, whether it's positive or negative, because it's always about getting better for everything.
00:16:09.808 --> 00:16:19.566
But yeah, I hope each and every one of you have a great rest of your day and rest of your evening and I will catch you on the next session.
00:16:19.566 --> 00:17:05.372
Peace, thank you.
00:00:01.201 --> 00:00:04.591
00:00:04.591 --> 00:00:10.842
00:00:10.842 --> 00:00:21.490
00:00:21.490 --> 00:00:22.826
00:00:22.826 --> 00:00:34.631
00:00:34.631 --> 00:00:50.902
00:00:51.423 --> 00:01:16.332
00:01:16.332 --> 00:01:19.784
00:01:19.784 --> 00:01:23.661
00:01:23.661 --> 00:01:29.412
00:01:29.412 --> 00:01:52.707
00:01:52.707 --> 00:02:15.868
00:02:18.121 --> 00:02:21.570
00:02:21.570 --> 00:02:23.342
00:02:23.342 --> 00:02:39.074
00:02:39.074 --> 00:02:48.514
00:02:48.514 --> 00:02:51.365
00:02:51.365 --> 00:03:03.274
00:03:03.274 --> 00:03:09.588
00:03:09.588 --> 00:03:15.866
00:03:15.866 --> 00:03:21.062
00:03:21.062 --> 00:03:37.034
00:03:37.659 --> 00:03:47.132
00:03:47.132 --> 00:03:52.425
00:03:52.425 --> 00:04:01.453
00:04:01.453 --> 00:04:04.725
00:04:04.725 --> 00:04:07.432
00:04:07.432 --> 00:04:08.442
00:04:08.442 --> 00:04:09.343
00:04:09.343 --> 00:04:11.489
00:04:11.489 --> 00:04:22.704
00:04:24.767 --> 00:04:45.435
00:04:45.435 --> 00:04:50.367
00:04:50.367 --> 00:04:57.826
00:04:57.826 --> 00:05:00.052
00:05:00.052 --> 00:05:20.182
00:05:20.182 --> 00:05:29.540
00:05:29.540 --> 00:05:41.612
00:05:41.612 --> 00:05:50.329
00:05:50.329 --> 00:06:03.918
00:06:03.918 --> 00:06:04.841
00:06:04.901 --> 00:06:06.625
00:06:06.625 --> 00:06:09.502
00:06:09.502 --> 00:06:12.634
