Homestead living is often romanticized by those outside the lifestyle. Homesteading takes work and choices to live differently than the “norm”. Today I will talk you through the Holler Homestead’s spring 2022 plans. Because the clock is ticking on getting things planted, built and preserved for another year of abundance.

Today, I share with you some best practices on getting your podcasts and events promoted by others. Ever reach out to a personality and them get frustrated when they either did not respond or cross promote your stuff, or they shared the wrong information? This episode will increase your close rate for these sorts of communications.
Tales from the Prepper Pantry
Operation Independence
Main topic of the Show: Underground Networking and Promotion
What is underground networking?
Why this topic? (Moody)
“If I can help let me know”
Frustrations and communication
If we are going to make an underground network WORK, we need to learn to communicate the important information.
Problems
Why this is a missed opportunity (IF we all share eachothers podcasts, books, events, and the like we end up with a better ecosystem in which to operate)
Solution: Channel your inner Gabby
Underground networking is more than secret handshakes and selling eachother beef. It is about building our ecosystem and we can do this by cross promoting eachother’s work.
Our community is ripe for rabid growth
John is not wrong.
But It doesnt work to expect that someone will just know you are doing a thing. Sending a link to your website is a non starter and most websites are hard to go through to find the skinny.
We can all do better and make this happen - start by
See what happens next. I think you will be surprised

Flote Social Network: Flote.app
Main content of the show
Freedom of speech is important because if we do not discuss all of our ideas and learn from one another, we never progress. Further, it is immoral to force silence on another person simply because they say things you do not like. Over the past decade, the social media giants have slowly shown that they have no regard for individual rights and have used their large reach to control the social narrative. They silence, bully and erase people after those people have invested time and resources to build followings and businesses using the tools that the big social media giants provide.
Erin and Kinglsey Edwards have been fed up with this for a long time. Rather than sit around and complain about it, they launched flote.app, a social network platform that is moving toward decentralized system and encourages freedom of speech. If you set up an account there and say something that Kinglsey does not agree with, you will not be “cancelled’. Instead, people who do not agree with you will discuss it with you. Or not. Their choice.
And it is all about choice.This is a previously recorded interview with Erin Edwards and Alex Martin of flote about the importance of free speech, decentralized technology and so much more.

Today, I discuss what to do when you have an enemy. What an enemy is. And wether or not you can be successful if you do NOT have an an enemy.
Live this week!

From John: Is it wise to start a business that depends on supply chains?
Main topic of the Show: What to do when you have an enemy?
What is an enemy?
What do you do when you get one?
What if they simply will not go away?
e run across people who are envious of what we can do or of what we have. They want to control things that are none of their business. There are people who think that in order to get ahead, they must destroy those who they perceive as ahead of them. We encounter people with low self esteem. And yes, some people are simply evil.
The best revenge is to cut their balls off. Remove their power over you. Rarely is this not possible, and when it isnt, it is time to fight. But when it is, there is satisfaction for years and you end up on the moral high ground.

The definition of enemy is a person who is actively opposed or hostile to someone or something. So I guess the only enemy I have is the state. As far as individuals I think it might be possible to have no enemies. Because in the definition it says "actively oppossed or hostile". This is a very hard question though. I'm going to say it might be impossible to not have enemies because there will always be someone or some group of people that oppose you or your beliefs.

I have one enemy. My own assumptions. Everyone else, I try very hard to meet where they are or avoid them so they don't become enemies. I think back to all I used to believe and how much energy I threw into the various abysses we're told are important and wonder what else I'm throwing energy into that serves nothing.

About 5 years ago my grandfather and I were having a rare talk about his life and the choices he'd made. His life advice to me was a rally cry. With a fist raised in the air and a sly grin he shouted, "MAKE SOME ENEMIES!" 😄 My grandfather is fairly stoic so this was pretty memorable.
I've been thinking more about that lately. He and I are on different sides of the political spectrum so I know he didn't mean people who think the opposite of me are my enemies. Or people who disagree with me.
My understanding of his advice as it relates to me was more, "Stand up and make noise sometimes. It's not a bad thing to have people oppose you." Opposition can refine one's stance and clarify one's beliefs. In that sense, I find "making enemies" useful.
I'm still actively ruminating on the concept.
