Today, we are diving deep into what it truly means to be fearless—whether you're launching a business, standing up to the local government, or just trying to live a sustainable life. <ul> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> Featured Event: Mark your calendars for the Dec 20 LFTN Christmas Reception—sign up now! </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> Sponsors: </li> <ul> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="2"> Wealthsteading Podcast: InvestableWealth.com </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="2"> DiscountMylarBags.com </li> </ul> </ul> Tales from the Prepper Pantry <ul> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> Broccoli rip cord </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> TSP left over saute </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> Peppers from Rick </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> Ready for whole cows </li> </ul> Shopping Report: Should we reboot this segment? Who wants to start going to Aldi on a weekly basis? Frugality Tip I was randomly looking at Etsy and saw someone selling something I was interested in that was local to me. I messaged them and asked about local pick up and cash price. They were very interested in cash money with pick up and I saved some money on my purchase. So ask, it will never kill you, and might save you a few dollars. Operation Independence 3-Month Rental at Basecamp: $800/month, Event Rental Launch Main Topic: Fearless Living – The Two Sides of "Go For It" We are talking about two forms of courage today: Professional Courage (to launch and critique) and Personal Courage (to be vulnerable and stand up). 1. The Courage to Launch and Critique: The Farm-to-Table AAR The Farm-to-Table Dinner was a huge "Go For It" moment. The real courage is in the fearless honesty of the After Action Review (AAR): Is this financially viable? $155 - 13/hour The Diagnostic Tool: The Homestead Revenue Stack We put the Dinner through our Homestead Revenue Stack to analyze where it sits and what it needs to succeed. <ul> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> The Dinner sits primarily in the Service Layer (Dinner/Class). </li> </ul> AAR Findings & Action Plan <ul> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> Logistics Check: Reality vs. plan mismatch. Example: "Sunset on paper vs. Sunset in the holler (30 min BUBBLE)." </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> Venue Needs: The oven/stove at BC needs an upgrade. </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> Experience Flow: Need better arrival/mingling flow. </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> Financial Fixes: We need to Price up, increase numbers at the dinner, and rely on Upsells. </li> <ul> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="2"> Opportunity: There is an opportunity for a premium cherry add-on for the dinner service. </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="2"> Action: Get the chef on the wild edible walk (to enhance the product layer). </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="2"> Action: If connected to a Farm-to-Table meal delivery service, that would be amazing. </li> </ul> </ul> 2. The Courage to Stand Up and Be Vulnerable: Local Politics Sometimes "Go For It" means stepping outside your established comfort zone for a cause greater than your business. <ul> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> The Event: Giving public testimony in front of county officials. </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> The Experience: I got nervous! My voice sounded emotional instead of my usual assertive self. </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> The Takeaway: The vulnerability made the testimony more powerful. Being involved in important local matters is one of the few ways we can truly make a difference for our communities, food freedom, and farmers. </li> </ul> Bringing it Home: Your Challenge to Go For It Courage is action, not the absence of fear. Don't wait until you're "ready." <ul> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> 1. Fearlessly Audit a Project: Go For It and audit a side hustle or homestead project using a framework like the Revenue Stack. Be honest about where you need to price up, fix it, or drop it. </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> 2. Go For the Hard Conversation: Go For It and speak up about a local issue or personal matter you know you should address. Your passion is more powerful than silence. </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> 3. Take the First Small Step: What is the one small, specific step you can take today to move toward a big goal? </li> </ul> Final Thought Sometimes, you just need to go for it. Make it a great week.
