Ted Riley
Ted Riley is an educator, survivalist, experienced homesteader, and a bestselling author.

With his years of studying wilderness and urban survival under his belt, he has combined extensive knowledge with personal experience of homesteading, which has resulted in engaging and informative style which underpins much of his work. His writing looks to help the modern family with preparing for any possible disaster in an accessible and warm way.

His passion for the outdoors led him to live a primarily nomadic life during his younger years, and he’s traveled the world, picking up this wealth of skills which feed into his work as a survivalist. His education is a practical one, and it’s left him perfectly positioned to teach other people in a way which speaks to their unique personal circumstances.

No journey is ever truly over for Ted, and he continues pushing towards greater independence and self reliance each and every single day. It is a passion which informs his work, and he’s totally driven to build on those early foundations that he gained as a boy scout during his education work and family life back on the homestead.

Ted lives in Oklahoma with his wife Kate and their two sons. With Kate’s background as a nutritionist and his own as a survivalist, they are confident that their family could thrive in the face of whatever disaster might happen.

Ted might be found in his free time mountain climbing, kayaking, or hiking with his family, who Ted cites as the driving force behind his firm belief in preparing for the unthinkable.

“When Crisis Hits Suburbia: A Modern Day Prepping Guide to Effectively Bug in and Protect Your Family Home in a Societal Collapse” is a non-fiction book that was released in 2021. Would your family survive in lockdown if society were to collapse? Learn exactly how to prepare your home now. Three quarters of all Americans say that they are worried about serious incidents, terror attacks, and natural disasters affecting their communities, but many of them are totally unprepared.

We’re used to this world where our homes are supplied with gas, fresh water, and electricity. We are used to having our waste removed and our sanitary needs always met.

These are things we have come to expect, however what would happen if they got taken away. Hurricanes, pandemics, and flooding are affecting areas that we once believed to be safe from disaster, so we should not take anything for granted.

Prepping isn’t just for preppers anymore; every family needs to be totally equipped to hunker down at home in case the unexpected happens.

Have you thought about what you’d do if you had zero access to running water? Do you have enough food to see you through months without a grocery store? Are you able to live comfortably in your home without any power?

These are the things that you really ought to be thinking about. Now’s the time to ask, what if?

“Prepare Your Home for a Sudden Grid Down Situation” is a non-fiction book that was released in 2022. Sure, you can stockpile all the rice you want, however do you even know how you’ll cook any of it should you be without power for months on end?

Once upon a time, disaster preparedness was a fairly niche past time. But today, it is becoming mainstream, and you just have to look at the headlines to see why.

Extreme weather events, growing unrest, and global pandemics. Each of these factors are in your consciousness all of the time. So it makes sense to be ready for the worst, and with celebrities like Ronda Rousey and Ryan Seacrest joining the ranks, more people are starting to understand why.

However despite such a growing trend, there is one thing that most people are missing.

You have stocked your pantry; you’ve got enough toilet paper to last you the next few months; you’ve got a bug out bag ready. However have you ever thought about what you’d do if the grid shuts down?

If the power grid fails, it is not just your lights that’d go out. It is your water supply, too. It is your cooling and heating system. It is all of your usual ways of doing the laundry and cooking food. Without the grid, life as we know it changes in an instant. Are you ready for that?

Do not panic. If your emergency preparedness plan has got a few holes in it right now, you are in the right place.

“The Bug Out Book” is a non-fiction book that was released in 2023. Nobody likes thinking about the worst case scenario. However if you’re unprepared, the ‘worst case’ could really become much worse than you ever imagined.

Just a quarter of US citizens have a go bag ready for an emergency. But the number of natural disasters occurring nationwide’s on the rise. We all hope that we’ll never need to have an emergency plan.

However the hard truth is that you will need to keep yourself and your family safe in case the unthinkable does happen. There is no harm hoping for the best so long as you’re ready for the worst, as Stephen King once said.

Preparing an emergency bag is vital, however knowing what to do next should disaster strike can mean the difference between living and dying. It’s just one piece of the puzzle to get your kit right, which is what many guides entirely focus on. However you also need to know where to go, how you’ll get there, how to sustain yourself through the crisis, and how to know it’s time to evacuate in the first place. Not having a complete plan behind a bug out bag is useless.

If you and your family are to be truly ready for the worst, you’ll need to have a full plan in place. And you’ll gain the blueprints for building precisely that.

This is everything you’ll need in a comprehensive guide to bugging out and protecting your family should you need to evacuate your home.
