How prepared are you for a grid down scenario? While grim estimates from the government estimate that up to 90% of the population could be wiped out after just one year without power, today's remarkable guest has a much more optimistic view. Today, I'm honored to be here with the one and only Mykel Hawke, a U.S. Special Forces Captain and Combat Veteran, TV Star, best-selling author and Outdoor Survival Expert. You might recognize Mykel Hawke from a number of TV shows, including Man, Woman, Wild where he and his wife Ruth, work together to survive in legit life-threatening situations like raging backcountry firestorms or being lost at sea with limited to no supplies. Mykel and Ruth resort to eating reptiles, bugs and even rotting raccoons in precarious situations. So if you want to conquer fear, be prepared for worst case scenarios and make survival preparedness fun for the whole family, this show is for you. In this episode with Mykel Hawke, you'll learn: • Why Mykel resorts to eating rodents, reptiles and bugs in sketchy situations • Simple methods to protect yourself against the real threats of the wild • How to collect and sanitize water in an emergency • How to make survival preparedness fun for kids • The 8 pillars of survival • How to face your fears from someone who's been stalked by jaguar through the Amazon jungle • And tons more… Read the show notes: https://fatburningman.com/mykel-hawke-8-pillars-of-survival-preparedness/ Check out and support Mykel Hawke at https://mykelhawke.com/ Join The Wild Guild and get freebies on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/abeljames  Like the show on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/fatburningman  Follow me on Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/fatburnman  And click here for your free Fat-Burning Kit: http://fatburningman.com/bonus
