There's a better way to do this.

Let me show you a better way.

And we are live.

Welcome folks to episode 3,826 of the survival podcast.

And I'm excited today because we have a special guest to many of y'all hear from frequently

because he's a member of our expert council.

That is Kerry Brown from Strong Roots Resources.

And we're going to talk about what happens when you, if I'm going to build this really great homestead, I'm going to have all the things, I'm going to do all the things, I'm going to get all the animals, I'm going to have a garden, it's going to produce food for me, I'm going to be all kinds of self-sufficient and self-reliant. And then one day you wake up and go all I do is work this

thing owns me now it's gone into chaos mode I'm putting more work in than I

want to maybe it's not even you're putting more work in than results you get out

but like it just all seems like it's tedious you really want a better design you want

a system that actually works that's what carrie's going to talk to us about today and more

how do you actually use smart design so that your homestead is an asset instead of an anchor in fact

carry should probably take that and make that a marketing slogan right there make your homestead into an asset instead of an anchor. In fact, Kerry should probably take that and make that a marketing slogan right there.

Make your homestead into an asset instead of an anchor.

And this is something I struggle with myself too, like especially every time we travel.

It's not that big of a deal as long as we're here.

But sometimes I like the goal places and then I'm not here and then I need somebody that knows

how to work all the stuff.

And the more I design well, the more I automate, the more I can step away.

That's one of my goals, whatever your goals are.

Those need to be considered in your design decisions as you build out your homestead.
