About our products

Nerd-
Approved
Our team went all the way down the preparedness rabbit hole (so you don’t have to) and broke the best practices into easy-to-digest chunks.

Created with Love
We want you to handle challenging times with grace & peace. Our tools plan for the emotional challenges that may lie ahead.

Wrapped in Style
If we have to prepare, let’s do it with flair. Our team of designers and illustrators have created sexy, artful tools to ease the path.

Laugh Along the Way
We’ve injected corny jokes into every nook and cranny, so you can giggle your way to resilience. Commence the eye rolling!

Print Is
Better
We have created physical products because digital records only work if you have power. A good disaster plan is a printed disaster plan.
The Disaster Bundle includes:

Master of Disaster
The Master of Disaster aka Official Out-of-Town Contact is the linchpin in a well-thought-out disaster plan. Fill out this digital guide to make sure they have everything they need to know if they get called to duty.

Emergency Buddy
Your pocket-sized disaster plan. Includes designated meeting places, important contact information, and health reminders. Put one in every purse, backpack, and glove compartment!

Disaster Deep Dive
Sorry to say, but climate change is accelerating extreme weather events. Learn what to do to prepare for specific situations and what actions will help keep you safe when it all kicks off.

Grab & Go Checklist
Post your checklist in your kitchen and bedroom for easy reference, in case you have to bug out and quick. One for you and one for your partner: divide and conquer without dwelling on decision-making.

Important Papers Pack
Make sure you have everything you need with this easy-to-follow checklist that also stores your docs. Keep the original docs in a safe, and make copies for the Important Papers Packs in your Go Bag and Stay Bag.
Are these tools right for me?
I have some beans in a closet. Have I already prepared?
You’ve tried to do disaster prep before? How far did you get? Most people don’t finish! Even if you’re already partially prepared, you’re in the right place. Our Disaster Bundle is designed to keep you moving toward your prep goals by eliminating surprises and making it fun!
I’m a big nerd. Is this nerdy enough for me?
Do you secretly miss doing homework? You’re in luck. We’ve brought back the unbeatable combo of textbook and workbook that kept you in gold stars and green checkmarks every day of your young life. The Disaster Playbook and I Will Thrive Manual are here to make acing your self-imposed Disaster Prep 101 class easy. Break out the highlighters. There’s prepping to do.
I don’t want to be a prepper.
Neither do we. It’s way too easy to find hardcore prepper literature… and not so easy to find guides for families who don’t fantasize about living underground. Until now! The Here Comes the Apocalypse Disaster Bundle is made by and for people who want to be sufficiently prepared without making it their entire personalities. We understood the assignment: comprehensive, not obsessive.
Can’t I prepare for free?
Yes, you can! Well, probably not for FREE… you’ll likely have to buy some gear, no matter what. We developed a disaster prep system that eases some of the most difficult parts of preparing (organizing, collecting useful information, motivating action, and more) to make it easier for busy families to complete disaster plans. We’ve found that most people who try to prepare alone are very likely to give up on the process before they finish. The Disaster Playbook gives you a discrete set of tasks, and the end is always in sight. We hope you’ll find its attributes as valuable as we do!
Isn’t it too late to prepare?
That’s quitter talk! It’s never too late. If your house is already on fire, put it out and then prepare so you’re ready next time.
Won’t the government save me either way?
Yes and no. Despite the current arguments about how much tax money we can spend on actual public goods before we succumb to The Dreaded Socialism, government services are in no way unlimited. Alert and recovery systems are fairly robust, but could easily be stretched super thin by extreme weather events. People who practice what to do in dangerous scenarios, have supplies to get them through the hardest part, and can quickly access important information immediately after a disaster experience less suffering. Do you like your suffering mild, medium, or spicy? Prepare accordingly.
Should you be joking at a time like this?
We are literally laughing to keep from crying. We have seen the extreme end of disasters firsthand, and know that even that experience is not enough to motivate us to finish our disaster prep. Thousands of households are not prepared, and have no motivation to prepare, despite being both extremely online and extremely in harm’s way. The jokes are to keep you engaged and moving forward. We would do handstands and back flips and spin plates if it would get more people to gather supplies and make plans, but all we know how to do is make jokes. We really hope it works.

About the author

Mom and pro-catastrophizer Jennifer Heller set out to prepare her family for disasters after her in-laws lost their home in California’s Tubbs Fire.
But all of the resources online were either super boring and convoluted… or super rightwing hardcore prepper. She’d fall asleep from boredom every time.
A career entrepreneur who runs a design and marketing firm, Heller knew that someone needed to distill the complicated process of preparing into easy-to-digest chunks and wrap it in fun to make the process palatable for today’s overwhelmed parent.
Having been a Girl Scout until age 18 and a prestigious Gold Award recipient, Heller has a lifetime of preparedness skills under her belt. As a mother of two young kids, she is well-versed in the art of worrying about the great many things that can go wrong in life.
She’s always had a dark sense of humor. She wondered – why not mix the practical with the macabre?
Along with a team of copywriters, researchers, and illustrators, Heller has broken down the preparedness process into easy-to-follow steps and integrated as many corny jokes and illustrations as possible to create the Disaster Playbook. Prepping isn’t just for preppers any more.
Time is short
Doomsday is so close we can taste it, but the warm winters sure are nice. Enjoy those sunny weekends to the fullest by investing in your peace of mind.
Do it quickly and as painlessly as possible with our books and templates. All are served with a heavy helping of our signature sauce.

Welcome to the end of the page! Your reward for finishing the journey is this:
One of this preteen’s favorite pastimes was constructing elaborate emergency scenes on the dining room table out of the family’s extensive LEGO collection.
Picture trains crashing, tiny plastic body parts scattered, and police and ambulances in action, saving the day.
Is it any wonder she grew up to write a preparedness playbook? You know it’s going to be weird. Better get the bundle.
