Caleb North began his journey into survival and preparedness over 15 years ago, starting with military training and expanding into wilderness medicine, off-grid living, and emergency response. His passion for teaching these essential life skills stems from a deep belief that everyone should have the knowledge and confidence to handle unexpected situations.

This realization led him to develop his unique teaching approach that emphasizes hands-on learning and real-world application.
Today, Caleb continues to share his expertise through his books, training programs, and educational content, helping thousands of people develop the skills and mindset needed for true preparedness. His work focuses on making survival skills accessible to everyday people, regardless of their background or experience level.
"True preparedness isn't about having the most gear or the perfect plan. It's about developing the mindset and skills to adapt and overcome whatever challenges life throws at you."
