At Survival Pro Tips, we believe in being ready for whatever life might throw your way. Since 2015, we’ve been dedicated to helping families across the globe become more self-reliant and better prepared. Whether you’re just starting out or you’ve been living the prepping lifestyle for years, we’re here to share practical advice, reliable resources, and a community of like-minded individuals.
Why Preparedness Matters
From unexpected power cuts and fuel shortages to the challenges of economic uncertainty, life has a way of catching us off guard. For nearly a decade, we’ve worked to demystify the world of prepping and self-sufficiency. We focus on realistic, achievable steps that anyone can take—no matter your experience level or the size of your garden.
Our goal is simple: to empower you with the tools and knowledge to stay safe, secure, and comfortable in any situation. It’s not about fear—it’s about freedom. Freedom from worry, from reliance on overstretched systems, and from being caught unprepared.
Who We Are
We’re everyday people who like to be as self-reliant as possible. We’ve been living this lifestyle for years, and we’ve learned a lot along the way. We’ve made plenty of mistakes and we’ve learned to do better.
Here’s a brief look at our founding team of experts. You can find more about them and the other writers on their author pages.
Katy Willis is our founder and one of the key driving forces behind Survival Pro Tips. She’s a writer, lifelong smallholder/homesteader, and master herbalist, master gardener, and canine nutritionist. Katy is a modern homesteader practicing everyday sustainability and green living.
She’s also a prepper who likes to make sure her family is ready for anything, because you just never know. Katy has a range of survival skills as well as homesteading, herbal medicine, and food preservation skills and firmly believes we would all benefit from a little more preparedness and self-reliance.
I (Pete) was born in the wilds of Cumbria, where self-reliance was (and still is) a way of life. My family worked the land, relying on our own hands and ingenuity to provide for ourselves. My parents taught me the skills needed to thrive off-grid, from growing and preserving food to mending fences and preparing for the unexpected.
I’m passionate about sharing what I’ve learned over the years—practical, no-nonsense advice that helps others take control of their own lives and feel ready for whatever comes their way. For me, prepping isn’t about fear; it’s about independence, resilience, and being ready to face life’s challenges head-on.
