Gazza White, known as Australia’s most grounded survival strategist, warns that most families are dangerously unprepared for crises that could shut down daily life. After surviving near-death experiences and decades of “hard knocks,” Gazza explains why systems we depend on—power, water, and food—are fragile, and why panic is inevitable if people don’t prepare. His work focuses on teaching families to create simple, practical survival plans: securing water and food, learning essential skills, and knowing when and how to escape unsafe environments. Preparation, he reminds us, doesn’t need to be fear-driven—it can be an empowering family adventure rooted in foresight and resilience.
