Live Ready is a faith based survival, bushcraft and preparedness channel presented by Clarise, a STASA qualified survival instructor (BSI-23-26) and Highfield Level 5 certified International Close Protection Officer (END9233623) and Preparedness Consultant stationed in the Western Cape, South Africa.

It is imperative that we factor survival and preparedness skills into a lifestyle of preparedness, especially in the times that we live in.

The Live Ready platform is here for us to share our experiences of acquiring wilderness survival skills, experience in preparedness as well as practical bushcraft skills in preparation for any circumstances that we may find ourselves in.

I believe that we can do this with the right skills and gear, all the while taking care of our environment and ensuring the sustainability and longevity of our resources and wildlife.

LIVE READY

Today I'm so grateful for the people who've supported Live Ready™ and our new gear range.

To all my friends who get dragged into impromptu photo sessions, the people who live abroad and send me pictures of Live Ready caps at different international airports. The ones who field test their gear and give such valuable feedback.

Most of all to the followers, partners and clients who've been supporting Live Ready for the past six and a half years through every development phase.

A heartfelt thank you.

LIVE READY

Hunter, reporting for duty as Head of Protection at the camp office.

He keeps hourly tabs on my whereabouts, and he’s also responsible for safeguarding our Head of Intelligence, Juniper, aloof and stationed in her upstairs headquarters.

That’s two females who can disappear in a heartbeat to go look at flowers, chase a breeze, or wander off on a whim. We girls have a natural talent for that — and somehow Hunter still manages to herd us in the same direction.

It’s a tough life being the alpha, carrying the weight so the ladies can feel safe enough to be soft, curious, and a little frivolous.

One guy, two girls, and he handles the job like it was made for him

The sewing machine again, I know, but I love creative work (not necessarily sewing) for the kick you get out of having put something together that looks good.

I feel the same when I've built a beautiful shelter or constructed some bushcraft implement like a pyramid trap that blends form and function.

Something you may not have known... I designed the Live Ready logo by hand. Computerized it on Paint of all programs, then perfected it through Photoshop layers. Now we have these epic Live Ready PVC patches that make my heart sing.

Yes, there is a rip-stop summer range on the way😎

Check out livereadygear.com for our current range.

Let's talk army combat uniform (ACU). More specifically ACU shirts. 

There's a reason why these fly off the shelf and it's not just because they look good in so many variations. 

Years of R&D has brought about uniforms that breathe under heavy webbing, allow for movement and still function in the way you would expect full rip-stop to do. With a clever organisation of multiple fabrics and room for elbow pads to be inserted, you can wear the best of both on your next hike, hunting trip or deployment.

LIVE READY

Driving home from the bush today I thought about all the positive roles that people had voluntarily played in my life which have left a lasting memory. The most prominent of these were all memories from my childhood of people who drew me closer or picked up the part when it was needed and ofcourse, my dad being my literal rescuer. 

Jung referred to aging as a profound inward journey -as you age you become less focussed on societal roles and external validation and more focussed personal wholeness. This correlates with Maslow's hierarchy in a subtle way through Jung's posit of the individuation process. 

How though, can a child learn to give back to society in adulthood if not for role models and even those who play a small role in the formation of their character from a young age?

Today I find myself in the middle. Feeling whole for being able to give of myself freely, and understanding now how that will lead young hearts to do the same later in their lives. 

If today you are a dad, remember the kids who don't have you as a role model, and if the opportunity presents itself, however small the means, then be a dad to those kids too.

Front page magic in KhakiBush Magazine. Live Ready and Sinakekele Children joined in a community outreach.

I'm amazed at how much it can mean to people🥰

Have a read through from page 98 to see how we helped the kids at Sinakekele and the rural community of Oakford to learn survival skills applicable to their every day lives.

Let's talk gear! Right at the top of my list is anything MOLLE.

The best of it is when it's quick and easy to attach or remove as is the case with the Live Ready battle belts (olive drab/khaki).

Composed of an inner hook and loop belt which fits through your pant's loops like a normal belt, and a MOLLE over belt with all pouches attached that then sticks onto the hook and loop (Velcro) belt. This means you can easily attach or remove all of the pouches simultaneously by just releasing the cobra buckle and pulling the top Velcro belt off from the one looped through your pants.

Easy on, easy off while remaining secure even in kinetic situations.

I wear my belts (yes I have two because one is none...) on training days and at the range. The versatile, removable pouches double as admin, gear and IFAK pouches and allow enough room for that carbine or second pistol mag pouch for mag change exercises.

Gear is my favourite topic because when you've found something you like you could live in the new gear.
If you choose it well, you'll wear it anywhere.
