Having weathered the trials of drinking from a stream that gifted me giardiasis and tamed the stubborn infertile land of my homestead, I'm here to share the raw truths of off-grid living. Discover how to stockpile the essentials and select the perfect patch of land for self-reliance, while weaving through tales from Ontario's historical homesteads.

Throughout my time on YouTube over the past 8 years, I've shared glimpses of my life with my loyal audience. However, there are 167 hours of my week that still go unshared. Today, I'm clearing up some rumours and sharing what truly goes on in those remaining hours. Ever wonder what it would be like to pack up your life and embark on a journey towards complete self-reliance? Can you imagine selling your house, trading stocks for real estate, and building not just one, but two homesteads from the ground up? I'm Shawn James, and that's exactly what my family and I have done. Join us as we share our story of resilience, transformation and the extraordinary power of ordinary people. Shifting from the hustle and bustle of modern life to a self-sufficient lifestyle wasn't an easy task, especially with the challenge of maintaining our family's privacy while sharing the experience through YouTube. Yet, here we are, having constructed a rustic, 1400 square-foot house in rural Ontario, a thriving vegetable garden, an orchard, and even a solar power system. We've also dealt with the struggles and navigation of rumours due to gaps in our story – a necessary sacrifice to protect our privacy. As we unmask our journey towards self-reliance, you'll discover how we moved from the stock market to real estate, built a house and a cabin on an 8½ acre property, and sold our home to move into the cabin for a more self-sufficient life. This episode isn't just a story about resilience; it's about the balance between openness and privacy, the strength of community, and the beauty of building a unique legacy. So come, step into our world, and see what it truly means to create a life of resilience and self-sufficiency.
