Join the What If Membership

Introducing… The What If Membership

Your No Panic Path to Family Emergency Readiness

The What If Membership isn’t your typical emergency preparedness group, and it’s definitely not about bunkers, fear, or doing the most.

It’s a monthly membership designed for busy moms, who want to feel calm, capable, and confident when the unexpected hits. Whether it's a water main break, a cyber attack, or a natural disaster.

Inside, you won’t be told to prep for the end of the world. You’ll be guided step by step to prepare for the real world in a way that fits your family, your values, and your life.

This isn’t about doing everything.

It’s about doing the right things with clarity, support, and zero panic.

Inside You'll Get:

Personalized Support

A Free one-on-one call to identify where you’re struggling and where to start your preparedness journey.

Monthly Guidance

Live deep dives on “What If” scenarios to see what could happen and exactly how to prepare.

Community Connection

Access to a supportive Facebook community of like-minded parents and prep-minded families.

All of this support (and more) is just $15/month

Because peace of mind shouldn’t be out of reach.

Yes! I Want In for $15

Life throws surprises at all of us. Some we can plan for, some we can't.

What would you do if the primary income earner lost their job today? Or you had to evacuate in ten minutes? Or the grocery store shelves were empty?

The What If Membership helps you think through real-life “what ifs” and build practical step by step plans for your family without stress or guesswork.

You will finally know what to do, what to focus on, and how to feel confident your family is ready for whatever comes next.

Because when you have thought it through, prepared for it, everyone at home can breathe easier, especially you.

The Cold Hard Truth: You Likely Won't Get a Warning Before Emergencies Happen

You don’t get to pick the timing.

You just get to choose whether or not you’re ready.

Because when the power goes out, the shelves are bare, or the earthquake strikes no one is coming in those first hours or days. No one except you.

And without a plan, that panic and pressure falls squarely on your shoulders.

Once the storm hits or the grid goes down, it’s too late to wish you’d done more.

But here's the thing:
This isn’t about going off-grid or filling your garage with gear.

It’s about building a simple, realistic plan that fits into your already full life so you can lead with calm when your family needs you most.

Think of it like a family insurance policy one that doesn’t cost thousands or take weeks to put together.

Just a smart, steady approach that gives you real peace of mind… before the next emergency catches you off guard.

The window to get prepared is always closing. But right now? It’s wide open.

Let’s get your plan in place before life forces your hand.

Peace of Mind Starts Now

Meet the Mom Behind
Prepared Like a Mother

Hi! I'm JaNae! I’m a wife and a homeschooling mom of four, running a business, barely keeping up with laundry…

And I’m still prepared for emergencies.

Not because I’m superhuman.
Not because I’m a doomsday prepper.
Not even because I’m anxious (although being prepared definitely helps with that).

I’m prepared because I’ve learned how to make emergency preparedness part of everyday life without the stress or overwhelm.

I’ve simplified it in a way that works for real moms with real lives.

And now I want to teach you how to do the same.

I've Been Prepared in Every Stage of Life:

-As a newlywed, broke as a joke, in a tiny apartment.
-As a new mom in a small duplex, still living paycheck to paycheck.
-As a mom of two, house poor in a townhome, stretching every dollar.
-As a mom of three, moving into my husband’s grandparents’ house to care for them. Finally with storage space, a little more money, and a lot more responsibility.
-And now, as a mom of four, living full-time in a 37-foot RV traveling the country. Still prepared, still showing up.

Every step of the way, I figured out how to take care of my family, even when life was tight, messy, and chaotic.

Because I’m the mom.
I’m the one my kids look to when things go sideways.
And I take that role seriously.

That’s why I started Prepared Like a Mother. To help other moms feel confident and capable when it counts.

And now, I’m inviting you into the What If Membership, a monthly membership for busy moms who want to keep their families safe, calm, and cared for in any “what if” scenario. Without panic, pressure, or perfection.

This isn’t about prepping for the end of the world.

This is about being ready for your world. Whatever that looks like.

I know what you're thinking...

➤ "I don't have time for this."

The truth is, you won't have time during an emergency either. Preparing now means protecting your family without losing your mind later.

➤ "Nothing like that ever happens here."

That's what everyone says, until it does. Job loss, power outages, illness, storms, they're not a matter of if, but when.

➤ "It's not in the budget right now."

Emergencies are far more expensive than prevention. Spoiled food, missed paychecks, or last-minute hotels cost way more than being prepared. (PS would you believe me if I told you that I can get prepared without spending a ton of money? Because I can.)

➤ "I'll figure it out when I have to."

In fight-or-flight mode, clear thinking is impossible. Your family needs you calm, prepared, and ready. Not scrambling for answers.

If you're ready to stop stressing about the “what ifs” and finally feel confident knowing your family’s actually covered, keep reading. What’s coming next is a calm, clear plan that makes sense for your life. Without the overwhelm, without the crazy.

Insights from Experts in Family Preparedness

Jason M. @preppingwithpappy

"In the few short years that I have known JaNae, she has demonstrated nothing but genuine care and concern for people’s well being and wanting to help them become better prepared to face whatever emergency, disaster, or event that they face in life. As a wife and mother of 4 young kids, her life is already busy and full, yet she dedicates time to help anyone who asks it of her. She is more than a preparer, she is a nurturer, and she demonstrates that as she gives of her personal resources to help others. For these reasons, I support JaNae in her efforts with Prepared Like a Mother and her Inner Circle."

Reine @mindfullyprepared

JaNae is a wonderfully distinct voice within our preparedness community. I always enjoy her down-to-earth, family-focused content, and I’ve personally learned a lot from her. I especially like how she finds ways to make preparedness topics (which can sometimes be scary!) easier for younger kids to understand and practice. But what I like most about Prepared Like a Mother is that JaNae is not only sharing about preparedness online, she’s living it in the real world, every day. She’s the real deal!

Why a Membership, Not Just a One Time Purchase?

Your preparedness journey deserves more than a checklist. And I actually have a one time product. The Emergency Preparedness Workbook.

One Time Product: The Emergency Preparedness Workbook

My Emergency Preparedness Workbook Is the perfect starting point. It helps you build a custom plan for your family, covering the essentials like food and water storage, 72-hour kits, and creating a solid family plan. It gives you the what and helps you personalize it.

But sometimes, you need more than a plan. You need momentum.

Ongoing Support: The What If Membership

The What If Membership brings emergency preparedness to life with guidance, accountability, and community.

Each month, we focus on one real-life “what if” scenario and go deeper with:

Live calls to walk you through the steps and make a plan that fits your family

What If Wednesdays turned into real conversations and actionable strategies

Support and feedback from other parents navigating the same challenges

Step-by-step guidance without overwhelm so you’re never stuck wondering “Am I doing this right?”

Think of the workbook as your recipe book.

The membership? That’s cooking together in real time with a chef guiding you every step.

From Overwhelmed to Ready

Let’s Talk About the Price (But Also What It’s Really Worth)

Let’s talk about something even more important than price: peace of mind.

Because when an emergency hits, it doesn’t care if you’re busy, tired, or stretched thin. And the truth is preparedness gives you options. It gives you the ability to protect your family, stay calm in the chaos, and avoid scrambling when everything else feels out of control.

That’s what this is really about. Not just a membership, not just another thing on your to-do list, but your lifeline when things go sideways.

What’s the Real Cost of Being Unprepared?

Last-minute panic buys when a storm is coming? $200+
Spoiled food in a power outage? $100s
Lost income from missing work? Easily $1,000+
Emergency lodging or supplies when stores are wiped out? Don’t even get me started

Being unprepared is expensive and stressful. But when you are prepared? Everything changes. You're the one who stays steady, protects your people, and makes smart decisions because you already thought it through.

You’re Not Just Spending Money. You’re Building Peace of Mind

This isn’t about spending. It’s about finally feeling like you’ve got a plan. Like you’re not crossing your fingers and hoping everything’s fine. You actually know what to do and know everything will be fine.

$15 a month is less than one takeout meal or one random Target run. And the return? Confidence. Clarity. Security. You’re going from What do I even do? to I’ve got this.

So, are you ready to stop waiting for “someday” and start preparing for real life?

Let’s make it happen. You’re more capable than you think. And your family is worth it.

I’m Ready For Peace Of Mind!

Real Talk from Real Moms

You’re the Backup Plan… But Who’s Helping You Prepare?

Hey, Mama. I see you.

You’ve got a lot on your plate, and somewhere between school drop-offs and dinner, there’s this quiet voice asking, “Would we be okay if something happened?”

You’ve tried. Maybe you bought a flashlight, saved a few Instagram tips, or searched for emergency kits before closing the tab because… yikes.

You’re not failing. You’re just overwhelmed and no one’s made preparedness feel doable.

You don’t need to prep for the end of the world.
You just need a plan that fits your family.

You’ve Got a Choice to Make

Let’s be honest... doing nothing is always the easier option in the moment.

You could keep putting it off. Keep telling yourself you’ll “figure it out later.”

But deep down, you know that later usually turns into never. And when an emergency hits, there’s no pause button. No extra time to plan.

So here’s what it comes down to:

Option 1: Keep winging it.
Hope for the best. Stay stuck in that cycle of “I really should do something…” but never actually do. Keep carrying the mental load and wondering if your family would be okay if something unexpected happened.

Option 2: Do something different.
Take one small, clear step toward being the steady, prepared, calm mom your family can count on. No overwhelm. No doom. Just realistic support, broken down into simple steps that fit into your actual life.

If you're hesitating because you're thinking...

"I don’t know if I really need this right now…"

Ask yourself this:
Can you really afford to not be ready?

Emergencies don’t show up when it’s convenient. They don’t wait until you feel less busy or have more time.

This isn’t about being paranoid.

It’s about being prepared and having peace of mind that you’ve got this if and when life throws a curveball.

This is your moment to lead with confidence.

Not just for you... but for your kids.

For the people who are counting on you to have a plan.

And for your own peace of mind when the “what ifs” start creeping in.

Don’t wait until you wish you had done something.

Join Prepared Like a Mother: Inner Circle today and finally feel good about how ready you actually are.

Yes! I Needed This!
