It makes preparedness feel more manageable, more relevant, and more achievable.” > > \- Catherine K., NJ ## The problems we built BeAdvised to solve These are the situations we hear about from families around us. ### I don't need more articles. I need someone to talk to. Even with a clear path forward, some people need a human to walk beside them. Not more content — more support. ### I learn by talking it through, not by reading about it. Some people don't learn from reading or watching. They learn by asking questions, hearing answers, and having a real conversation. ### My situation is too specific for a generic answer. Complex family situations, unusual living arrangements, specific health needs. Their challenges need personalized guidance, not a general approach. ## Here's what we can tackle together. Pick the topic that fits. That's your session. ### Making sure your emergency plan is actually ready.

Personally. ![Brian Burk](https://staging.bepreparedsolutions.co/_next/image?url=%2Fimages%2Ffounders%2Fbrian.jpeg&w=3840&q=75) ### Brian Burk Co-Founder Both sets of my grandparents were farmers. I grew up hunting, butchering, and preserving food — then coming back to suburban life during the week. That hybrid upbringing gave me something most people never get: a real understanding of self-reliance before it became a topic. Today I grow and preserve my own food, hold a licensed HAM radio operator certification, and carry two sixth-degree black belts. I do my own home repairs and renovations. I also have an Ivy League MBA — so I think as much about systems and strategy as I do about skills and supplies. Preparedness, done right, is both. Available for BeAdvised sessions ![Tiran Dagan](https://staging.bepreparedsolutions.co/_next/image?url=%2Fimages%2Ffounders%2Ftiran-dagan.jpeg&w=3840&q=75) ### Tiran Dagan Co-Founder I've spent my career helping global organizations figure out what they need before they need it — across media, telecom, healthcare, and tech. I also teach graduate students how to build with AI. But what matters here is that I live this. My home has systems I built myself: a food rotation so nothing expires forgotten, emergency medical supplies for when care is limited, and emergency radios Brian and I designed and built from scratch. I'm a woodworker and fabricator. I believe knowing how to make and fix things with your hands is foundational to real self-sufficiency. Brian brings the fieldcraft. I bring the systems thinking. Together, we help families stop hoping they're ready — and start knowing they are.
