The Annual
Off-Grid Summit
Build a more resilient, self-directed life by seeing the whole picture first. Tihamtu Chaos-Dragon opens Day 1 with the WholeStead™ Framework, showing how Water, Power, Food, Shelter, and Income belong in one connected plan. She will introduce all 10 vendor presenters, then close the day with an All-Access Vendor Party before two more days of useful vendor conversations.
See the Whole Picture Before You Build
Building a more self-directed life can feel like five separate projects. Water decisions affect food. Power changes what shelter can support. Income shapes what you can build and when. The WholeStead™ Framework brings those decisions into one view, so you can choose your next step with the whole system in mind.
On Day 1, Tihamtu Chaos-Dragon makes that way of thinking practical. She explains what the WholeStead™ Framework is, why it works, and how Water, Power, Food, Shelter, and Income strengthen one another. Then she introduces the vendor presenters who will carry the conversation forward across Days 2 and 3.
The WholeStead™ Framework
A connected way forward
Water, Power, Food, Shelter, and Income give you five clear places to look, while the framework keeps every decision connected to the life you want to create.
The Voices Behind the Whole Picture
Tiha opens the door to the whole system. Ten vendor presenters join her across Days 2 and 3, bringing the people and perspective behind Water, Power, Food, Shelter, and Income into one room.
