In this week’s episode of The Unstoppable Real Estate Agents Podcast, we sat down with Pat Wattam of the Pat Wattam Five Star Team at RE/MAX First Realtors in Baton Rouge, LA.
Pat brings a truly unique background, blending careers in music and fine art with decades of success in real estate. Her adventurous spirit and dedication to clients have earned her a stellar reputation. But perhaps most importantly, living through countless hurricanes has made Pat a go-to expert on emergency preparedness.
In this episode, Pat shares practical, often overlooked tips to help you prepare for disasters of all kinds, from floods to hurricanes and tornadoes. Here’s what you’ll learn:
✅ Why preparing from day one matters, and how to build a checklist of essentials like food and water.
✅ How to assess local risks and create a personal emergency action plan.
✅ The importance of planning where you’d go and stay during an evacuation.
✅ Why stocking long-term supplies is critical, some emergencies last longer than you’d expect.
✅ Steps to protect your property by securing items that could turn into dangerous projectiles.
✅ How to store enough water (even filling bathtubs) and keep fuel on hand to power generators or travel when shortages hit.
✅ Lessons learned from past storms and how to adapt your plans.
✅ Why it’s smart to keep cash on hand in small bills to cover expenses when power outages shut down card systems.
