Hey it's Chris from Organic Life Guru.
I'm always blown away about how much valuable knowledge and information is shared here in the Permies Community.
I believe a lot of the people here have so much to give and contribute to the world in terms of their knowledge and experience around farming, permaculture and even "intentional" lifestyle.
I just want to say that it is possible to have global impact and even decent income by sharing your knowledge. Many people get hung up about not being the best at the world at something, but it's important to remember that there is always someone a few steps behind you that could benefit from what you know.
The crazy thing is what can happen when you leverage the web to reach a global audiance. This website permies is a great example of that.
People are also overwhelmed by the amount of information out there. If you can get a little organized with your instructional materials, you can quickly become a go to resource on certain topics. Creating a website with WordPress and blogging is great, but if you create curated organized courses, your impact can really increase.
I would love to see more people getting the word out about permaculture, organic farming, alternative building, and the like with home made online courses.
I'm about to release what I believe to be the best WordPress powered learning management system currently available. It allows you to create and sell online courses and engage with your online community. You can also use it to create free courses, if you're not interested in charging for your courses.
It's called

Thank you for hearing me out, and I want to challenge you with one question:
What could you teach?
Think about a previous version of yourself and how you could help them evolve quicker into permaculture.
Think about using online education as a supplemental income stream to your real world permaculture activities and projects.
