Just added a philosophy of YouTube course, and I’ve been spotting a decent amount of new members! If you’re new here! Welcome! I’m very grateful to have you all here. Just adding a poll because I’m curious what you all are most keen on me focusing on in the immediate future as I build this out.

There’s no grand launch here, just a quiet beginning. This community isn’t about “hacks,” or “growth,” or chasing perfection. It’s about the craft of living and creating, calmly, honestly, and deliberately. Whether you came here from the sea, the camera, the page, or the restless need to build something real, welcome. Here, we believe less is more. We film with what we have. We work with our hands. We share what’s true, not what’s polished. I’ll be posting lessons, challenges, and reflections from the paths we walk together, creation, seamanship, minimalism, and freedom. But before we start, introduce yourself below. Tell us: - What brought you here? - What are you working on or dreaming about? - And what does “The Way of the Mariner” mean to you? Welcome aboard, friend. Calm hands. Honest work. — Barry

I am creating a sail cargo business, sailing tequila from Mexico to Canada on a tallship, raised a ton of cash through YouTube through my community and now have a real shot at creating something huge and maybe change the way we ship goods internationally for a sustainable future. https://youtu.be/_6r7AUnUouI?si=Vt8uy7Cc9ZdVxxtI
