This episode is especially important for those of you that are in the middle of a career change or about to embark on this journey. Carmen does not sugar coat it. You will see that a transition can be hard. Carmen shares a story of a time she had used up all of her savings and she was made redundant from her first tech job. But she kept going, she went all in, she kept fighting and today she is in a job that gives her tremendous satisfaction. Her lesson that quitting is forever, but suffering is temporary will make you see the process of changing a career in a new light. I am sure that Carmen's tenacity and fighting spirit will inspire you.

This episode is especially important for those of you looking to make a career transition and for those who are thinking about completing a coding bootcamp. We discuss what it was like to complete a coding bootcamp while working and why a part-time bootcamp might be a great option for some people. Find out why asking for help is crucial and how you can boost your confidence if you don't feel ready to apply for your first job. For those of you who can't seem to code consistently, Božena and I have a few tips on what you can do to stay motivated.

In today's episode, Henriette shares with us what it was like to complete a coding bootcamp and make a career transition in her 60's. Henriette started to code as a hobby. From her, I learned that if you like to code, you need to keep going because you never know where it could possibly take you. Henriette has built her own websites, using Python and Django, she has contributed to open source projects and is now doing some of the most important work of her life.
