In this episode, we examine the question of whether or not coding bootcamps are "worth it."

In order to answer this question, we'll first have to examine what people mean by the word "worth", which is typically an inquiry about the state of the market. We'll also talk about ways to make sure you thrive in your bootcamp experience.

In this episode, we examine two differing mindsets that one can take when learning to code. They're both valid, but they'll each influence your goals and how you spend your time in distinct ways.

Here we'll uncover the characteristics of each mindset and some examples of the implications that each could have on your coding journey. Reflecting on which approach resonates most with you will help you prepare for learning to code, or to shift strategies if you've already begun.

Today we're talking about the most valuable thing that learning to code has given me. It isn't a career, a well-paid job, or really anything tangible. It's a mindset.

Learning to code gives you the mindset of figuring things out and solving your own problems. In this episode, we talk about why coding gives this mindset, the qualities of the mindset, and how to develop this mindset in yourself.
