Learning to Code - For Self Doubters | Ep#47
Learning to Code as a Self-Doubter is almost impossible. So Here’s How The Select Few Have Done it.
“Learning to code after 30” feels like climbing Everest in flip-flops—confusing errors, AI spaghetti, and soul-crushing self-doubt. But what if the struggle isn’t failure… but proof you’re on the right path? This episode breaks down why your messy, imperfect code is secretly building your future—and why tutorials and bootcamps keep most career changers stuck in a loop of shame.

*** SHOW SUMMARY***
Ever feel like coding isn’t made for “people like you”? Like you’re too late, too old, or just not smart enough? I was a 37-year-old lawyer crying at 1:40 AM over an error message—until I decoded the lies. Today, I’m giving you the mindset rewrites and practical survival kit I wish someone gave me before I landed my job at Google.
💥 Why coding bootcamps fail 80% of career changers? They skip this critical mindset shift…
💡 Want to know the 3 silent killers of self-taught devs—and how to outsmart them? It’s not what you think.
⏱️ Episode Breakdown
🚨 The Lie Big Tech Tells You
• Struggling isn’t failure—it’s how senior devs level up.
• Your breakdowns are building blocks. Use them.
💣 Why Tutorials Keep You Stuck
• “Learning” ≠ doing. Most tutorials are just busywork.
• Build one ugly, meaningful project instead.
🧠 Debug Like a Google Engineer
• Senior devs aren’t smarter—they’re just calmer.
• Error messages aren’t walls—they’re treasure maps.
🤫 The 3 Silent Killers of Aspiring Coders
• Ambiguity. Imposter Syndrome. Silent suffering.
• Kill these, or they’ll kill your dreams.
🛠️ Turn Imposter Syndrome Into Your Superpower
• Use “I don’t know… yet” to win interviews and crush fear.
• It’s not about confidence—it’s about proof you can learn.
