A serious deep dive into Sam's entire journey of becoming a coder. January to September, he went from knowing nothing about coding to a junior web developer. What's more, he's done it at 41 years old, having been a life coach for the last few years. If you're wondering how this journey plays out, how to learn programming efficiently, how does learning to code affect you mentally and how to best prepare psychologically, how does it feel to finally land a job, what are the biggest difficulties, how to stay motivated, what are best sources to learn programming from - then this video is for you.
