Episode Details

After 11 years helping hundreds of career changers switch into software development, I've found the hardest part isn't teaching technical skills but rewiring brains from misleading online advice that hurts new developers. 

Much of this advice is well-intentioned, but some is designed purely for clicks and engagement.

• "Don't chase titles!"
• "Don't build CRUD apps!"
• "Coding bootcamps are a scam!"

Take all advice (including mine) with a grain of salt. 

Your path is unique, and a personalized approach to career development is more effective than generic advice. 

Question everything, take what makes sense, and leave what doesn't.
