I'm actually an ICU Nurse and after this very long year, it got me thinking that it's time for a change. Now at 30 years of age, I've decided to go for a career change in Web Development, just started to learn code this past two weeks, and I'm doing my best not to feel overwhelmed by the amount of stuff I have to learn. Anyway, I'm only going forward now, and I'm now subscribed to you channel! All the best 😁 keep up the great work!

I have been scared to learn, because of the 'imposter syndrome' thing you're talking about. But I'm going to keep learning, and get to Javascript and others after HTML/CSS.
