In this podcast episode we discuss 9 tips to build confidence as a developer, drawing from our own experience + coaching 100+ (aspiring) Python developers.

We cover the importance of starting with small, achievable projects, breaking down complex problems into smaller tasks, and practicing regularly. 

Additionally, we emphasize the need for a strong mindset and learning from mistakes, as well as celebrating small victories and reflecting on personal progress. 

To further improve, we suggest contributing to open source, building a portfolio, and seeking guidance and support through coaching.

As usual, we also discuss our wins and books we’re reading 😍
