Welcome back to the Pybites podcast. This week we have a wonderful chat with Michael Knott.
We talk about the most valuable things about Michael's Python journey, including what he achieved through our PDM program.
We talk about:
- Michael's work as a fitness coach and how he got into Python as a tool to automate repetitive tasks in his daily work.
- How he improved his Python and developer skills in PDM with us.
- What challenges he faced when started his programmer journey.
- Some really cool technologies he has learned and applied in his apps so far.
- How the things he learned with us are positively impacting his craft.
- How he gained confidence in spite of feeling imposter syndrome (e.g. getting his code out there).
- And ... (as usual) how important the mindset side turned out to be.
We also celebrate wins and share what we're reading (book links below).
