We can encourage each other to make this possible 🤗

This is EXACTLY what I needed.... saw this video during a break from online class; working on my bachelor's in Computer Science to become a web developer (I know I can get there without a degree, but graduating college is something I wanted to do to show my children that it's never too late to finish what you start). I'm a 42 Y/O single African-American father of three daughters, and I'm currently a GM in retail. Those hours and decisions on sleep versus study/ life are REAL!!! I've had a few thoughts on giving up in the last few months, but im dusting myself off to keep learning. This struck me deep and gave me the spark I didn't know I needed tonight. Thank you both for the inspiration!!! I'm going to make my daughters proud, no matter what.

I used to be a motorcycle courier for DHL on a small island in the Caribbean. I've never had anything even close to a degree in any aspect of IT. 40 years later, I've probably done everything in tech except actual systems programming. But I've done system administration, networks, databases, PBXs, programming in various computer languages. I'm not the best at anything but people kept paying me enough to maintain my family and build a home. I just bought the books and tried things out. The key thing is not to give up. Do not give up. They will knock you down. Do not give up. This guy, Lawrence Lockhart, is an inspiration to me! I just want to give support to his testimony. I really respect his message.

I am a professional nurse but I watched this video so that I can learn how you transitioned from being a GM at a restaurant to a developer. I agree that age is not important but your willingness to put in the work and retaining what you have learned. I will pass this info to my son-in-love b/c he completed a coding boot camp but has not been hired yet as a software engineer. I want him to stay motivated and focused on his goals. He is working in a warehouse currently as a supervisor but he walks 10-13000 step everyday. He is so tired when he get home and their 4 year old daughter wants him to go outside and jump on trampoline but he is too fatigued. It’s time for a change.

I can say that the challenges before me on this journey are overwhelming. 1. I am currently same age as Lawrence right now (51, turning 52 in a few days' time) 2. I currently live in a third world country, where inflation is at an all time high 3. I am currently an IT generalist with businesses facing very difficult environment 4. I am married with two children, my first son about to get into the University. 5. Most companies in my country see professionals of my age to be retired and have nothing to offer. And many more challenges. But, I believe I can still get there if I put in all the work. It will be tough, as income is almost zero right now, but I will not give up. Thanks

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="313">5:13</a> into the video and had my bread, thank you Chris!. I am 36 a high school Maths teacher in South Africa trying to learn programming. Specifically coding Robots and web development. I actually stopped watching the video and went straight to my books after the aforementioned time. Real inspiration!

This issue deserves greater attention. It seems that the media, including social media, often portrays developer roles as exclusively belonging to young, stereotypically "nerdy" 23-year-olds. However, the reality is that I've frequently observed mothers in their mid-30s and older thriving in developer roles, as well as individuals who defy our preconceived notions of how a developer should appear, communicate, or behave...

Great interview!! Very interesting . But 5 years back, the job market looked so much different .. I wander if it is possible for Lawrence to make that transition now? 😮

That’s what I’m doing right now. I’m 48 and I already know more than I did a few months ago. I can’t wait to see where my progress will be in a year!

Great talk with someone who proves age is just a number when it comes to doing something that you know is going to monumentally alter your life. Lawrence gave some great advice and insight how many of us who are already established with family, work and kids can still put the work in to eventually break into tech and earn our time back. Also earn some real coin! Great session again!
