Thanks for sharing your story! I went through a rollercoaster of emotions. At some point, I realized I was screaming - I was lucky to be alone in the room then lol - That first offer is the root of all the feels. You had quite the journey and you deserved it.

I totally agree that learning on your own, like anything else in life, is challenging. Self-discipline is not something one can develop overnight. I would say the freecodecamp certifications could have made the path more straightforward as they rely on the project based learning approach. Looking forward to reading more from you.
