I'd like to add that most people think that math is all about equations and formulas, but it really is much deeper and beautiful. Math is the study of how things work and ultimately how the human mind things and deals with complexity.
You are right that math is very useful (it also depends on what kind of coding you do) but it is also very interesting and beautiful by itself when you learn it the right way. I think many people dislike, fear or misunderstand math because it is not taught correctly in schools.
Congrats for being eager to learn and improve your skills, you are on the right track here.
Finally, I would like to recommend you a coupke of things:
The paper "A mathematician's lament" by Paul Lockhart talks about what's wrong with how math is usually taught. A very nice and entertaining read.
The books "The art of computer programming" and "Concrete Mathematics" by Donald Knuth and others ate simply awesome. Try Concrete Math first as it has the math needed to read the art of computer programming and it really makes you think a lot, it is hard but rewarding and beautifully written.
