Yup, as mentioned it takes a certain level of certain level of self motivation to persevere, but it's much better being told "you can do it" as opposed to conventional myths surrounding what makes a good developer.

I've seen a lot of people from underrepresented areas change their life for the better (myself included) with coding, so it's good to share these stories to help change the narrative. :)
