I started learning at 27. Here are the notes from my learning journey.
I saw many success stories before I decided to start to learn programming. Stories about homeless people living out of their cars and somehow learning to program. My story is like you said, I had a professional career and a degree. My degree was Liberal Studies, I failed precalcus and logic twice in college, I never was too good at maths. I can say that you’ll be able to learn to program but you have to get out of the mindset that you need “help” to do it. Everything you need to know is somewhere on the internet. The skill a software engineer has is to google it and apply it to their work. I would suggest you find a good python or JavaScript $10 course on Udemy or follow [this free resource](www.theodinproject.com) and start. I made the switch at almost 40 years old. You have plenty of time.
