Episode description

Nadia first told us how she discovered coding, at the age of 25, as a second career. She painted her expat's story, leaving Belarus to Poland to reboot her professional life. We talked about interviewing. We talked about learning. And we talked about the book she wrote, "Crossing the Rubycon" (http://bit.ly/crossingrubycon), telling this exact story, plus many tips for fellow future second career devs.
