I've had a few little exciting peaks here and there including articles becoming popular, or people finding my github repos useful, but those tend to be really exciting for a little while but don't last.

The one that really sticks with me is from a person who reached out to me to ask for mentorship via the wonderful CodingCoach platform. They were so close to giving up on themselves and their dream of becoming a software engineer, but after working with them, they found their spark again, finished their learning and went on to get a job as a dev!

I was genuinely over the moon that I could help someone because I know what it's like starting out and it can be a tough, lonely road.
