Hi! Right now I'm looking for a starting point in cybersecurity. I've bought some online courses but I feel like there's so much theory and nothing practical, for me it seems like I don't learn anything useful from them. Can you recommend me some trusted sources like a 'hackers playground' or useful books to start with? I know cybersecurity is a very large domain and there are many paths to take but I want to experience all of them so I can eventually focus on one. TIA!

If you want a practical Cyber Securitycourse check out Dr. Roger Schank and Schank Academy.

I'll have to defer to @laserblue on this one. Cybersecurity is outside of my domain of expertise.
