From “I Can’t Do This” to “Look What I Built!”

“How I loved this course… my God in heaven. It was very, very, very good.”

When Natália signed up, she didn’t even know what no-code meant. Her husband sent her the link, and on a whim—during her birthday week, no less—she thought: Why not?

She didn’t expect to fall in love with it. But she did.

Every new tool was like discovering a hidden part of herself. Airtable? Obsessed. TypeDream? A little lonely at first (“I thought I was doing everything wrong”), but she stuck with it. Even Glide—her biggest challenge—became a turning point.

There were nights she thought she wouldn’t finish. That the mission was too hard. But then came a call from a course buddy, a shared screen, a bit of encouragement—and suddenly, she was back in the game.

For someone who once believed studying wasn’t for her, Natália surprised herself. She built a capstone project she was proud of. She started thinking in systems. She realized that even when it’s hard, she doesn’t give up.

And maybe most important of all? She started to see a version of herself she actually liked. Capable. Curious. And yes—totally techy.
