> Early on, Valerie realized that she unconsciously thought of literally every single job other than software engineer as “for people who weren’t good enough to be a software engineer” – and that she thought this because other software engineers had been telling her that for her entire career.

Just want to add that the "lets teach everyone to be programmers" idea that constantly gets paraded around is just another form of this. Not everyone waants to do it, not everyone is capable of doing it, and not everyone needs to do it. It comes from a place of wanting to help people, but it's still "in tech vs not in tech".
