Do you regularly read the writings of farmers and roughnecks? I didn't get into tech until I was 40 but I definitely was going through some of the same personal growth as the writer when I was about 30 and if I had a blog I probably would have written about it.
I taught guitar for three years to groups of undergrads. I noticed that most lefties had no problem playing a right-handed guitar. However, occasionally I would have a student that just struggled mightily and things clicked when they switched to a left-handed guitar.
I went to a Don Ross workshop once and there was a left handed player there doing the upside down RH guitar thing, which was especially impressive due to the style of music and having to play the bass notes with their pinky.
