Educational Journey

I have posted, in the past, about my academic ventures. I love learning. I have college degrees. I have certifications. But the thing that makes me happiest is free learning. I feel I, actually, learn more and better with self-directed learning. I am about to take on a new educational venture. I am going to take classes in herbal remedies and natural healing. My biggest problem is time constraints. I am so busy, I barely get all the day's tasks accomplished. I am still trying to learn Spanish, but I am not moving as quickly as I had hoped. So it is probably crazy to embark another educational journey. However, for some reason, I can't walk away from this. Anyone else out there overloaded, but don't want to slow down?

I saw some ‘free’ classes being offered online but when you start inquiring it’s not really free and you have to pay some ridiculous amount of money

Yes, most of them are like that. The "free" part is just to reel you in.

I'm semi-retired. Just doing some freelance and volunteering work once in a while.

That sounds a really useful course to undertake. I'm sure you'll enjoy it.
