Feeling lost after a year out of the workforce

Struggled to remember past projects and skills after a year out of the workforce

What I wish I knew
"How to maintain my skills and knowledge during a break"
If I could tell you one thing
"Start with simple projects related to your hobbies and do some LeetCode to get back into the swing of things"
