How did you get into woodworking?

So I (17F) have always been into making and creating things. It started out as making dollhouses for my dolls using styrofoam and board pins when i was 7, to eventually spending way too much time on youtube watching people make furniture and log cabins.

Ive been trying to get more into carpentry and learning new techniques, and i really wanna build something nice like a nightstand or doghouse or something, but i have ZERO equipment and ZERO experience.

What would you recommend to a complete starter like me? Any books, any tools, what would should i be using for practice etc etc? It feels a little embarassing to ask all this bcoz idek what questions i should be asking but idk i gotta start somewhere?
