First off, understanding the different data structure from a high level is mandatory. I would understand the difference between a dataframe, series, and index are. Further, learn how numpy's ndarrays play a role.
From there, unfortunately, I had to learn by doing...or rather struggling. It was one question at a time to stack overflow, like "how to filter on a column in pandas". Maybe in the modern era of LLMs, this part might be easier. And eventually, I learned some patterns and internalized the data structures.
Thank you for taking the time, the perspective is helpful. Same answer as everything else then.
Just be more stubborn than the problem. =)
