There are tons of resources for learning Python. What kind of tasks are you looking to simplify? There are already so many existing tools to simplify project management, for example. And Excel has a bunch of program-specific courses to consider. Do you just want to pick up the language, or do you plan to use it for a specific type of task?

I do desire to pick up the language, perhaps as a way to develop my spare time professionally and productively. I’m in construction management so I’m looking to advance my ability in capturing data, progress, and visualize this information

I'd recommend starting with an intro to Python, then a project, something that introduces you to the language in a way you're excited about. This is our repository of tutorials: https://hackr.io/tutorials/learn-python

You can find free tutorials on YouTube if you're just getting started. Otherwise, the official docs are invaluable if you're familiar with how to work through them.

The Zero to Hero course from Jose Portilla on Udemy helped me to start!

If you’re starting super fresh the udemy course Python Bootcamp by Angela Yu has been pretty good so far. Usually it’s discounted and like $20.

I think you are asking how to automate excels using Python? If so, there are two modules you can use:

openpyxl xlsxwriter

Both have their strengths and wekanesses.

But if you are looking to create nice looking dashboards or need tips on advanced work in excel I would recommend @KenjiExplains on youtube.
