It's certainly going to be difficult to go from 0 to 38 miles. I'd suggest starting gradually, like drive to work / bike home, bike to work / drive the car home, and drive both ways on Wednesday to get a break in. Keep that up for a while, and maybe over 6-12 months you'll be able to extend the bike commute.
