Leverage Content Creation Skills for Digital Marketing/Content Strategy

The user is successfully self-sustaining through content creation and wants to plan for a new career in late 20s. This is an excellent opportunity to leverage current freelance content creation experience and portable skills (storytelling, marketing, editing, audience insight) to transition into a stable career in digital marketing, social media management, or content strategy. Instead of starting 'from zero' with a new degree, the user can build on existing strengths. Saving aggressively during this period provides financial runway for future pivots, potentially part-time studies or bootcamps in digital marketing to formalize skills and gain certifications. This path offers more stability and growth while utilizing enjoyable aspects of current work.
