Graphic designer thinking about getting out of design/marketing/advertising
I'm 40 and been a graphic designer for 15+ years now. I've worked at ad agencies, tech and other in-house clients. I'm feeling burnt out and my latest contract is coming up in a couple months. I don't know if I have it in me to find another role and keep hustling looking for a full-time role in an industry that's unstable and getting harder and harder to find work.
I honestly want to get out of marketing completely. I know I could move to project management, strategy, etc but that feels like a lateral move.
I've considered teaching as I could roll some of my experience into that, but honestly anything that's stable and pays decent I would consider. Ideally something that I could get into quickly as I don't want to be back in school again for too long. I'm down with trade/union jobs, healthcare, I'm open and looking to work to live and not the others way around
