Changing careers at 17 years into a job, is it realistic? - what worked for you?

I want to move from social media manager to something with more stability. I have been trying to stay organised about it. My family is supportive but nervous. Did you take a pay cut?

You likely have more transferable skills than you think. Write down what you did, not what the job title said.

I began with informational chats, then a short online course, then a related entry-level role. It took about 11 months.
