Changing careers at 4 years into a job, is it realistic? - 12 months and counting

I want to move from copywriter to something with more stability. This is my first time dealing with any of this. I have a little time and a small budget for training. Did you take a pay cut?

I took a small pay cut for a year, and it was worth it for the growth afterwards.

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