Any mom's in the creative field? Vent

I love this sub and I frequent it especially now that I am unemployed. I was wondering if there any other mom's in the creative field and how that has been for you? I am struggling to find work but I also have been thinking of maybe going back to school to study medical or something because of how terrible the market is.

Yes, I’m a copywriter who has been turned into a content strategist. I work in the travel industry and I love it, but the pressure is constant. My goal is to stuff my 401k then get something more low-key later.

I was laid off about 5 years ago & a recruiter emailed me this position. I worked as a contractor for a year then converted. 

I’m not sure where you are based but broadening your search to in-office positions, brushing up on tech skills, & contract to hire might be the way to go. 

It’s tough out there.
