144. Navigating Ups and Downs in a Copywriting Career - Tammy's Story

When Tammy was burned out from teaching, she decided to give
herself a little room to decide what her next career move was.
Like many people making a major career shift, she fought the
temptation to go back into education. But, when friends told her
she could make money writing, she leaned into her copywriting
career, joining the CCA and blocking out the internal voices
telling her to go back to her old career.


Tammy joined the CCA in May, was pitching by August, and landed
her first freelance clients by September. She started a full-time
job at an ad agency starting in January 2023—but then something
unexpected happened. Listen in to hear Tammy’s incredible story
and her inspiring mindset tips for working through unexpected
challenges.
