aahhh needed to hear this! outgrowing an industry you once built your identity around, being left with a bizarre mishmash of skills. trying new things often feels like starting a square one, but really it *is* a step forward <3
Thank you for giving words to those inexplicable feelings. It hurts to see that more people feel the same way but there's also strength in knowing you're not facing it alone.
So timely. Also, I think there's too much cognitive dissonance in marketing right now. Driven by our modern polycrisis. Marketers and adjacent professionals are starting to question whether they still want to be complicit in a system that's unsustainably dystopian (see also: "How to make the logo bigger when the world is burning" https://tinyurl.com/yzaytj9r).

Wherever we end up, the magic of ripping a cig with the work bestie at the end of a long day will remain. 🖤
