Navigating Ups and Downs in a Copywriting Career - Tammy's Story (Episode 144)

Navigating Ups and Downs in a Copywriting Career - Tammy's Story (Episode 144)

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.
