Didn’t know she was an AD before! She’s really talented.
As a creative you’re in a unique position to be able to hire yourself, not necessarily for money, but experience. Try illustrating or shooting your next campaign. Get credited on the work as the creative as well as the illustrator / photographer or director and that’s your first piece of work to start your new career. This is how many creatives make the transition into other crafts. It takes time but it means that you have the safety net of your current career. There are countless examples of people who have done it so I can tell you it works. If you have talent and really want it, that is.
Mentor
There are plenty. Creatives who’ve become directors. Photographers. Screenwriters. Obviously those are, in some ways, even more competitive than advertising. But if you can swing it, an escape from the “creative”’corporate rat race.
Did this 3 years ago. DM me for any questions.
It’s been happening for decades. Often great talents. Tom Lichtenheld. Stacy Wall. Sean Farrell and Ian Kalman. Andy Mahr. Author James Patterson was a CEO of JWT.

Dr Seuss, Andy Warhol, Gabriel García Marquez, to name a few. There’s actually a really long list.
