There are a few skills that all marketers should be developing right now. First and foremost, marketers need to be excellent storytellers. Telling a great story is one of the most effective ways to capture someone's attention and persuade them to take action. Secondly, marketers need to be proficient in using social media platforms. Social media is one of the best channels for communicating with customers and reaching a wider audience. Lastly, marketers should continue to develop their SEO skills. SEO is becoming increasingly important as more and more people are using search engines to find information online

laerning how to use data-driven approaches to adapt marketing strategies. Technology is increasingly becoming a part of our field so it's best to stay ahead of the curve by learning how to harness its potential

This also depends on what kind of involvement you want to have. As a creative lead there are plenty of skills to develop that aren't necessarily exclusive to a marketing career, such as leadership, communication, and general management

social media marketing is still growing and it's not too late yet to get into it, definitely consider that one

this question is pretty broad since there are a lot of niches in marketing and they each require slightly different skillsets. Copywriting, video content, analytics, etc...

problem-solving, creative execution, communications, leadership, and strategizing are all timeless skills that will set you up for success

this is a pretty good article: https://hrforecast.com/what-marketing-skills-to-look-for-when-hiring-talent/

Machine learning and advanced analytics are the future of marketing imo

Social media marketing, SEO, and content marketing. These skills are essential for any marketer looking to stay ahead of the curve and reach their target audience. Additionally, marketers should focus on developing their branding and messaging strategy and their data analysis skills.

I have PCOS, so getting pregnant has not been straightforward. We are about 6 months into trying and I am on some drugs to help. My husband basically blames me for not being pregnant yet and routinely says I am a ‘mess’ for not understanding my cycle, even though I am going by what the doctors tell me. I haven’t been stressed by having PCOS, but his constant remarks are really getting to me
