Is it breaking into tech or software development specifically? It seems like your goal is primarily around having a job with a flexible schedule. There are a plethora of options and likely more roles that don't require 'hard' skills if you are open to finding a role in tech in general. I personally broke into tech first, and then pursued software development via a bootcamp. After graduation, I didn't go into a dev role but into a product manager role instead. And well, I actually never ended up with a dev role and still work in tech with the flexibility of working from home and setting my own schedule :)
