I've seen a lot more contracting things going at the moment (mostly on LinkedIn) and with having a few years in full time employment, it seems like contracting will be easier to jump into as opposed to building a portfolio for freelance work. Thanks for the informative reply :)
I'm the CTO of international video agency Wooshii and I run an educational media brand called Skill Pathway. I also occasionally chat to people on my podcast, The Learning Developers Podcast.
You're so welcome. Contracting will definitely be an easier and lower-risk jump for someone like yourself looking to make the jump. It's effectively better paid, less secure full/part time work.
And once again, the job will always be there! You can always go back to being full time, right?
Best of luck with your journey friend!
