What are some realistic possibilities for working from home for someone with a chronic illness and little experience? (lemmy.world)

So I developed a chronic illness years ago. It makes working outside the house pretty much impossible for me. I ran my own business for a good while, but it's struggling. I have all kinds of random skills and abilities, but I don't really see how they fit together in the context of employed work, so for all intents and purposes, I would have to consider myself as someone with little experience regardless of what I might do.

In the meantime, I've been studying web development, and that's probably what I'm going to try to do, but I was just wondering what other realistic possibilities are there out there for someone in my situation? I just want to see if there's anything I'm not considering.

I can only speak to my experience, but I got lucky that “CSM” really started evolving as a role around me and I was basically already doing it, so it was an easy transition. That said, you’d need to go back to a customer facing role. I know there are Associate CSM roles now which I think is basically an entry-level csm role. It might be easier for you to start talking to people within the company you are currently at. If they know your experience and skills, it would be easier to go for a role change from training to csm. Once you have that first CSM role under your belt and on your resume, you’re in. Then just work your ways up the levels of csm.
