Getting back out there

About 3 years ago I was laid off after 18 years of being at the same company. I was a VP (fashion merchandising) and making a nice salary. I chose to take it as a blessing since I had never been home with my kids. I ended up getting my real estate license to continue trying to earn some income. The flexibility has been great as has the family time. But...the kids are now both in high school and even though I'm doing well, it's nowhere near my old salary. I'm ready to get back out there but would like to pivot into marketing/brand management or even consulting. It seems like every job posting I see (even at lower levels) is looking for more specific experience in that role than I have. Any tips on how to pivot? Thanks!
