Don't kill yourself, duder. Definitely start shopping your BA resume around for lower tier jobs. My friend was at an entry level position doing marketing type stuff at a local credit union, and her boss liked her so much that she just got a promotion to doing "process analysis" which is one job hop away from a real consultant position. So you really just need to get a toe in anywhere, and then bend the job toward what you really want to do. I know it sucks to go back to square one, but sometimes it's necessary.

Alternatively, consider starting your own business? My old boss started a tutoring business and did really well for himself. Something that you can bootstrap up from just one person. Maybe expand your marketing/brand business?

I feel you on the wasted degree - I spent like $15k on a MLIS the year before they cut like half of the librarian positions in California. So what? You can push past this!

Yeah, I can think of parts of that resume that you can get rid of instead (the third page list of skills)

I'd also take off the Peru thing, a "certificate" that nobody will ever have heard of reads like you did some online course and printed out a piece of paper to stick on your fridge.
