How to quell feelings of uselessness when you’re jobless?

So I quit my job in early January because I was working as a writer, ghostwriting my misogynistic, racist, idiotic bosses book, and I had enough. I have never been somebody that prioritizes money and the money is fine because I have a savings and I don’t really care if I have to dig into it, but I just feel kind of… redundant? I know this capitalistic training and guilt that has been ingrained in me. But the feelings of not being in the “workforce” etc. makes me feel sort of…. useless, so i’m wondering how to quell these feelings! Any advice is appreciated.
