I think my ideal job (if I switch back to full time) would involve maybe 1 or 2 days in an office each week, the rest remote. And flexible hours. But I could be looking for a unicorn (not ready for that search yet).

Maybe you could try to find a forum for editors or have a look on Reddit for advice. Perhaps also just email someone local and ask if they could mentor you.
Could joining a co working place to get work done instead of staying home work for you? . Or maybe you could go out to work at a coffee shop. Even there you have the same staff you could chat to.. So it could help with isolation. I tipped £2 once at Starbucks and the manager automatically became a golden retriever.
