Part-time work history - major issue?

Hello,

I've thought about becoming an OTR driver for years and I'm considering either attending a private CDL course or applying for a paid company training program. After browsing this forum I realized I may not be hireable due to my work history over the last 10 years. I've alternated working full-time with part-time self-employment. I managed to get by because I lived overseas in low-cost areas (you may have heard the term "digital nomad"). Essentially, I can show earnings each year dating back to 2013 or so but it may look suspicious that I was able to get by on such low overall earnings.

I suppose I'll end up just speaking to recruiters about this but if anyone has first-hand knowledge/experience with this type of issue I'd appreciate any info you can share. My big concern is that after researching everything I'd really rather go through a private CDL course but obviously won't if I'm unhireable.
