Well, it sounds like she is already an autodidact.

You can be successful without a formal education provided you work deeply in one subject and find rewards from your effort.

She needs to figure out what she really loves to do and then totally concentrate on it and find mentors to guide her. It may be that formal education will parallel her interests, and maybe not. She may need to emigrate.

The best advice is for her to follow her interests and then devote herself to something deeply.
