My husband is head of household, but does not earn an income, how can I change head of household to myself?

You do not understand the filing status of head of household.  Head of Household is not the "boss of the family" in the Fred Flintstone sense.  

 If you are legally married and living together, file a joint tax return.

Married Filing Jointly is usually better, even if one spouse had little or no income. When you file a joint return, you and your spouse will get the married filing jointly standard deduction of $29,200 (+ $1550 for each spouse 65 or older)  for 2024. You are eligible for more credits including education credits, earned income credit, child and dependent care credit, and a larger income limit to receive the child tax credit.
