Double majored in business/accounting and psychology. Went into financial auditing (not my passion but paid well). Hated my life for 12 years. Decided to go for a graduate degree in social work. Am now a very happy psychotherapist even though I make less money.

Moral of the story? It’s never too late to switch if you end up hating your original choice.

I went from a prestigious role in tech to a much lower-rung one that isn't so demanding. I'd rather have a pleasant life than a large paycheck. Went from miserable to very happy.
