re: Considering rebooting my life

For those who have changed career fields, how did you determine what career path to go down?

I got bored and tired of practicing. I had plenty of off and on high-end bartending experience, so I chose a place to go that needed that desperately and in a location that I wanted to be. That was just a foot in the door until I could find something else to transition towards.

How did you leverage the need for additional schooling/training to get the new career you wanted vs the financial need to support yourself now?

---

Didn't really need to. Just interviewed and sold myself well. Small companies will take chances on charming, seemingly competent people.

How did that pivot work for you in your sense of personal satisfaction, work/life balance, etc?

Happier than I've ever been in my life. Now, I get to spend most of my days fishing, hiking, rafting, golfing, skiing, etc.,

Did you have to relocate to a different part of the country, and if so, how did the change of scenery impact your life going forward?

Would you rather live in north Alabama or in SW Montana?
