Stuck in Dead-End Job, Dreaming of Career Change 😔💭

Hey everyone, I'm feeling really lost right now and could use some honest advice. I've been working in accounting for 8 years, and honestly? I'm miserable. 😞 Every morning I drag myself to the office, staring at spreadsheets that feel meaningless. I keep thinking about what I'd do if I could start over. Maybe I'd have become a teacher or a graphic designer - something that actually sparks joy. The statistics about workplace disengagement are real, and I refuse to be another number in that sad count. 📊 But here's my dilemma: I'm 32 with a mortgage and responsibilities. The thought of starting fresh terrifies me, but staying feels like slowly dying inside. Has anyone successfully made a major career pivot later in life? 🤔 I'm desperate for your stories and advice. How did you find the courage to change paths? 💪✨ #CareerChange #WorkplaceStruggles #LifeAdvice
