Sounds like you are being pro-active and "on the right track."  You have a lot of talent and a good plan.    I wish you much success and all the best.

@Laura14, you have a great attitude and that will help you a lot. It's not easy to lose a job (career) you've had for so many years. Many of us have been in the same situation, so we feel true empathy for what you've gone through. You should be very proud of your can-do attitude and your decision to move forward with something you truly love. The very best to you! I have a feeling you'll be successful with your new chosen path.

@Laura14  I’m wishing you all the best as you take the first step on your new journey. Sometimes things like this is the kick in the pants we need, we become too complacent.

@Laura14Congrats on a fresh, new direction!

@Laura14 ...I would guess that the first step is the hardest..and you already took that step!!  Good luck to you.

Thanks for the well wishes!  

Here's hoping I get that phone call and can start in my new field right away.  It's been so long since I applied for a job, I about forgot how to do this.  My first time ever applying online and then email requests and online assessments.  I would make a millennial proud.    

PS: Still have a real resume (5 copies) printed up on bond paper if needed.  😂😂😂

Read your first post, and am very happy for you.

One can only sit and curse the darkness so long before bitterness settles in.  

I hope lighting a candle of your own will help you find your purpose, and regain your well-being.

Did a similar thing myself, made a plan, left on my own terms, started a business, no regrets.  Best wishes to you, keep in touch.

Am sure you'll do great Laura!
