Any advice on mid career switch??

Hello everyone, the job market has been brutal these days and here i am thinking of a career switch.

​

I have clocked about 10 years of experience in finance and am recently thinking of doing something else that is not entirely relevant. It would also mean starting at 0 again (with transferable soft skills, maybe).

​

For anyone who has attempted a career switch and it turned out better than your previous career, i would like to hear about your experience! And for those who regretted the switch, pls give me a reality check
