SCC224: Supplement Your Income Before Taking The Leap In Changing Careers with Erin Casey

They are somehow looking for some kind of reassurance that this transition will not be the biggest mistake of their lives. What they have is what pays the bills and put food on the table. This is understandable. Change on a whole is scary. It is unpredictable. There are no guarantees as it’s true about all aspects of life. This latter point is one that we need to remind ourselves of. This is where the tension arises. There’s that part of them that wants to do something else - that which they really love to do - and the other part is asking for reassurance that it is the right decision to make the change.
