The third instalment of my guest interviews is with Amar, who left a seven year career in the finance industry to pursue full time his writing side-hustle that had taken off during the pandemic.

In the episode we dive into: the expectations of turning 30 on your career, how to shift your identity from the prestige and normalisation of being in a ‘good, well-respected’ position, how to deal with managing other people’s opinions around your career change, and Amar shares the personal process he went through when making the big decision to leave his safe job to become a full-time entrepreneur.

During our conversation we also give some practical tips for anyone feeling the pull to go and do something different. It’s all about knowing that you have the freedom to change and develop in your career, no matter what you thought you would be when you grew up.

 

This is a great story for anyone who wants to leave the corporate world, or has a passion or drive to do something that is totally different to what they originally studied, trained and worked in and wants to be inspired.
