I used to work in finance. Now I'm a university lecturer. I was 40 when I started working as a lecturer.

Went from unemployed anthropologist (SAHM) to licensed clinical social worker/therapist at 56. 10 years in my new field and I love it.

From secondary school teacher to paramedic at 40. Absolutely no regrets
