Who says it's ever too late for a career change? In reality, we go through so much change in our lives. How can we expect to pick a career in our early 20s and be expected to love it until we retire? Sometimes, that is the case. But most times, you learn a lot of things in life that you couldn't have possibly known about yourself at a young age, and you shouldn't have to suffer at the hands of your younger self when you are, in fact, much wiser and more mature. The truth is, you can change paths whenever you want in life. You deserve to be happy and spend every day doing what you love. But we get it. As you get older, that task becomes much more daunting. So take it from these Gen X folks below.
It all started with a man in his 50s who has run a painting business his whole life, but now that he's turned 50, he's more than sure he doesn't want to live out the rest of his working life painting. But he thinks he doesn't have any other skills and doesn't even know where to look to find another career. So these Gen Xers who've been in the same boat share their insights about changing careers after 50 and how it went for them. Just remember - it's never too late!
