36m, 100k income but HATE my job. . Any of you guys in my spot take a pay cut to manage stress? How’d it go?

Basically title… I’m married, no kids, not gonna have kids, no mortgage, make about 100k but fuckin hate my job and seem to keep hating it more every year. My wife and I live pretty modestly in a HCOL area and we have a decent networth and savings, and have a monthly surplus now to keep saving at our current income. I’m thinking really hard about applying for a less mentally taxing job, I’d love to work outside with plants/trees or even just washing cars for a while, maybe like a sabbatical from the higher income, but part of me thinks it’s going to be a bad decision in the long run for… reasons. Anyone ever done anything like this and how’d it end up going?
