Nurse wanting a career change but fear i’m too late?
I’m 28 and living in the UK, I have just finished my nursing degree. I’ve worked in healthcare for 7 + years. I have always enjoyed drawing and have quite a few tattoos, the culture is very appealing to me and I always used to say to people who asked that I wanted to be a tattoo artist before I started my nursing degree.
Lately I have been feeling lost with my career choice and to be totally honest I wish I had done something different and followed my true passion of creating.
I think it would take at least a year or two to really get to a good level of drawing to build my portfolio. The idea of looking for an apprenticeship at the age of 30 seems really daunting and I almost feel silly planning it out because I’m late to the game and wonder if it’s actually a realistic option?
Any tips or if anyone else has felt this way / been in a similar position with wanting to change career how do you deal with it?
