Lookback: 2 years since current job

Stuck in a stable but unfulfilling job

I feel trapped in a job that's not my passion and can't afford to leave.

What I wish I knew
"How to break into a new industry without connections"
If I could tell you one thing
"Consider networking and building relationships before looking for a job change"
