Considering a career change from teaching to hairstyling

I'm unhappy with my current university major and career path as a teacher, but I'm considering a career change to hairstyling, which aligns with my creative interests and skills

What I wish I knew
"I wish I had explored my creative interests earlier in life"
If I could tell you one thing
"Don't be afraid to take a risk and pursue a career that aligns with your passions and skills"
