Considering selling a large investment position to rebalance and diversify

I have a large investment in a single actively managed fund with a high expense ratio, which I'm considering selling to move to a diversified, low-cost index fund portfolio

What I wish I knew
"More about the tax implications of selling a large position with a high embedded gain"
If I could tell you one thing
"Consider consulting a tax professional before making a decision to sell a large investment position"

Clear regret.
The downsides outweighed what was gained.
