I’m a year into a sabbatical after spending almost 20 years in tech. I’m currently seriously considering a similar career change, as daunting as it seems at first glance. It’s pretty interesting to find comment threads like this in this particular moment of my life. I think there’s something about being an empathic person in an environment that values systems thinking. As I’ve cultivated that mindset and skillset, it has become more and more obvious that the world needs systems thinkers outside of tech. As a person who benefited greatly from a therapist who helped me apply this kind of thinking to my own life, I’ve learned just how impactful that can be. I don’t know exactly what the next thing looks like yet, but it’s fascinating and informative to see others who have made or are considering the same career change. Thanks for sharing this.
