Hi Guys,

I have been working in the field for few years now. The team is great, the work culture is great, the experiences are amazing, but the pay…I have never got enough money to say honestly I can afford my further pursuits, goals, dreams. That’s why I feel like I cant fully develop my both private and professional self without funds. I have been doing other side hustles like tutoring and affiliate , but time wise its been challenging to juggle between family life and work. Ok, now to the point. I am thinking about switching careers. In my country (based in Europe) there is no way to run private social work like some of you do. Therefore Im stuck and restricted by the system. How to earn more?

Ive been considering getting into psychotherapy since social workers have a great amount of real life experience and professional skills to bring to psychotherapy. I know its a long process, but I can be really self-disciplined and patient when I set a clear goal (again thanks to social work⭐).

Im lame at technology so IT jobs are absolute NO.

What other options are available? Im curious if you share similar doubts or have found a sensible solution. Please let me know in the comments below.

Thanks 🙏
