I had actually been wanting to quit since the first year.
Like most people graduating in the wake of the late '00s economic crash, I felt grateful I had managed to get a job, even if its connection to my preferred industry was a little tenuous.

But even so, I didn’t expect making the decision to quit to be so difficult.
At first, wanting to quit felt ungrateful. And after a while I was flooded with new fears and doubts. Would it be the right thing to do? Am I "giving up" if I quit? Is it too late to start something new?

And the longer I thought about it, the older I was becoming.
Twenty-seven is by no means old, but when you've dedicated some of your most formative years to a career, starting again can feel like you're racing against time.
