Key Points

Take a step back and remember that feeling stuck in a situation is not the end of the world; explore other options without rushing into a decision.
When pursuing a passion, be mindful that turning it into a career can change your relationship with it, and it's okay to step back and rediscover what you enjoy about it.
Trust in your ability to make decisions for yourself; knowing you've successfully navigated change before can provide the confidence to do it again.
