I’ve been working in software for almost 10 years and I’ve just started a new role this year. I’m miserable. I want to buy into a travel franchise and be an independent travel counsellor/agent. I love travel. I live the logistics. I’m a a people person.
I’ve recently become single and just turned 50. I’m terrified to make this move even though I’ve thought about it for years. Researched reputable franchises. Know my markets. Why can’t I just do this??

You can do this, our brains have a way of self protection and what may feel like a risk shows up as fear. My suggestion is take baby steps toward your goal.
For instance, do your research on franchises, talk to people who are doing what you aspire. This will create a roadmap for you and next steps. Perhaps there is a travel franchise group on Facebook you can join? Make connections.
Also, Marriott is hiring in their travel destination arena. Must love people and sales. Perhaps those two areas are more of your genius zone versus software?
Let us know what you do next?
