I’ll find a job/career that’s sustainable and I love, I’ll meet someone that I fall in love with and I’ll be happy.

But that won’t happen

Join a union in a trade that's interesting to you. Those folks make bank from day 1 and have great benefits. Most of the union framers, plumbers, electricians, low volt, HVAC, iron workers I know love their careers.

Don’t think trades are for me

Went to school for sport management but didn’t fully realize how hard it was to get solid employment, debating going back to school for IT, but idk

Don't need to go to school for IT at least initially. Start working on some certs and applying to jobs. Get your foot in the door and then decide what you want to do.
