I'm glad that I clicked your article link on Medium Daily email.πβ¨(Normally, I don't read it π.)
I'm on a similar journey, and some parts of your article are what I'm facing now. I will be 37 years old this year, and I quit my job one month ago. My dream is not to be an entrepreneur but to build my project to fulfil another passion out of my job experience and also do something to return to my local community, such as sharing people my knowledge. I just started it all by myself βΊοΈ, so I have those noises that you mentioned π.
Thanks for sharing, and I wish you all the best in your journey.πͺ
