Changing careers at 6 years into a job, is it realistic? - first time posting

My layoff made me rethink whether to stay in my field. There are 6 people counting on me, so I am trying to be careful. I have good customer skills and I am comfortable with spreadsheets. How did you start?

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it last year, and it got easier once I kept a simple log of every call and form.
