Pivoting from accounts payable clerk to something new - what worked for you?

After 9 years as an accounts payable clerk I am thinking about moving into a different field. My family is supportive but nervous. Did you take a pay cut?

You likely have more transferable skills than you think. Write down what you did, not what the job title said.

Try a small project in the new field before committing. It told me a lot about whether I would enjoy it.
