The Second Act: the risk and reward of changing careers

A hairdresser trains to be a nurse. A singer shifts to art teaching. A customs agent becomes a paramedic. What did these changes involve? What was the motivation? Was it all worth the pain? And where do we find the deepest satisfaction in our work?
