I left my 'Day Job' in community services in my 50s, after burning out (again) and decided to have a shot at turning my love of singing into a job. Eight years later I'm directing three choirs and teaching singing from my home studio... and taking more holidays with my husband who is already retired :-)

And the best part is I'm helping other people achieve their dreams too eg one of my students just performed in her first professional opera... and she's aged in her 80s!

What if it's too late to do what you've always wanted? I mean, physically you just couldn't do your dream job anymore?
