I'd seriously consider chasing a passion. What excites you? What are your strengths? Life is too short to just endure. If you stay in your current job and don't chase something else, will you regret it? You could always start part time.
I'm going through a transition now myself. I'm 44 and my real estate business is the strongest it's ever been with 20+ years invested, but it's not what I want to do for the rest of my life. I'm 9 months into a professional coaching certification and I'm putting that business together and I have my first paying client. I love it and I believe it's what I'm meant to do! When I coach it takes me to the highest levels of energy. It just doesn't feel like work. I've never felt that way about real estate.
However, wherever we go, there we are. We can't assume the grass will be greener if the stress is intrinsic and rooted in our beliefs. It's very possible for us to "show up" energetically the same way in a new adventure. If the stressors tend to be outer and out of your control, then moving on may be best.
Imagine a coach recommending a coach. HA Part of my certification has been coaching and being coached. After being coached by my peers for 50+ hours, it's been absolutely life changing for me. A professional coach can simply take you to a place you can't take yourself consciously. I've been trained to implement an attitudinal assessment. It's extremely accurate in regards to creating awareness in how we show up energetically under different circumstances. It roots out the beliefs that are holding us back. That awareness is the first step in changing how we approach circumstances and show up energetically. It's very possible to go from a response of stress to a anabolic or building up energy instead. It creates awareness around your strengths as well so you can tap into them more often.
You may want to consider a transitional coach or a business coach. Anyway, I hope this helps in some way.
