Am I dumb for wanting to move into wealth advisory (being miserable in my current position) just a a recession is around the corner? In other words, I feel like these positions are more sensitive to recessions and I will be the first in line as I bring the least amount of value given my lack of experience.

No, you're not dumb. People need help during times like these. They might be afraid of changing because of market volatility, but they also might be looking to change because of how their adviser has handled them and their account(s) this year.

People are generally not afraid of second opinions, especially from someone with your experience, so I wouldn't shy away from the career if it's really what you want and you want it for the right reasons.
