Does anyone have recommendations for who to speak with about next steps in my career? Or questions I need to ask myself? I love my current role and have a lot to look forward to in the near future, but I know this is not my forever company. I can’t decide if getting my MBA, PMP, or if I want to stay in my current industry or current type of role would be what I want. Should I just focus on what I have going? I’m 6 years in, and it feels like whatever comes next will impact my career trajectory.

It’s a total shift that would really heal my work-life balance, job satisfaction and budget. My only fear is that I would not be using the license and degree that I worked so hard for.
