I’ve hit that point in my career where raises don’t feel like progress anymore. I make good money, but I’m bored. I keep thinking about doing something completely different but the idea of starting over scares me. Has anyone actually pulled that off and been happier?

Coming to Ireland I started over, I'm an EU citizen and had my certificates and diplomas, still I needed to start all over in my fifties, but did it anyway.
When you start all over and make it, you prove to yourself, your stronger and show it is possible.

Unfortunately, companies won't hire someone outside the industry. Unless, you have very niche experience.

You could try another company in the sector in Ireland but for something really interesting and challenging, I would recommend looking at job opportunities in other countries. A new culture and environment would be great.
