Quarter-life crisis has me completely checked out at work….any ideas/options?

-1 year audit experience at Big 4
-3 years accounting advisory experience at another Big 4
-Will make manager January 2025
-Already have CPA, based in CA

I’m good at accounting, but hate it and much rather go into something relationship based like sales, or true consulting. Open to pivots into finance but feel like if I wait until manager I’m pigeon-holed into accounting/finance manager roles.

Appreciate the input in advance.

I'm SVP/strategy for a PR agency. I moved into PR, Healthcare, and Strategic Planning only 3 years ago. An agency recruiter is trying to convince me to move into a GSVP account role, assuring me "at that level it's all strategy." (I dont think she understands the words she's using. Or that I'm qualified). But long-term, knowing account roles are so much more plentiful than brand planning in PR, I'm wondering if I should start thinking about account. Anyone here moved from strategy to account?
