Hello!
While reading this post I couldnt help but understand every emotion you are going through. I’m currently in a very similar situation. I also moved to LA to persue my career of doing hair and makeup for film. I tried it out, and quickly realized it wasnt for me. I now am working full time at a salon, and while its very rewarding I also realize its draining me. Ive been in this indusrty for 10 years now, and I know deep inside there are things out there I want to try. I find myself putting my needs aside because im too tired and drained from a full work day.
My advice to you…and to myslef, is take the leap of faith! Start writing down skills that your good at, and skills that you enjoy. It seems you already have a clear vision of yoga training and writitng. THATS GREAT! Maybe swith to a shorter work week to begin with, that way you arent going to be finalcillay stressed (which can also drain you from wanting to practice yoga and write)
THen, you can have an extra day to pursure those creative skills that fulfill you. Eventually you can keep working on what feels right and things will fall into place as they should. I am a firm believer in putting out into the universe exactly what you want, vision it, hold on to that vision andlet the universe make the way. Small steps towards your goal. I hope this helps!!!
