Transition finance operations to in-house or creative roles for better balance.

Given the user's unfulfillment and stress in finance operations, transitioning to an 'in-house' finance role at a non-financial company or exploring careers that are 'somewhat creative or at least interesting or low stress' offers better work-life balance. Leveraging finance skills for corporate finance, analysis, or project management within a different industry could reduce stress while maintaining decent compensation, even with a potential pay cut from bonuses.
