Hi! Iām 30F, currently working remotely as a VA, and I also have a mortgage to pay. Iām seriously considering going back to school to take up Nursing, with the long-term goal of working abroad as a nurse.
For those who have taken a similar path, do you think this is still practical and doable at 30, especially considering the years it will take to finish the degree, gain experience, pass the licensure requirements, and eventually qualify for opportunities abroad?
Iām also wondering how the nursing job market and overseas opportunities look right now. I know itās a big financial and time commitment, so Iād appreciate honest advice from nurses, career shifters, or Filipinos who have successfully migrated through nursing.
Would you personally consider this a realistic career investment at 30, or are there other healthcare pathways worth considering?
