How to quit a successful career

THIS IS KAREN
She devoted her whole life to philology and teaching: she graduated from a pedagogical college, then a university. She taught, wrote scientific papers and was generally far from design professionally. But I have always felt a great interest in interior design.

Now the hobby has turned into a favorite profession.
Even during her studies, Karen successfully completed 5 projects. She is happy to help people live in the interior of their dreams.
THE COURSE CHANGED
KAREN'S LIFE

HOW DID KAREN
GET TO THE COURSE
OF MARY BLACK?
Karen worked as a teacher of philology and built an academic career. Design in her life was present only as a hobby: she loved to watch thematic programs on TV, subscribed to designers on Instagram. Friends and acquaintances trusted her taste and asked for advice, when they made repairs. Intuitively, not knowing the norms of ergonomics, Karen found successful solutions ... But she didn't even think that she could design professionally.

When Karen was writing her PhD and preparing for her defense, there was more free time, and her hobby turned into a passion. She started watching webinars of designers, and while watching one of them, something clicked in her head: "Why not? After all, this area is very interesting to me! When, if not now?"

It was a webinar by Mary Black. So Karen decided to take the course and try her hand at design.
DOUBT AND DIFFICULTIES DURING THE COURSE
Karen's main fear at the beginning of the course: will it be possible to keep up with everything? After all, she had a main job, three sons, a big house, many daily duties. Here Karen appreciated the advantages of online learning:
  • You can watch lessons and do assignments at your convenience;
  • The lesson can be stopped or reviewed at any time;
  • The chat is always supportive and helpful
Karen notes: all the information on the course is to the point, without too much theory. Thanks to this, everything was done on time.
PERSONAL VICTORY
Karen admitted that she is most proud of having mastered 3D visualization.
Prior to that, she had only elementary programs and skills. Work in Homestyler became a real test for Karen, but also a personal achievement.
FIRST PROJECTS OF KAREN
During the training, 5 projects were completed. Two of them have already been implemented: this is a free apartment project in a new building and a summer kitchen project for oneself.

The rest, already paid, projects - in the process of implementation of repair work.
3D VISUALIZATION OF KAREN'S FIRST PROJECTS
Karen's words of encouragement to those who are considering whether to take the course:
I want to wish you not to be afraid, but to go towards your goal right now. Because everyday things never become less, and time - more. This I know for myself. There will always be everyday problems, and time is irretrievably running out.

Yes, it will not be easy to master new information. But if you work a little, the result will not keep you waiting.
