Despite willingly accepting a salary reduction for his new position, Stacey shares how the flexibility in his working hours has allowed him to prioritize quality time with his family. Consequently, he no longer feels the need to relentlessly pursue monetary gain as he did in his younger years.
Stacey highlights the unique and supportive culture within his workplace, which is not commonly found in other businesses. Individuals genuinely care for one another and there is no room for backstabbing or rivalry. Working in such a harmonious environment has elevated his overall job satisfaction.
Embarking on a career in the art gallery industry was a significant leap into unfamiliar territory for Stacey. However, an enlightening moment triggered by his wife made him realize just how well he had adapted to his new role.
Stacey recalls, “The proof that I had adapted was when my wife said, ‘You seem genuinely excited and passionate about it.’ It’s a whole new world for me, completely different from what I was accustomed to. I spend my days surrounded by artwork, which may not always be my personal preference, but the improved state of my mental health and overall well-being makes it a much more fulfilling experience.”
The gallery manager firmly believes that his transition from the corporate world to the art industry was the right decision. The art world has proven to be equally, if not more, exhilarating than his previous corporate endeavors.
He concludes, “We work hard and we play hard, and that’s truly invigorating.”
