Possibility of Jumping Ship

Goodmorning! I hope everyone had a wonderful 4th! I need a bit of opinions and advice on what I should do.

I'm currently doing IT Infrastructure such as routers, switches blah blah blah but I have ran into a dilemma. I see people all the time talk about chasing the fire within and that's what I'm trying to do but don't quite know where to get started in an industry I don't have much formal training in. I got into IT because of the teamwork and problem solving it takes as well as an interest in technology I developed when I was around 21-22. 

Recently I have come to LOVE helping people find creative ways to finance their homes and investment properties. I just feel more of a fulfillment from doing this now than my IT work. I've done some research online and have found professions such as MLO and others, but I feel I would be more trying to sell and market myself than I would be crunching numbers and helping people who thought they couldn't can.

So I'm asking the community if there is a position in lending that might be able to met my wants/needs a little bit closer

TIA!
