Have you tried starting a business first? Rather than leave the profession right away, you could take a risk of starting something you enjoy doing while still employed and if it does will you could make the transition then.
The easiest way (without a job specific degree like nursing) just like it probably was 15 years ago is to know someone or have that networking connection. Ask your friends who have jobs what they do, do they like it, are there openings or a referral program, etc.
You seem to be just downvoting all the helpful replies. Not many jobs will be easier than teaching tbh, I can't think of a single other one that gives you an entire season off each year
