As I said to her; a lot of the challenges we have with work is that we expect it to deliver more than just a job for money. If money is our goal, we likely have to expect that the job isn't going to deliver life value directly. If we are looking for a job that does, we probably have to accept that there might not be a lot of money in it. Often, we expect results that just aren't possible given the conditions.
That's true. People choose professions that will earn more money. But they risk unhappiness. Many teachers today continue to do so despite not loving their profession. This creates a generation that is uneducated and uninformed.

People should pursue professions they love. It's okay if they earn less. At least they won't lose their mental health. At the same time, they won't harm others.
