Have a college degree, considering going into the trades?

Title. I have a BS in Finance and Risk Management, and currently work in sales. The money is great, but I’m not a huge fan of the day to day. I used to work construction growing up, and although I kind of hated it, I loved it at the same time. Being outside and working with my hands gave me this kind of end of the day satisfaction that is hard to come by in office jobs.

I am considering going into the trades, something like plumbing or HVAC, or something else specialized. Really want something that is both intellectually stimulating, and gets me outside. Any advice on careers like that? I’m 23 as well so I’m far from married to any path right now, just want to know what else is out there.
