Being a therapist is my T's second career - he came into it later in his life. I don't know if he would specifically use the word "calling", but I know that he loves what he does, he's good at it, and he is able to use excellent self-care to not become overwhelmed by what he does.

He has told me (repeatedly) how much he loves what he does. I always think that it must feel so good to feel so good about how he is spending his time
