exploring career outside IB

Hi all. I am looking to explore careers outside of IB. I secured a banking internship but am growing increasingly concerned about IB hours. Curious if you have any recommendations of other roles that involve the valuation aspect of banking without the hours. I am a creative person so I am open to jobs that involve that as well. Would consulting potentially be a better fit? I am very interested in VC but thinking in order to get into VC I need to do banking first. Thoughts?
