I am Not Quite Sure What To Do For College and What The Process is Like

I am in the 7th grade and I am just beginning to explore my future career, what are some careers and helpful next steps I should consider based on my passions and interests? At school, I am most interested in music, English, and science and math when it isn't to easy, but I don't think that I would want to continue doing math throughout my life and have it be a big part of my life and career. My hobbies include baking, singing and songwriting, acting and running. I am really interested in solving problems and mysteries, especially proving a point, but also hands on work. I would also love to go to a college with a good cross country program. A topic that I am passionate is law and medicine, but I want to weigh out my options and see what else I could do as a career because I don't have to make a decision quite yet. What are some careers options that best align with these interests and what are some helpful next steps I can do in the near future?

How can you find fulfillment in whatever career you decide to pursue?

I think it's important to do what you love. But it isn't always so simple, so I was wondering how you can balance that with working a job because it provides financial security. For example, I want to pursue law school and become a lawyer, even though that wasn't my first choice for something I would thoroughly enjoy doing.
